Quotes from Kyle Dine

Why are you creating a DVD about allergy awareness?
“This DVD has been a goal of mine for years. I love performing across North America, but fully realize I can only reach so many kids through touring. This video will connect with more kids than I could ever imagine and raise food allergy awareness on a ground-breaking scale.”

Why is the video aimed at children?
“Teaching children when they’re young about food allergies and intolerances helps them grow up to have a sense of empathy and understanding for each other’s differences.”

Why is teaching through music, puppets and games effective?
"We all know how memorable certain songs can be. The messages seem to just stick with us. It’s a great way to engrain key messages about food allergies in children through repetition and sing-a-longs. Puppets and games draw them in even more by engaging children's imaginations in two-way dialogue with characters."

How will this video support allergic children?
“I only wish there was a resource like this available when I was a kid. This video will draw kids in, engaging them with music and puppets that will leave them wanting to know more about allergies, and how they can support their friends."

Why are you creating two videos?
“I am creating two separate videos (grades K-2 & 3-5), because I believe messaging is most effective when it’s age appropriate. My live shows are typically split up this way, and I have found over the years that you need different approaches and content to engage different audiences. I am also always conscious that the material for younger children isn’t to scary, while also not to babyish for older students.”
