For Our Children was a two-hour television special which aired on the Disney Channel on February 16, 1993; the network unscrambled its signals for that night to allow basic cable subscribers to watch. The program was a televised benefit concert to raise funds for the Pediatric AIDS Foundation.
Rotating hosts for the evening included Baby Sinclair (from Dinosaurs), who sat atop a crate esconced in a large jungle gym set. Baby waved and grooved along to several songs, and introduced several performers. His fellow co-hosts included Jason Priestley, Neil Patrick Harris, Kadeem Hardison, and Mayim Bialik. Performers included Paula Abdul, Melissa Etheridge, Patti LaBelle, Bobby McFerrin, and Gerardo.
