Series overview

Jay's Jungle is a preschool series that follows Jay the lighthouse keeper. Jay lives on a beautiful J-shaped island, inside a wisecracking lighthouse called C-Mor.

Every day, C-Mor shines his magical light across the world searching for thoughts and questions to be explored.

When C-Mor's light lands on an imaginative child, Jay and the team – consisting of Funk – E, Jay's mischievous monkey mate and Kate, Tash, Bec or Lani the fun loving park rangers who look after the island – set out to explore the daily theme. Joining Jay and the team on their adventures is the Jungle Crew, a group of inquisitive preschool children who arrive on the island to help solve problems and create interesting things.

In each episode a new thought or question is explored, such as: ‘Why is the Sea Salty?’, ‘How do seeds grow?’, ‘Who turns off the Sun at Night?’, ‘I wish I could fly like a bird’, and ‘I love bubbles they float up high’. These thoughts and questions call upon explanations that are simple to understand and that all children can be involved in.

Through song and dance, as well as hands on tactile activities, Jay's Jungle celebrates the importance of teamwork and creativity. discoveries! If the team needs more help they can always call on the Monkey band beat-makers, the ‘Tree Top Trio’ featuring Funk-e (Mat McCoy), Jess-e (Lisa Moule) and Leonard (Derek Siow) to explore the theme and sing a song or two.
