Big Barn Puppets
Kidsinger Jim's one-of-a-kind puppet show is excellent entertainment for children and families. Developed in 2008, Jim is constantly improving the show with new puppets, props and songs to keep the show fresh. Kidsinger Jim has presented his puppet show in concert venues, park and rec sites, preschools, and on a weekly basis at the historic Eastern Market in Washington, D.C. The puppets are large enough to be seen from a distance, but friendly-looking when children are up close. Click the button below to check out our convenient booking feature.

Engaging Music
Kidsinger Jim and the puppets sing traditional folk songs and Jim's catchy originals, with backing tracks for a concert sound.
Amazing Puppets
Jim's friendly, nearly life-size animal puppets and realistic barn set takes the children on a visit to a very musical farm.
Impressive Portability
Believe it or not, this very sturdy barn set can be broken down to fit through a 36" wide doorway to be set up in almost any venue.
Trailer Barn Set
Jim's trailer is also a mobile puppet set. If no electricity, Jim can power his sound system with his nifty solar generator.
