I’m writing in thanks for all the help Christine Levey of Leighton Buzzard classes gave to me and the Play Group that I am the Chair Person of.  This weekend Christine did a charity show for 50 children for Halloween.  The children some of who have never been to Jo Jingles before loved it as much as my children do every week.  To see there faces and interaction was a true delight and raised alot of money for a very good cause

thank you!!!!

My daughter is 2 and started attending Jo Jingles about 4 months ago.  I am so glad that we joined Jo Jingles as my daughter was painfully shy and thanks to participitating in these fun sessions she has really begun to come out of herself and interact with the teacher and other children.  What a fantastic experience!!!

My little boy Alfie is 2 and a half, and he attends a private nursery.  They have invited Jo Jingles in so that the children have a set activity every week.  However my little boy was a bit over whelmed with it all, so the second week they came in I took the day off work and did it with him, now week four is upon us and he absolutely loves it.  We have just purchased the doll and a cd and he has been busy teaching his Grandad, Nanny & Uncle how to “Put your finger on your head…” It is great and we often dance round the living room to the music doing the actions – a great work out for parents and the children!

Go Jo Jingles!!

A friend told me about the local Jo Jingles class at Warrington when I moved into the area in 2003.  My daughter Hannah was around 2 years old when we joined and was very shy for the first couple of classes and I wondered if she would ever join in.  The class leader - Fran made us feel really welcome and encouraged Hannah to join in and after only 3 or 4 classes Hannah was center stage - singing and dancing in the middle of the room and singing at the top of her voice - it was really wonderful to see her enjoying herself so much!

I am sure I am telling you something you already know but I just wanted to tell you how fantastic the Poole section of Jo Jingles is. It is beautifully managed and has some outstanding teachers who entrall delight and motivate my little boy. He concentrates for the whole class and spends his days singing to himself. We have our own baby Jo who goes everywhere with us and has given Tom so much pleasure. We have just got back from the summer workshop which was excellent the pace was good and they packed so much fun into an hour and a half. I would recommend Jo Jingles to anyone and I wish that every child had the opportunity to attend such wonderful classes.

My name is Andrea and I live in Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire.

My son (almost 15 months) and I really enjoyed Playday in Watford, this week, especially Jo Jingles. It was wonderful seeing my sons face light up when he saw 'Big Jo' and a hug and kiss from Jo also helped too! Alison is so friendly and my son simply adores his Jo Jingles sessions.

Jo Jingles at Playday made our day extra special. Thanks Jo and Alison.

My son totally loves Jo Jingles, he's now 2 and has been attending a class since he was 10 months old.  He knows so many words and actions from so many songs, which he sings all the time and I truly believe that Jo Jingles has brought his language, comprehension and counting skills on no end, in addition to building on his love of music.  Every morning he brings me one of the Jo Jingles CD's and says "Jo Jingles on now please" - so I'm pretty good with the words of the songs too! 

I'd like to thank the teachers for the enthusiasm that they show and the attention to detail which allows them to utilise every opportunity as a learning experience, it's so appreciated by the accompanying adults and the children.  I particularly like the fact that the teacher always addresses the children rather than the adult, regardless of the Childs age I think Jo Jingles is an excellent preparation for a school environment.

Special thanks to Mary, Rebecca, Ronnie and a warm welcome to Trish.

Debbie Bird who runs classes in the Aylesbury area has been fantistic... she puts such a great deal of effort into her classes and babies and toddlers adore her.

I already have a very musical 11 month old on my hands and it is a joy to watch and participate so many thanks for that and good luck for continued growth and success.

What a fantastic job Naomi Chance does in Penzance Surestart, we love to see her and Jo, it brightens our day and what a fantastic idea Jo Jingles is, my sons Harvey and Kian can’t wait for Thursdays to arrive keep up the good work.

I took my two year old daughter to the Clooney Community Centre in Londonderry two weeks ago for the first time. Doreen was the class teacher and I must say she made us feel very welcome and it was great and Emma loved it - as did I.

My sister has even started taking her Son there now.

Can't wait until Tuesday again.

It is important to us to thank Sue Beatson very much for such an enjoyable and beneficial time at Jo Jingles.

I know that Hannah thoroughly enjoyed herself as she joined in with all the songs - a very verbal young lady I think!!

We would also like you to know that when I visited work last week, one of the teachers gave Hannah some bells to play with AND........Hannah showed everyone how to play them whilst dancing on her bottom, it was just fantastic to see!!! Of course Hannah now has her own set of bells and we will be getting a tambourine very soon!!

Thank you once again and hope to see you soon if my work commitments permit.

Iris loved your class today so much that she wanted to make a picture of Jo. Iris says "Hello Jo", what did you do today? My favourite song is singing Hello to Jo. (Who's that happy little fellow). I hope you enjoy the picture I made of you; I made the tambourine from milk bottle tops.

Happy Easter Jo.

We have had two sessions of Jo Jingles now and we have really enjoyed it. Thank you very much from all at Meet-a-Mum Chell Heath and Bradley Toddlers. The music and actions are brill and the children really enjoyed it.
Thanks again to Sharon, Lisa, Shelly and Sue the Play Workers at both groups.

I just wanted to say how brilliant Jo Jingles is.

I have only been taking my 11 month old son, Luke for a few weeks, but already I can see how well he is progressing.

Rebecca runs the class superbly, and Luke has really taken to her (she is lovely).

My husband was amazed to see how much Luke loved the music when we brought home the Jo Jingles tape, and has now ordered him the Play Along Sets and Favourites CD. He cant wait to sample what I see in the class.

Thank you for this truly unique experience and the chance to make learning fun with my son.

I just wanted to pass on my thanks to Jennifer Mellor for her wonderful Jo Jingles classes. I have been attending her classes in Farnham now for 6 years, at the moment with my 4 year old daughter, Sophie who thoroughly enjoys them and previously with my son, Oliver who attended until he went to school.

We joined the group when we first moved to the area when Oliver was just a year old and have been involved ever since. Jo Jingles is a significant part of our lives! It is an amazing experience week in week out as it includes so much music, social interaction, communication, self discipline and most of all FUN! Without even realising the children are learning just so much that it never ceases to amaze me the music things my two come out with.

Only last week Oliver who is now Year 2 came home from school to tell me that he had been selected to attend a Jazz workshop at school for those children identified as gifted and talented in music. I can only thank Jennifer and Jo Jingles for their input into this achievement. So THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Long may the classes run!

"I started to attend Jo Jingles Morley Class with my Daughter, aged 2 in Oct 2005, following an advertisement in a local magazine. My friend also attends with her son who is the same age as my daughter. We absolutely love the classes and truly look forward to attending every week. Diane our instructor is fabulous, she makes every one feel at ease and managers to make every week different from the last. My daughters favourite song's are the "Good Morning" song and "Little Bunnies". I really and truly recommend Jo Jingles and have even put up postcards in my local area (Birstall WF17). We attend many toddler groups throughout the week and I cannot help myself but to spread the word. I feel very lucky to have had the chance to attend classes with my daughter and have just registered for another term.

I have found that my daughter has become more confident and has developed much improved rhythm and movement. My daughter loves attending and truly takes part in every aspect of the class. I believe she enjoys it so much owing to the way Diane delivers her class. Diane gives the children the confidence to take part and achieve by constant praise.

I really and truly recommend Jo Jingles for anyone with young children who wants to spend quality time in a friendly environment and watch their children grow.

My Son Billy suffered a stroke while in the womb and was born with left side hemipegia which means he is unable to use the left side of his body properly. Unlike adult stroke victims who have the muscle and brain memory of how to use their limbs, he does not and has had to learn everything from scratch. He was only a little late in walking and to most people he now just seems a little clumsy but his hand has caused us more problems. His physiotherapist and occupational therapist are both fantastic but he needs to use his hand as much as possible to teach his damaged brain what to do. So his physio recommended that I find some activities that he enjoyed so that his therapy wouldn't feel like a chore - for either of us.

He's always responded well to music and a friend suggested Jo Jingles. We started just after his first birthday and we haven't looked back. The action songs and musical instruments encourage him to use both sides of his body, developing a sense of rhythm and building on language skills at the same time. He’s made friends with lots of his classmates and loves being part of the class. Taking turns and waiting for musical instruments and the all important "tidy up time" all help encourage routine and social skills that toddlers often struggle with - I only wish I'd known about it when his sister was this age!

Alison, who teaches the class, is fantastic. She involves everyone and helps me to help Billy without making a big deal of his disability. Her enthusiasm is infectious and her ability to control a whole room full of toddlers while still remaining their friend is miraculous! She manages to hold all their attention nearly all of the time and has a nack of bringing any "trouble makers" happily back into the group that I envy.

Jo Jingles isn’t just helpful during the class - on Friday mornings before class he wonders what songs they might sing and practices along with the actions. Then after class (and for most of the week) he re-sings and dances his way through them all again. (I’m writing this lying down and Bill is sat on my back singing Dingle Dangle Scarecrow).

This year he will even be having a Jo Jingles birthday party and is very excited that Alison and Jo will be coming to our house. So am I! I'm really pleased that I discovered Jo Jingles and would recommend it to anyone.

I would like to say a big thank you for the great day we had at Chessington on Sunday. My 2 year old daughter and 7 year old niece were in their element with all the dancing and singing. Every member of your staff were fantastic and the ladies who held the classes were fantastic and the free tea, coffee and biccies went down very well with us parents.

My daughter attends classes in Bricket Wood and was over the moon to meet Pudsey and Jo Jingles himself! So thanks once again we hope the record will do well, we will be buying a copy or two. We would also like to give Alison Brazier a mention for the fantastic classes she holds week in and week out.

Good luck and best wishes.

I have been taking my daughter, Ellie, to Jo Jingles in Dibden Purlieu since she was approx 18 months - when I saw the circle format I thought there is no way at all Ellie would sit still but went on to be amazed how quickly they learn, by the end of the first lesson she sat still and joined in! Our teacher Claudia is amazing, very supportive on off days and full of enthusiasm and praise for both mummy and daughter!

Some days Ellie just sits and listens and doesn't join in, but I know not to let that put me off especially when a couple of days later she sits and plays Jo Jingles with her dollies and sings away and copies everything we have done in a previous class! Ellie is now 2½ and can sing 100s of songs and actions and can name several instruments as well as know the correct way to play them and I find that amazing and completely believe it is down to Jo jingles so thank you!

We started going to Jo Jingles last year, Amelia Beatrice is nearly 2 years old now and absolutely adores it, she gets so excited Wednesday evening and then getting up and dressed is an easy task on Thursday morning. We have the video and Milly constantly sticks it on interrupting anything we are watching to show off her latest moves - Peter and his Hammer has been played on everything but the kitchen sink. We also have all the CD's as wonderful Jo who takes our Classes in Todmorden, West Yorkshire will witness too these are especially good for car journeys!!
