Their new “Kid Concoctions Show” television special has been ranked as one of the most successful fundraisers on public television and still continues to break records across the country. 2 new national 1-hour television specials “Household Concoctions” and “Kid Concoctions #2” will soon be released as well as weekly national television series based on the “Kid Concoctions” book series.
