Caroline and Danny

Caroline and Danny haven't a clue what job title to put on their business cards! They're multi-taskers.
This dynamic duo can:

• Perform fun, interactive concerts filled with stories and songs for families and children
• Conduct high energy, informative workshops and keynotes for diverse adult populations
• "Edu-tain" teens with participatory storytelling/ communcation sessions
• Offer wonderfully catchy musical CDs to entertain and teach children a variety of topics

Your powerful messages can have a lasting impact, far reach, and a profound effect
on youth in any culture or demographic…

Caroline and Danny's opening session performance was not only a lively
audience participation event, but also a very effective way of demonstrating
the power we have as school counselors to "teach tolerance" to children as a
contra-positive method of allaying the negative effects of bigotry and violence..
Jim Bergin/Georgia School Counselor Association president

The songs are upbeat and teach the importance of being a responsible and
caring individual who values themselves, others and the environment. This
program is an enjoyable way for educators to instill a strong sense of values

while meeting the expectations of the academic curriculum…

Caroline and Danny provide a timely role model for children and adults.
Something so unique to their work is an ability to maintain the bigger picture
of a universal vision of fairness and integrity in teaching children about
relationships, while touching people as individuals in special needs as well
as typical populations...

teach early childhood skills. A great choice for library collections!”

Caroline Figiel and Danny Jones are outstanding storytellers, musicians,
entertainers, educators and performers who delight audiences of all ages.
Children are entranced with their high energy and interactive performances.
Values, character, and just plain old fun are the themes that keep their attention.
But this pair is equally talented at capturing the imagination and memory of
adult audiences, giving them an unforgettable experience…

It was a pleasure and a privilege to host Caroline and Danny as workshop presenters
for the In-service training for Children's Librarians for the Atlanta-Fulton Public Library System. They were informative, insightful and energetic. We look forward to working with again and again...

You will be impressed by the selection of music, verse, and movement which makes personal communication links to each member of the audience - regardless of age or language. These artists demonstrate the ease of integrating positive character
development into all curriculum content areas. Large group presentation, teacher professional development, or multiple workshop settings are appropriate for this
creative instructional program…

The students and teachers thoroughly enjoyed your visit. As I walked the halls and
visited with the students at lunch, they were talking about your songs. One class
used points from your Person of Peace song as they problem-solved an issue
which occurred in gym class later that day. As promised, you did engage the
children for the full 45 minutes!
Catherine Wang/ Principal South School-Glencoe, Illinois

The program was a total success! The teachers and children said the performers
were great. They had so much energy and worked so well with the children. One
teacher said her class learned all of the songs on the CD and pretend to be
Caroline and Danny. When are they coming back…Nayda Santiago Newark

I like the way you updated the language and used terms and situations that
today’s kids will understand…

I think what you are doing for children is wonderful. I am happy to endorse what
you are doing…
Archbishop John Donoghue

The counselors in my school believe your songs represent the values and ethics
that we are attempting to teach children…
John Anderson/ principle at Ocee Elementary/ GA

The program was a pure delight. I've rarely seen an audience of youngsters so
captivated. Over a hundred children from at least five different classes and there
was no fussing or complaining.
Even the teachers got into the spirit of the program and participated and couldn't
thank us enough for inviting them…
