"Totally, Zinghoppers!" is a musical show for preschoolers that introduces children to the elements that make up their world. Musically we have been described as, "Barney meets the Black Eyed Peas" and our format has been called, "Mr. Rogers meets Soul Train".
Our lovable characters include a friendly train conductor, a funky DJ, a singing possum, a break-dancing donkey and a hopping kangaroo. We promote kindness, positivity and nurture the "emotional IQ" of children through humor and music. We encourage physical fitness by singing catchy songs with a danceable beat to get children up off the couch to move and groove with the Zinghoppers!
