Hundreds of Thousands have Shared the Jazzles Experience. Jazzles is more than just alphabet songs for children. Jazzles "Alphabet Clever Songs" launched in 2000, is already established as a "seriously" entertaining and successful "Phonics within Whole Language"resource for mainstream children and those with special needs. It has been especially developed to incorporate PROLIFIC ALLITERATION words in text that children can understand and "relate to". The lyrics tell meaningful stories - often in rhyme but never for the sake of rhyme. Some songs incorporate "little life" skills, helping children to 'handle' themselves in everyday situations.

The animations add humor, emotion and so much visual texture that the lyrics become "mini-movies" with lyrics to read and sing --- as much at home in the class room or as an MTV or iPod movie download.

Jazzles is already widely used for ESL and EFL for children to adults, (including U.S. Migrant Centers and similar locations internationally) because nowhere within the lyrics' 425 individual words, will you find any that are babyish! Adults as well as children enjoy both the music and the songs. Even The Ellen DeGeneres Show has licensed one of the songs! The related resources are well organized to assist comprehension and recall.

Jazzles "Clever Cartoons" is a break-through early reading and ESL-EFL resource based on Phonics within Whole Language.

It's designed for today's visual and sound addicted children as their launching pad to language and literacy. Jazzles "Clever Cartoons" combines especially composed alliteratively enriched songs with very clever animations that absorb children's attention while they "read" the lyric subtitles scrolling underneath. The combination of the songs, music, scrolling lyrics and the visual content is a very powerful tool to engage today's culturally diverse children. They will ask to see each A-Z song's animations over and over - with the repetition (important for all children and particularly those with disabilities) creating rapid and high levels of comprehension and recall.

'Party Party' Great Party Dance music for singing and grooving! Plus song lyrics about all your favorite party foods like pizza and popcorn! Use this song when planning a home or class party - it encourages the kids to be creative with food, craft and games! Sorry, we forgot about cleaning up!!	'Fat Fish' Set to “Cha Cha” music, children love pretending to reel in fish while fishing with their family as they sing this catchy song. It all ends with a fantastic fish feast and fighting off flies searching for some fast food! Sound familiar?

The role of the subtitles is compelling -- designed especially to promote sound-letter understanding and word recognition within mini-stories while also developing left-right tracking and boosting decoding skills (a factor identified in a 3 year European research study into the effects of TV and Reading including movie sub-titles).

'Clever Kid' Set to Rock Gospel music, children love the rhythm and beat of this catchy song that encourages children to try and learn new things – that's being clever! Use this song to discuss self-esteem, encourage children to take risks with learning, discuss things we can and can’t do when we are young, about comforting others when they are upset and safety issues.	'Dirty Dog' Funky music for this children's song about a dog doing what it likes best - barking and digging up dad's garden! Daffodils and all. Children love the actions to this song like digging up the garden and pointing to the dirt on the steps. Us this songs to talk about ‘pets’ and gardening. And stop that barking please!

Each A-Z song in the Jazzles "Clever Cartoons" series comes with its own comic to motivate struggling readers, simplify concepts for ESL and EFL students and teach visual literacy to elementary students. These Jazzles "Clever Comics", tightly integrated with the cartoons, have been developed with an early reading and ESL-EFL purpose - further enabling educators to create enthusiasm for reading.

Promoting EFL to potentially millions of Chinese children, Jazzles is scheduled to be broadcast on National and Provincial TV stations through out China starting June 2006.
Jazzles SuperPlans - teaching tips for parents and teachers - will be available in Chinese language. More details to be announced shortly.

The animations for Jazzles "Clever Cartoons" have been created by Shanghai Witzitech, one of the most respected animation companies in China. Winners of the 2005 Educational Technology Award issued by the 2005 China Education Technology Expo. as well as the prestigious Best Media/Entertainment/Games Experiences by Macromedia Great China in the MAX 2005 Award Event.
