The Grinch might be known as selfish and mean,
But you haven’t met the one on our team.
The Kaleidoscope Grinch knows so much more,
He knows Christmas doesn’t come from a store.
Our Grinch works hard, is sweet and funny,
We wouldn’t trade him for all of our money.
Our grinch’s heart isn’t the least,
So He himself shall carve the roast beast.
-KPT’s Mr. Grinch (aka Scott)
It’s been a fun couple weeks at Kaleidoscope! We can’t wait to see you in the new year 🤩
