JiggaJump Core Components
A Major Television Presence
There's no better place to reach kids -- especially kids who may watch too much TV – than on TV itself. JiggaJump will transform kids’ viewing time into active, healthy time with a TV series and interstitials starring Canadian TV sing-along stars, Judy & David.DVDs and CDs
The first JiggaJump CD ("JiggaJump Adventures") and Leader's Guide is now available, with more CDs and DVDs planned -- making the JiggaJump experience available in millions of homes, classrooms, and community centres. One of North America’s top independent distributors of children’s DVDs and audio CDs has identified JiggaJump as one of the most promising new initiatives they have seen. JiggaJump Adventures was produced with the assistance of the Ontario Ministry of Health Promotion and in partnership with Ophea (The Ontario Physical and Health Education Association). The CD and accompanying educational program materials are now being used in thousands of classrooms and day cares.JiggaJump Concerts
JiggaJump concerts bring the message and the excitement of JiggaJump directly to the children of North America, promoting a healthy, active life while providing a great entertainment event. JiggaJump concerts will tour in several formats including a smaller-scale show designed for educational and promotional appearances. A full-scale stage show based on the TV series and starring Judy & David will tour major concert venues across the continent. The first tour, "JiggaJump Alive!" rolled out to 10,000 children and educators in May, 2007. Click here to see a video clip. The second tour, JiggaJump Beach Party is now scheduled for November 2007 through May 2008.Community Program: Schools * Daycares * Community Groups
A community version of JiggaJump ALIVE debuted in spring of 2007 with 29 concerts in 8 cities in Ontario, Canada. Participating schools, daycares, and community groups will receive CDs and Leader’s Guides for use in the classroom to help with newly-mandated DPA (Daily Physical Activity) requirements. The emphasis will be on fun and will be aimed at preschool and primary children. For more information click here.JiggaJump Club
While healthy, active fun is its own reward, there is nothing wrong with other positive reinforcement. Membership in the JiggaJump Club will be free and will entitle families to access the JiggaJump Club web site (a sub-section of jiggajump.com) where they will find free activities and special offers exclusive to JiggaJump Club members. The JiggaJump Club will also offer prizes for kids who make healthy life choices. Participating manufacturers will offer JiggaJump Club Points for products which promote healthy eating and activity.Licensing and Merchandising
JiggaJump will license its program to manufacturers who will add value to the JiggaJump Revolution. This will include at least one major sportswear/activewear manufacturer and at least one major grocery marketing company. All such licenses would be vetted by JiggaJump’s Advisory Board, an arms-length advisory panel including child health experts.JiggaJump Fitness Program
JiggaJump will eventually be available as a fun fitness class for parents and small children. Our aim is to partner with existing community venues to present a program that is fun and accessible, led by qualified child fitness personnel.JiggaJump.com
JiggaJump.com will turn computer time into active time and will offer interactive fun with contests, educational support, and further information about making a child’s formative years healthy, active, and fun.Charitable Works
JiggaJump's goal is to give children a fun-filled head-start on a life-long journey of active, healthy living. A portion of JiggaJump proceeds will go towards supporting non-profit organizations with like-minded goals that can have a real impact in the fight against childhood obesity and inactivity.
