February FunZones!

Posted on January 26, 2012 by JumpStart

JumpStart winter’s over now,
Don’t cry a tear or make a frown.
February’s coming soon,
With floating hearts and flowers bloom.

Cupid himself will make a trip,
To bring good cheer, love and friendship.
For all the Jumpeez in the land,
He’ll leave some gifts to take in hand.

A maze you say? What a special treat,
With scrumptious chocolates good to eat.
A ride with swans, how can it be so?
Float down Hearts Lane nice and slow.

When your kids make it through the Box of Chocolate Maze, they’ll reach the floating hearts trampoline!

Tell your kids to take a ride through Hearts Lane in a swan boat. They will be delighted by all of the sights along the way.

So many sweet things to see and do.
Cupid’s gathered his arrows and drawn his bow.
He just might strike a Jumpee or two,
Don’t worry, your kids can spread the cheer too!

Your kids can help spread the Valentine’s Day cheer, by throwing a heart at a fellow Jumpee as a sign of friendship.

What February activity are your kids looking forward to?

XOXO
Frankie

Opposite Day

Posted on January 25, 2012 by JumpStart

January 25th is Opposite Day! Frankie and the team here at JumpStart have thought of some fun things for you and your kids to do to celebrate. Try some of them out and then tell us about it!

1. Say everything in opposites. For example, when your family wakes up in the morning say, “Goodnight” to each other.
2. Wear your clothes backwards or inside out. This is sure to make your family and friends laugh.
3. Eat your family’s meals backwards, beginning with dinner food for breakfast. Or, start your meal with dessert—we bet your kids will love that!
4. Play this game: Describe something to your kids and have them guess what the opposite of that word is. For example, “This is the season that is very cold and sometimes brings snow.” (Answer: summer)
5. Play this game: Say an action and your children have to do the opposite. For example, when you say, “Stand up,” your kids sit down.

What if everything was opposite on Opposite Day?

Can your kids think of any more things to do on Opposite Day? Let us know how your family will be celebrating this fun day!

Time Is Running Out!

Posted on January 11, 2012 by JumpStart

Tell your kids to get ready for a race against the clock for! They must find all 20 items from the Timepiece Scavenger Hunt before it’s too late! We’ve decided to lend “hour hand” by sharing some hints for the harder to find items. We’d say it’s just in the nick of time!

Tick-tock, tick-tock,
Where should a Jumpee look,
When trying to find a clock?

There are 20 items total. Can your kids find them all?

Winter may be coming to an end,
But this season’s not yet over,
So to this portal, a Jumpee we send.

Search around the Winter Wonderland portal to find a few items.

We advise Jumpeez to check a building’s roof,
Will an item be hiding on top of here?
When they check, they’re sure to find proof.

Which rooftop is this item hiding on?

So here are some hints to the quest for time,
For the remaining items, we say “Good Luck!”
And we hope you enjoyed the rhymes.

Have your kids finished the Timepiece Scavenger Hunt? Don’t wait until the last minute. Tell them to start today!

It’s Time for Some Fireworks!

Posted on January 9, 2012 by JumpStart

All of us here at JumpStart have been celebrating the New Year by the bay! Have your kids had a chance to watch the fantastic fireworks display happening in the SpeedDrome, MainStreet, and DownTown areas? Before it’s too late, be sure they know all there is to know about this festive feature!

See the sky light up in celebration of the New Year!

To make sure your kids don’t miss out on this special show, we’ve instructed the JumpStart band to blare their trumpets and announce the start of each fireworks display. Make sure your kids listen for the signal while they’re out exploring! As the skies begin to dim, they’ll need to quickly make their way to the surrounding bays to catch a glimpse of the light filled sky. If they want more, tell them not worry! We’ve made sure that fireworks will be going off every 15 minutes. That way, they’ll be hard to miss even if your child’s busy on an adventure through the game.

Head over to the bay to see the show!

If your kids have already seen the fireworks spectacular, let us know what they think of this latest festive feature. We’d love to know how your kids have celebrated the New Year in JumpStart!

Tick-Tock: The Timepiece Scavenger Hunt Has Begun!

Posted on January 5, 2012 by JumpStart

Now that we’ve officially entered 2012, we want your kids to help us celebrate the passing of time into the New Year by joining us in a little hunt around the SpeedDrome! How many of our time related items have your kids’ Jumpeez already found?

Keep an eye out for theses timepieces around the SpeedDrome!

For a seasonal search, Father Time has helped us out by hiding 20 items around the SpeedDrome, including: a vintage alarm clock, a digital clock, a digital wrist watch, an hourglass, a pocket watch, and a trusted sundial. Some of these items may be foreign to your kids, so let them know how each of the hunt’s items has stood the test of time to help Jumpeez both past and present track time.

Which items do you kids still need to find?

To figure out which items your child and their Jumpee have left; simply select the Communicator on the right hand side of their character dock. From there, have your kids hit the “Scavenger Hunt” button to pull up the list of items they’ll need to find for their JumpStart prize. Make sure they look high and low for these items since they could be anywhere in the SpeedDrome. If necessary, you and you kids may want to stay tuned for hints on some of our harder to find timepieces. Until next time!
