Little Thinker
The Little Thinker series was an interactive listening experience involving storytelling, education, music, and art, released through a company called Jerome Enterprises based in Florida. The Little Thinker tapes were a series of children's entertainment aiming to foster creativity and enthusiasm for learning. In each tape, the series' hostess "Nancy" led the listener through an educational lesson on a topic chosen from a wide range of possibilities. These lessons usually took the form of an imaginary journey. Nancy would describe the adventure and ask the listener - addressed as "Little Thinker" - to imagine that they were experiencing it together. At regular intervals, the hostess would play music (from the Production music provider, Valentino Music) to allow the Little Thinker time to draw a picture of the events imagined in the previous segment.
The Little Thinker tapes were sold in toy stores around the United States and Canada in audio cassette format. The tapes were sold individually and in four collections. The first six tapes, ''All About Fun Poems'', ''All About Manners and Morals'', ''All About Safety'', ''All About Animals'', ''All About Outer Space'', and ''All About the Sea'', were all released in 1978 and anthologized in the box set ''Little Thinker Tapes Vol. 1''. The second set of six appeared in 1979. It included ''Think About the Circus'', ''Think About Dinosaurs'', ''Think About the Weather'', ''Think About Super-sites in America'', ''Think About Ways to Travel'', and ''Think About Sports''. By the release of Little Thinker Tapes Vol. 3 in 1982, the series had grown popular enough to support a fan club. Members were called "Thinkerniks," a term that replaced "Little Thinker" as Nancy's pet name for her listeners. The last six tapes, anthologized in the third volume, were ''Think About Life on the Farm'', ''Think About the Desert'', ''Think About the Old West'', ''Think About the Planet Earth'', ''Think About the World of Music'', and ''Think About People on the Job''. A final comprehensive set of Little Thinker Tapes was issued in 1983. However, at some point, a special tape called ''Think About Christmas'' was released, though never included in any collection.
