THE ZINGHOPPERS are a preschool pop band, influenced by hip-hop and electro
dance music. They tour internationally and have an EMMY Award winning
television series of short form music videos that is seen by over 2 million
people daily in over 175 countries. In the United States, they are being
broadcast on over 100 PBS member stations. “The Zinghoppers Show” is geared
towards children ages 2 to 8, and focuses on the child’s social and emotional
development. The band has one simple mission: to rock the whole globe.
“Totally, Zinghoppers!” is an EMMY
Award winning series of musical intersitials for preschoolers that introduces
young children to the elements that make up their world. Created by the husband
and wife teaching team of Kitty and Jack Norton (and developed with a team of
early childhood education experts), the show has been described as “Mr. Rogers
meets Soul Train” or “Barney meets the Black Eyed Peas”. The multi-cultural
cast uses high-energy music to educate, empower and entertain children.
The series is offered in two
different lengths to accommodate the varied needs of broadcasters: Fillers and
60 second interstitials.

kindness, positivity and nurtures the “emotional IQ” of children through humor
and music. The band encourages physical fitness by singing catchy songs with a
danceable beat to get children up off the couch to move and groove with the
Zinghoppers!
