Discovery Kids and its favourite superhero KISNA celebrated the weekend with kids from Shiksha Educational Trust, an organisation that works towards the cause of education amongst underprivileged children.
On Sunday, 27th December, more than 100 kids from the trust were taken on a joy ride aboard the Discovery Kids Joy Express and participated in games, art & craft, magic show, puppet shows and much more. The kids also met KISNA and expressed their enthusiasm by dancing and singing with the super hero.
