Sarah and Jonny Macintosh launch online company "Listener Kids"
NASHVILLE, TENN - Singer/songwriter Sarah Macintosh and her husband, producer Jonny Macintosh have launched Listener Kids, an interactive, online company for children. Through Listener Kids, children can access Christ-centered and age-appropriate original content by way of music, videos and apps.
The Macintosh’s created Listener Kids to teach children Christian values from the early stages of life. At this time, Listener Kids offers two music videos, “Jesus Loves Me” and “There Is A Star: A Christmas Song,” featuring an original Christmas song by Sarah. “There Is A Star” debuted on YouTube November 9th and has over 27,000 hits already. To access the videos, visit the website, ListenerKids.com or click here to view the video.
Listener Kids also offers two apps that coincide with the music videos, “Jesus Loves Me” and “There Is A Star: A Christmas Song.” The Jesus Loves Me app features the music video, a sing and record karaoke to four styles of “Jesus Loves Me” and a memory card matching game. In addition, the app contains six animated shorts featuring characters from the video that teach Bible verses about God’s love.
The There Is A Star app includes the animated music video and six coloring pages with characters from the video. Both apps are compatible with iPhone and iPad and are now available to download for free through the website or iTunes.
Read what parents are saying about the videos and apps:
“Jesus Loves Me is a cool app that is pure in content, easy to use for the kids (and parents) and given that our kids (5 and 3) love to jump on our phones and play games, this app gives them a cool opportunity to have fun growing in their understanding of scripture through the Jack and Scarlett memory verse section. Thanks to the creators for using their talents for God's glory!”
“Finally a Christian app for kids that is great. Make more apps!”
“There Is A Star app is just darling. My kids and I love the bells and beautiful voice. The animated video became our bedtime song/video to watch. It’s so peaceful and precious. Can’t wait for more apps to come!”
“’There Is A Star’ is an amazing animated music video. The manger scene is incredible!”
