Mood Entertainment Extends Argos' Fisher-Price Pre-School Range
LONDON, March 31, 2011 - Mood Entertainment, a division of Mood Media Corporation (TSX:MM)
(LSE AIM:MM) is collaborating with Argos to extend its pre-school product
range across 700 stores across the UK. Mood Entertainment will provide Argos,
the UK's number one toy retailer, with Fisher-Price branded CDs and DVDs for
inclusion in its next catalogue, to be released on 23rd July 2011.
It is the very first time that Argos' catalogue will feature CDs and DVDs
exclusively aimed at the baby and toddler market, creating an entirely new
product category for the popular high street retailer.
The 'ABCs and 123s' range includes a collection of songs and video
stories aimed at pre-school children to promote fun while learning. 'Animal
Classics' encourages toddlers to learn about the animal kingdom through
entertaining, informative songs and videos, specifically developed by experts
to improve a child's early development. The range will also include three CDs
of 'Rainforest Music' designed to relax and sooth babies up to the age of 18
months. These instrumental lullabies blended with sounds from nature, were
developed by Mood Entertainment to encourage babies to sleep peacefully.
"This is an exciting development for Mood Entertainment and we are
honoured to be working with such a high profile and well-known brand as
Argos", said Lorne Abony, CEO and Chairman of Mood Media. We are committed to
developing new products for our customers and we hope to increase our
presence in UK-wide retailers throughout 2011."
"We are pleased to be able to give our customers more choice by providing
an extended baby and pre-school range of products, that is tailored to the
specific development needs of babies and toddlers of all ages," said Yannis
Vaharoglou from Argos. "Offering this selection of audio and video products
opens up a new door for us, and we are looking forward to seeing where this
takes us."
