This is a short story about
two sisters,
their sister-in-law,
and a best friend.

Carly wanted to change the way little kids explore the world. She started designing lesson plans, writing books and composing songs.
She needed help so she asked Dionne.

Dionne suggested their best friend join the party.
Sarah was keen so they started playing…
…and now we have The Polkadots.

After a few songs had been sung, a lesson or two taught, and some free concerts performed something was still missing.
Dez was the perfect fit. She loved to dance, sing and play. The fact she was also their sister-in-law was a nice
bonus… and it makes this story better.

The Polkadots wanted to EDUTAIN kids and their parents.
(“EDUTAIN” means to educate and entertaining at the same time)
They followed the mantra of “for mums by mums”… for a while. Mr. Bop was introduced in the Body Bop lessons to help teach the importance of staying active. Everyone loved Mr. Bop so much he is now part of every show.

The mantra is now: “Learn to love learning together”

Dez and Mr. Bop there are a bunch

Is there a better way to tell America about the Polkadots? They don’t think so.
Ellen’s love for music, dancing, plus something a little different and new
makes this a perfect match.
