Who is it? It's the Schwartzman Quartet!

My daughter loves music and dancing, and whenever she hears music, her eyes take on a certain shine of happiness and anticipation. She loves, loves, loves, loves "Jack's Big Music Show", which airs on Noggin.

The show is really very cute, and I truly enjoy watching it with her! In short: Jack, a fun-loving preschooler puppet, escapes each day to his backyard clubhouse, where he and his friends (Mary; his green and purple striped drum playing dog, Mel --"Oh, Melsie Boy!") hang out doing what they love best - making music. The show also features guest appearances and music videos by popular children’s musicians. You simply cannot watch this show and not become an instant fan.

I have always been adverse to the idea of Abbie watching TV. But JBMS is an interactive show, which gets her up dancing, clapping, jumping and singing. Now, when Abbie looks at the TV screen, she starts screaming "SHO!!!! SHO!!!!!!". I'd never have imagined how positive a child’s interaction with TV could be or how amusing.

Here are a couple of excerpts from the show, among which The Schwartzman Quartet, Abbie's and mine favorite part of the show!

I loved these clips so much that I showed Megan and now she is a fan of "Jack's Big Music Show" too. Thanks for posting about it!
