He stars in his own nationally televised children’s program call­ ed “Vid Kids” and has recorded three children’s Albums including “When You Dream A Dream” that won a Juno - Canada’s version of the Grammy, as best children’s album of the year. Bob Schneider has been describ­ ed as electric and full of pure energy and his talent appeals to preteens as well as preschoolers - and their baby boomer parents enjoy the music too! At most of his concernts, Bob Schneider appears with local kids. “That’s partly what makes doing the shows so special for me, said the 40-year old entertainer. I develop a close relationship with these kids in a short period of time.” IS THIS REVENGE?
