After 2 years, the Vancouver International Children’s Festival is back this spring to delight, enchant and engage children of all ages. Families from around Metro Vancouver look forward to the festival every year; I have fond memories of attending it when I was a child (I actually saw Cirque du Soleil at Kids Fest!). This year, fourteen professional performing artists from as far-reaching as Denmark, Ireland and the United Kingdom are scheduled to perform 65 shows.
