If the snow is not reason enough to do a little jig, then the Kidtopia Music Experience will have guests on their feet from March 2-10. The event culminates with the Snow Pants Dance Party on Saturday, March 10 with free live outdoor music performances by 6 Million Dollar Band and Koo Koo Kanga Roo.
