JabberBug Media

JabberBug Media creates short format audio theater for children. Our original stories are written for young children aged 4-10 and unlike audio books, our stories are told in a dynamic way with first person narrative and original music and sound effects. JabberBug Media was created by two sisters – one an actress and playwright and the other a marketing director and mother - because they wanted to bring back the idea of listening to today’s youth. Instead of adding to the abundance of ’screen-time’ available to kids today, JabberBug Media engages children’s imagination through listening and stories that have the portability of today’s media, but the educational power of reading a book.
