Fill Your Winter Days With JumpStart Junior!

Winter is indefinitely a challenging time of year on various accounts. As thrilling as the winter days are that are occupied with festive affairs, family gathers, travel and if you live in a colder climate snow days. As grand as these days are and the memories that are made during this wondrous time of year are nothing less than precious. There is something to account for.

In short, boredom.

No matter any facts, cabin fever is a true reality. And it is something that gets to the very best of us. All the presents have been used times over. You already finished binge watching the last series on your back log and you still have weeks until anything new comes on Netflix. And you have already relived your favourite tale so many times you are on the verge of blurting out one-liners in the middle of your sleep.

Yeah, we have all been there.

But the good people over at JumpStart have your back with their all new app, JumpStart Junior!

Here are the details.

JumpStart®, the leader in learning-based games for kids, today announced the release of JumpStart Junior in the App Store and coming soon to Google Play, bringing the beloved preschool game from the desktop to mobile to encourage learning on-the-go. Played by children worldwide, JumpStart Junior’s mobile version features new worlds to explore, interactive learning games, exciting storybook tales, and everyone’s beloved magical pets known as Mythies. Designed for kids ages 3-5 years old, Jumpstart Junior features JumpStart’s award-winning educational content and helps to build a strong foundation for preschoolers as it covers more than 80 early learning skills based on national standards in pre-reading, early math, thinking skills, and more. The game provides teachers and parents with an interactive tool for early learners from a brand they trust to provide engaging, educational gameplay for kids.

“The launch of JumpStart Junior is getting back to our roots as a brand and our core mission to create grade-based educational products that kids will love.

I personally do really love JumpStart and do always applaud them for their efforts. They always are really great about finding new and fun ways to make learning really enjoyable and engaging. And their new app is just another great way of doing that.

With apps continually to becoming more and more critical this is really nice for anyone who is on the go. So even if you are waiting for a practice to start or are on the road traveling there can be that game play in progress.
