Dollywood just launched a new "KidsFest" season at the amusement park, and this year, kids will leap like a lemur at the chance to see a new show featuring some well known animal enthusiasts. Watch my complete interview from WDEF News 12 This Morning [1] here: Also, you can catch the Kratt Brothers at Dollywood's Kidsfest... which is underway now through August 3rd. Showtimes area available here [2].
The Kratt Brothers, from the hit PBS show "Zoboomafoo," take the stage in an interactive creature feature. They hope the show will encourage kids to explore their own backwards. Martin Kratt says "we grew up in the wilds of suburban new jersey, so we had only so many animals to explore with in our backyard, but in this area you've got the greatest salamander diversity in the entire world so its great to turn over rocks, check out salamanders but always put the rock back first and then let the salamander go."
