    Good stuff it will be great for both you and the child very interactive not only with other children but with toys, musical instruments etc...

    Ollie is also very good taking the class.

    So be warned you will be singing "Hello Jo-Jingles" in no time:rotfl:

  • The Mother & Toddler Group in Lurgan isn't Jo-Jingles, though Jo Jingles may have a class in the same building on some stage during the week, not really sure. Jo-Jingles is a Commercial Franchise. Not that there is anything wrong with that & I hear it is really very good... It's just the Mother & Toddler group in the Jethro Centre is ony about £1:00 or £1:50... whereas Jo Jingle would be a lot more per "Session" and I think you have to register for Jo Jingles and pay up front so if you miss as session you still have to pay for it (Maybe you could confirm this nadnad)... Not the case with the Baby Mother & Toddler group, you just pay for the day....

    you're right colin jo jingles is a franchise and its £4 per session, (£56 upfront) but its more what i was looking for than the usual mother and toddler groups, theres a maximum of 8 babies per session and it focuses on the baby, whereas mother and toddler groups are more about the mothers meeting up and having a chat (from what i've been told).
