Ringing in the changes.

We've updated the site with some minor and some major tweaks.

Access to the cottage is now open to everyone so you don't have to register to explore. "Knock on the door, say hello and take a peek inside"! We've opened up some doors that lead to the Bumblejums bedrooms. We will be adding new items into their rooms over time. There are also some some doors that remain unopened for now!

Onto some bigger changes...

The name Halibo has changed to "Bally Bo". Eagle eyed childrens programming people pointed out that Halibo sounds unfortunately similar to a very well known Candy manufacturer and of course we don't want to promote unhealthy eating... A Bumblejum is more likely to say "Eat your Greens" than eat lots of sugar!! So Bally Bo it is.

Gem has undergone a change to become Jem the sunsational, fun loving and bright as a button, sunshine girl! Her enthusiasm is likely to knock you over so watch out!

We're not finshed there, over the coming months we will be adding more and more updates to the site with animations, games, books and sounds so be sure and check back when you have 5 minutes...

We are also working on some new exciting characters that live in Bally Bo that keep the goings on in Bally Bo interesting as there is always something afoot!

Thanks for visiting and please tell your friends if they have children or nieces and nephews or know someone with children... that must be everyone to come along and visit too! We love visitors and you might even get offered a cup of tea at cosy Hedgy Cottage if the Bumblejums are home!

The Team in Bally Bo!
