The Hoots, an award-winning local band out of Davis, play a mix of rock pop and Americana music for kids. They are far more the Beatles than Barney and have been impressing young and old throughout the
United States and world with their fun energetic live shows!
In an effort to help remind the world that more music in schools boosts creativity and encourages an engaging learning environment for all young kids, The Hoots have just launched a contest.

Catch them on Saturday, March 26th…
when they will be performing a free concert for the community at the Bertha Henschel Park 10am Egg Hunt in East Sacramento!
In addition to bringing cool music that kids and parents can enjoy to schools,
The Hoots will release an interactive music App later this year that parents
know is safe and kids will love. Joel Daniel, member of The Hoots band says,
“Music allows a level playing field for young kids, it strengthens their
creative muscles and helps them think outside the box. Many schools are doing
away with music programs or have limited resources, we want to do a small
part in inspiring young people and parents to keep finding creative ways
to bring music to their schools.”

My love for exploring and creating experiences with my three kids led to the founding of SacramentoSidetracks.com in 2009. I realized that Sacramento has so much to offer and I was excited to share my findings with other parents. Besides simply having fun, these are the other positive side effects of taking my kids on outings that I’ve discovered: we have quality time together away from the distractions at home, we cultivate our curiosity, learn new things, conversations are triggered by what we see and do, we connect and bond as a family, and we create new memories. Ready to get sidetracked, too? Let me be your guide!
