Hi-Kick
We've asked some real-life children to tell us exactly what they think about the top kids' shows at the Fringe. 9 year-old Maxwell Stephenson reviews Hi-Kick

I went to go to see Hi-kick at the Assembly Hall. It was an energetic football and dance show, but more dancing than football, sadly. The performers were all from Korea but spoke in English. The story reminded me of the one in The Karate Kid because there was a really good team and a rubbish one. The rubbish team were trained how to play and at the end there was a big football match.
I thought it was funny because there was a lot of clowning around. There were also some amazing tricks. They did keepy-uppies, overhead kicks and headers. I have seen most of them before but still pretty amazing.
It is not just for kids, I think there is something for everybody.
At the end they chucked signed footballs randomly into the audience and we got to keep them.
