Voorleesboek over de internationale animatie-serie StoryZoo

Weet je wat Toby het allerliefst doet?
Logeren bij oma, want dan leest ze voor!

Maar vandaag heeft oma het te druk.

Als Toby een magisch boek vindt, gaat hij op zoek naar iemand anders die hem voor kan lezen. Ga je mee op avontuur?
Een hartverwarmend verhaal over
logeren bij oma, vriendschap, elkaar helpen en de magie van verhalen.

In dit voorleesboek voor kleuters ontmoeten de hoofdpersonen Toby, Bax en Pepper uit StoryZoo elkaar voor het eerst.

Can learning be fun?

For sure it can! StoryZoo has created a fun new series called “Bewegend Leren” (Move and Learn). Children can enjoy the Dutch pilot series either at school or at home. Each episode features a different theme, such as ’shapes’ or ‘colours’. The young audience learn new words and widen their vocabulary while being asked to stand up, move their arms, jump or do a crazy dance and repeat the words.
Recent studies show that physical activity activates the brain, heightens cognitive function and is correlated with improved academic performance.

New StoryZoo episodes will premiere on Disney Channel in the Benelux

Disney Channel Benelux has licensed 10 newly produced episodes of the ‘StoryZoo Adventures’, this time with an outer space theme. The episodes will be shown on Disney Channel in April in the Netherlands and Belgium. In this series the familiar StoryZoo characters take a rocket to space. Using real-life videos from ESA (European Space Agency), children will enjoy exciting adventures in each of the 12-minute episodes.

The three StoryZoo characters Bax, Toby and Pepper learn about planet Earth and how sunlight influences day and night time. The episodes take us to the moon. We also discover the planet Mars and get to know different planets in our solar system. The StoryZoo animators have created fun new designs and animations depicting the journey through space in the StoryZoo rocket. “The real-life images literally take these StoryZoo adventures to a higher level, the images and exceptional ESA film material are exciting and absolutely unique for young and old” says Johannes Gropp, founder and CEO of StoryZoo B.V.

“We are delighted with the new partnership with Disney and are absolutely convinced that this series will be a great success on the Disney platforms in the Benelux,” said Johannes Gropp.

Learning English in Dutch schools has never been so much fun!

So nice to see the kids interacting with the English StoryZoo lessons and to see them picking up words like “yellow”, “butterfly” or “ladybird”. Sitting in the last row of the school class (kids from 5-7 years = Group 3) I witnessed enthusiastic and responsive kids that loved the interactive lessons and could not wait to solve the games and questions on the smart boards. We worked hard the last couple of months with experts from primary education to fine-tune our product and now we are ready for an international roll-out. We will offer some 50+ lessons, according to the school curricula’s, with topics such as “Vegetables”, “Colors”, “Instruments”, “Recycling” or “Seasons”. Each of our lessons include a lesson plan for the teachers, interactive questions, touch screen games, coloring pages and all that considering the diversity of the kids. More information?

StoryZoo will be going in to thousands of schools in the Netherlands to teach children of 4-8 years old their first words in English. Working in conjunction with LessonUp, one of the market leaders in provision of interactive school materials, StoryZoo has created its own channel environment with high quality complete lessons, including lesson plans for teachers, interactive screens, colouring pages, songs and even touch screen questions. StoryZoo collaborates with experts in primary education in creation and production of theses materials. LessonUp is an online platform that makes it easy for teachers to create engaging lessons using video, images, interactive questions and quizzes. Janneke Plaisir, CEO LessonUp: “We are thrilled to join forces with StoryZoo and make this outstanding, ready to use educational content available to thousands of teachers.” The StoryZoo channel is now live on LessonUp and will be tested the next coming weeks.
