Kids to have a ball at folk festival
The Kids Fest is part of the event held in Yungaburra each year and offers children some fantastic activities throughout the three days from 25-27 October.

Kids can chill at the TAFE Kaleidoscope Stage where they will get to enjoy young talents, music, and storytelling for kids or create and play with arts and crafts, dress-ups, face- painting, palm leaf weaving, and puppet play.
Some of the great activities planned for kids include:
Facepainting by Crystal: Have your face painted ready for the Parade. Join the parade, create your costume, make a puppet and join Janggaburru, Bugzy Bumblebee, Dragonflies and the Playful Puppets in the Parade, as the whole festival comes together to celebrate, filling the street with colour, music and merriment. Be sure to bring your Kazoo to take part in the Great Kazoo Challenge.
Bruce Watson - ‘Are We There Yet?’: Children delight in Bruce’s songs about blobfish, vampires, talking underpants, toddlers-with-attitude and food. And he asks the eternal question: Are we there yet? There’ll be plenty of audience involvement. BYO knock, knock jokes.
Woody’s World Bush Cabaret: Join Woody in this engaging show - it’s a kaleidoscope of old-school fun that blends music, puppetry, theatre, ukulele playing and loads of participation.
Kids Ukulele Fun: Australia’s top uke experience for kids has already inspired over 10,000 young musicians and their families. Woody’s all about turning everyone into music makers, not just listeners. Come strum along and discover your inner rockstar.
Bush Dancing for Kids and Families: Grab your partner and join in with the Heal and Toe and other dances. Woody will teach you all the steps so you can swing your partner until the cows come home.
Bugzy Bumblebee: Bugzy brings wonder and joy to the festival with her happy energy and lots of bubbles. All weekend throughout the festival site.
Jack’s Noisy Day with Sarah: Join Jack as he embarks on a noisy adventure, making uproarious sounds for every letter of the alphabet from ‘A to Z’.
