Don and Kathy Burns of Burns and Company have been entertaining children for over 25 years.
Kathy was an elementary school teacher before she began to travel as a professional ventriloquist.
Don is a professional artist and he uses his craft to build unique props and beautiful sets. Don and Kathy have produced entertaining, educational child care shows that ‘Wow’ their audiences. Each show is custom designed to meet the needs of the appropriate age group.
You Can Teach a Child to Read at Any Age! 2 year old's can learn to read with this method. I even watched an 18 month sound out simple words. It can improve your older children's reading skill as well.

TESTIMONIALS
The program was interactive which included the participation of each student within our ACES Program. The show taught character traits very well by allowing the children to answer questions, to show respect by listening to each other’s answers.
