When the show
Fresh Beat Band, also known as the JumpArounds, was launched on Nick Jr, it received a very warm reception as children loved its concept. The show was about four teenagers who were studying at a music school and had a music band. The show actually targeted preschoolers and slightly older children as the main goal was to teach problem solving skills to children in a light, fun way. With a fantastic cast of four instantly loveable characters, the show was appreciated by not only children but also parents. Some of the songs repeated in the show and children learnt these marvelous tunes and sang along enjoying every moment of the darling show. Each episode started with an original pop song giving an idea of the problem that was going to come in the show. Then, the concepts of unity and mind power were instilled by showing children that all problems can be solved by working together. After the solution was discovered, the episode’s beginning song was sung again with new lyrics added about the solution of the problem. The show ended with "Great Day," and this closing song was catchy, melodious, and simple and quickly became a permanent part of the repository of songs memorized by children.
