Kids Events

As a parent, Mike Bolland always volunteered his time to assist in his children’s classrooms. However, his unique characteristic as “the Dad with one hand” often caught the attention of the students, diverting their focus from the teacher. Realizing this, Mike approached the teacher and requested a few minutes to engage with the kids directly. The teacher kindly granted his request, and the Q&A session turned out to be a resounding success. The positive response was so overwhelming that Mike received invitations to address other classes and schools, sharing his experiences and inspiring young minds along the way.

It’s very interactive and generally takes between 30 to 40 minutes. Interested?  Please contact Mike.
