Jo Jingles

Over the past few years there have been a sudden growth in the amount of fun classes you can take part in with your children as the government have tried to encourage new mums to bond with their children in this way. I have done baby massage and rhythm time and enjoyed them both and now I have started Jo Jingles too and both me and my baby love it! Jo Jingles involves music and movement and is all about having fun and learning some basics too. Classes vary depending upon the age group involved as the ages it targets are from 3months to 5 years so obviously huge differences developmentally depending upon the age of your child/children. The aim of Jo ...  Read the complete review

I have not attended the Jo Jingles music classes, I first became aware of this UK wide franchise when my daughter went to a Jo Jingles party and for a time every other party I attended seemed to be one, in the end I too had to arrange one myself. To do this I had to start off on the website (I think if you attend the classes you would just ask whoever runs the class), and clicked on parties in the menu selection on the right.

I have sung to my children from day 1, and we often sing together in the car, our tastes these days having gone from ...  Read the complete review

Jo jingles is a singing and music class designed for babies and toddlers. I paid £3 a class when I attended but that was a year ago. There is no registration fee. The class starts with a welcome song with Jo Jingle doll. The songs are backed up by CD so don't sound too bad. They take Babies from 6 months although I took my son when he was 5 months old as I felt he was ready. Dependant upon the area they move up to classes usually up to school age. They play some songs every week and then a few new ones so there is variety but familiarity. Each song they have different musical instruments to play or with different actions.
