The state of Kansas, known as the Sunflower State, resembles a giant patchwork quilt of cornfields and prairies, stitched together by twisting rivers and highways under the wide-open Midwestern sky. It's a magical place where the wind doesn't just speak, it sings, rustling golden wheat fields into a shimmering sea of gold. In the heart of this enchanting land, there's an extraordinary group of kids who love to dance! They are known as the Kansas Kinetikids, a troop of sprightly, twinkle-toed dance enthusiasts who add an extra layer of sparkle to this state. These kids are as diverse as the crops in the Kansas fields, but when they dance, they move as one, like a flock of birds soaring through the sky. Now, meet Boogie the Bison, their cool, imaginary mascot who can't resist breaking out into spontaneous dance moves! He’s a rotund, jovial creature with a heart as vast as the Kansas plains. Boogie's specialty dance is the Sunflower Shuffle, a wild, wacky jig that makes even the sternest scarecrow break into a grin. When the Kansas Kinetikids get together, they all follow Boogie's lead, spinning like a tornado, leaping like prairie dogs, and shimmying like sunflowers in the breeze. Their performances are as unpredictable and delightful as a Midwestern weather report. Dancing in Kansas isn’t just about the steps, but about the spirit! Boogie the Bison always says, “Dance is the hidden language of the soul of the body. Now, let’s stop yapping, and start tapping!” Then, with a hearty laugh, he kicks up his hooves, and the dance begins!

At our early childhood preschool and childcare program, we are passionate in our belief that those who work alongside young children and their families should be recognized as early childhood professionals. We recognize that these professionals deserve respect, rewards, and responsibilities that come with a professional status.
