Peek behind the scenes of our newest music video, just released on our YouTube channel, “Wow! Look at that Cloud!”

This song reinforces the concept of different kinds of clouds and encourages kids to have fun exploring the cloudy skies!

So long, Bentonville! I had a wonderful time at the Bentonville Film Festival for the Crayola x BFF kids content pitch contest, thank you so much to @bfffestival and @crayolastudiosofficial for bringing me out to the festival. I had a blast exploring the town and meeting so many warm and friendly folk who live there, thank you for welcoming me!

Big congrats to Nicole for winning the contest and a round of applause for the finalists, everyone gave it their all 💜

I didn't win but I ended up learning some new things in the process and unlocking skills I didn't realize I had (like memorizing a pitch, or catching and releasing a very large beetle that followed me into the hotel room) 🪲

Until next time! ✌️

Z and the Clubhouse Kids!

I spent the past year and a half producing this puppet web series as part of my role at the Sanford Harmony Institute at ASU. The fact that I got to call this "work" is incredible, and I approached every day with gratitude. This is one of the biggest projects Ive ever put together, and it took a lot of energy and the best people I could gather to make it happen.

I even got to puppeteer a worm, alongside @misterlott and the incredible Liz Hara!

Families visited the set, some having never seen a puppet before. Folks had wedding pictures taken on set...it was a joyous place full of laughter and creative magic, and tons of sweet treats.

Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen! Stay tuned for more!

This weekend at @kcreptheatre we opened ‘The Wizard of Oz’ based on the RSC version, featuring new orchestrations and arrangements by us for a company of actor-musicians playing guitars, banjo, mandolin, accordion, violin, cello, synths, keys, a drum set, and more noisemakers - all performed by an incredibly talented cast who maneuvers seamlessly between the stage and orchestra pit to create Kansas and Oz. We’re in the show too!

Special shout out to all the designers and crew, as well, especially star of the show, Toto, and all other puppets designed by @simplemischiefstudio

If you’re in Kansas City, come join us in the Merry Old Land of Oz for the next few weeks.

✨ It was another successful craft day with their Tia Jenny! ✨ My nieces and I made another felt puppet from the #bluey DIY videos from @simplemischiefstudio. I brought out my felt stash, and we made this adorable dog 🐶 puppet! ✨🧵🪡

We were running a bit low on the tan felt color so we made the puppet a bit smaller. Here is my niece showcasing the puppet since it fits on her tiny hands! 😂
