Bestie Wonderland started with something really simple: we wanted to use our experience and talents to create the kind of edutainment we love for our own kids.
We’re two longtime besties — educators, performers, and big believers in children. We’ve spent years teaching, performing, and working with kids, and one thing has always been clear:
Kids learn best when they’re not just watching… they’re in it.
So we created Bestie Wonderland — a place where learning feels like storytime meets music meets movement, and children get to participate every step of the way.
We grew up on warm, meaningful childhood favorites that sparked imagination and curiosity, and we wanted to carry that same heart forward — with our own modern twist: original live music, interactive characters, and teaching strategies that truly engage young minds.
Everything we do is built around our mission:
Think. Create. Grow.
In Bestie Wonderland, kids get to:
-
think in playful ways through questions, patterns, and discovery
-
create through imagination, movement, and storytelling
-
grow in confidence, kindness, and curiosity
Our shows are designed to help children:
-
get up and move their bodies
-
use their imaginations
-
practice friendship and teamwork
-
build early literacy and STEM foundations
-
believe in a brighter, kinder tomorrow
Whether we’re performing at a zoo, aquarium, museum, library, or family event, our goal is the same:
Help kids love learning, believe in themselves, and leave feeling encouraged.
We’re so glad you’re here.
Welcome to Bestie Wonderland.
