Mark has cerebral palsy a he and his other puppet friends Are part of a travelling troupe which visits Cincinnati schools to teach children about what it s like to be handicapped. The puppets look a lot like those used on sesame Street. They re called a the kids on the blocks and they were created by Barbara. Aiello a former teacher of the handicapped for the express purpose of teaching children about disability. The idea began in Washington two years ago and quickly spread nationwide.
