"Ken and his Friends Forever Puppets came to perform for my kindergarten classes for a special afternoon Halloween celebration! Ken thoroughly delighted and entertained us! My kindergarten students were captivated by the fun, lively show. Ken gave such life and character to each and every one of his treasured puppets, through song, music, and story. My large group of five-year-olds were engaged for the entire show, clapping, and laughing along throughout the performance. Ken’s performance along with his magic whiteboard and “Valter” his very nervous vulture were a real hit with my kinders! Ken has a wonderful sense of humour and a terrific rapport with children. He is a great entertainer! I will definitely welcome Ken and his Friends Forever Puppets back to my kindergarten and recommend him to colleagues.Thanks Ken! Thanks again for the beautiful books and the coffee mug! Take care," Debbie Biermann Lakeland Ridge Kindergarten

"Forever Friends Puppets came to our school in Carstairs, Alberta for Pink Shirt Day this year. The students and staff really enjoyed the presentation of the puppets, songs, music, magic and motivational talk that related to the concepts behind Pink Shirt Day. The students were engaged with the puppets, content and the wonderful presenter himself, Ken Bishop! A day filled with much laughter and a day the students are still talking about! A must presentation for all elementary schools!!" Carmen Broad Carstairs Elementary

Ken Bishop and his Friends Forever Puppet Review "Ken Bishop and his Friends Forever puppets visited our preschool for each of our classes to help us celebrate Easter 2017. The show was very entertaining with lively puppets who dance and sing to the music. Ken makes the puppets come to life behind the stage, but also allows the children a glimpse to thoroughly understand how they work as he invites and encourages participation. Ken introduced and explained the variety of types of puppets he uses and he showed us how we can turn everyday items into puppets. Ken's personable manner puts everyone at ease, including those who are anxious at meeting his characters.   Thank you so much for bringing your Friends Forever puppets to our preschool. We really enjoyed your shows." Karen Dalmer Brookview Community Preschool

"Hello Ken, Just a few words of congratulations to you on the wonderful puppet show you presented to our Toddler groups. Your show was so eagerly anticipated by the children and they weren’t disappointed!.  Almost three weeks later they speak of the singing Grandpa puppet and his guitar and your magical moving face on the whiteboard! They were the best part of the show and the children wish our whiteboards did that. One child has been inspired to bring his own ukulele with a storybook every day. The children tell me they also love your ladybug, and your pirate puppet (even though he’s scary!). Your show is memorable entertainment.   Thank-you!" Vivian Turner, Assistant Director University Infant Toddler Centre Michener Park Education Society “The Childcare Centre” University of Alberta

"Ken Bishop braved the frigid temperatures of a Fort McMurray winter without complaint to perform in our annual WinterPLAY Festival. The show engaged children and adults alike. It was interactive, fun, and memorable. br> I would recommend Friends Forever Puppets to any festival organizer. Thank you Ken for your hard work and helping to create one of the best WinterPLAY festivals to date. Take care;" Michael Beamish Coordinator II Community Strategies Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo

"Good morning Ken, Thank you for performing at our annual ‘Berries & Blooms – A Lincoln Family Festival’. Your performances were wonderful and we received lots of positive feedback from the parents and children attending the performances. Your shows were interactive and amusing. The dozens of children sat enthralled by the puppets from beginning to end (not an easy feat!). Your pleasant and easy going manner is great to deal with as well. I will happily recommend your services.  Thank you," Christina Hannus  Organizer, Kidz Zone Beamsville Strawberry Festival Association
