Educational Activities for Kids - Jingle

What is a jingle?

A jingle is a short, catchy tune that is often used in advertising or marketing to help promote a product or service. Jingles are usually easy to remember and often use simple, repetitive lyrics or melodies. They are often used in television or radio commercials, but they can also be used in other forms of advertising, such as on the internet or in print. Jingles are designed to be memorable and to stay in the listener's head, so that they will be more likely to remember the product or service being advertised.
