Hello, I`m Jenny Blazey (on the left) and along with Victoria , Dawn and Nikki run Jo Jingles classes in Cheshunt, Hoddesdon, Hertford, Ware, Buntingford and Welwyn Garden City.

Jo Jingles has been up and running nationally for 10 years and in East Herts since 2003. I first came across Jo Jingles when looking for a class to take my daughter to and discovered there were no Jo Jingles classes in my local area.

As a trained musician I wondered when I would be able to put my musical skills to good use again and the opportunity to combine my love of children and music and run my own business seemed too good to miss.

There are now 28 classes running each week in local halls and nurseries. Please have a look at the full list in the CLASSES section. Give me a call or send me an e-mail for any further information and to check availability and book your place.

WHAT IS JO JINGLES

Jo Jingles is the UK's leading provider of music and movement classes for pre-school children aged 6 months - 7 years. Nationally we have been running as a franchise for 10 years and our aim is to give children an enjoyable and creative introduction to music through a wide variety of activities.

For the younger children (6 months - 2 years) these activities include nursery rhymes, action songs, music & movement, sound and rhythm games and playing musical instruments. The classes have an educational slant and cover some of the basic pre-school concepts of numbers, the alphabet, shapes, colours etc.

Older children also benefit from all the above activities as well as enjoying a gradual introduction to pitch, rhythm, dynamics, notation, instruments of the orchestra and musical notes. Jo Jingles classes for 3 - 7 year olds achieve many of the National Curriculum requirements for key stage 1.

Parents/carers stay with their children to share in the fun and help them get the most out of the classes.

WHY DO JO JINGLES?

Research shows us that music is vital to a child's development,

Our classes can help children:

• Develop language and numeracy skills
• Improve physical co-ordination
• Develop routine and discipline
• Gain confidence and independence
• Interact and develop social skills

And most importantly - Have fun.
