Bonjour! Konnichiwa! Hola! You’re invited to the JumpStart world festival.

Join Frankie and friends as they discover the JumpStart Language Pavillions – four warm, welcoming environments that will delight young children with the sights and sounds of French, Japanese, Spanish and English. Each Pavillion is like a trip to another country – where kids can explore a Japanese pagoda, discover the Eiffel Tower and learn to make tacos!

Child development research indicates that children are most receptive to learning at a young age. JumpStart's Early Discovery product takes advantage of this window of opportunity and offers children a solid foundation for future skill development. Children are exposed to languages early so establish the necessary foundation for later development.
