From Morocco to California's Classrooms
It started on a crowded street in Morocco, where our founder witnessed a father and son performing together! weaving comedy and storytelling to a crowd erupting with laughter. He felt the universal power of joy, and never forgot it.
When he arrived in California, that feeling found its purpose. After volunteering at a children's camp and watching a simple puppet bring a shy kid to tears of laughter, he knew exactly what he was meant to do. Today, three of his own children perform with the company! making California Kids Fun a truly family mission.
Family Business Since 1998
"Inspired by a father-son duo on a Moroccan street, we chose a puppet as our partner. Together, we set out to bring genuine joy to California's children — one show at a time."
— Founder, California Kids Fun
