The Show Must Go On - 2008 Golden Globes 'Boom Boom Room' Celebrity Gifting Suite - Preschool Prep Company hosts private, VIP suite at high profile event! - Danville, CA (January 14, 2008) – The 2008 "Boom Boom Room" gifting suite had record attendance last weekend despite the fact that the Golden Globes award show was cancelled. Celebrity parents showed up with their babies and toddlers to make the event a huge success. Preschool Prep Company™ was invited to present their award winning DVDs and books, a celebrity favorite. From a private VIP suite at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel, Preschool Prep Company gifted their award winning "Preschool Prep Series Products" at the fabulous two day event. Stars from feature films, sitcoms and daytime television enjoyed the intimate event which showcased products from Preschool Prep Company™, Mustela, Thermos, Mattel and many other companies. Preschool Prep Company™ founder Kathy Oxley said, "Last year we gave our Preschool Prep Series DVDs, to celebrity mom's telling them that if their 15 month old babies watched, they would easily learn letters, numbers, shapes and colors. This year those same celebrities came back telling us what fans they were of our products! Celebrities such as Angela Bassett, Chandra Wilson, Ming Na and Denise Richards were all excited to share the stories of the success that their children had learning upper and lowercase letters, numbers, shapes and colors at a very early age from Preschool Prep DVDs." They were all very excited to see the newest release in the Preschool Prep Series, Meet the Sight Words as well as the new Spanish release of Meet the Letters, Meet the Numbers, Meet the Shapes and Meet the Colors. Kaleb Federline hung out in the Preschool Prep Suite with his caretaker watching Meet the Colors while his mom Shar Jackson toured other suites. "He has to watch it every night before he goes to sleep. It is his favorite," Jackson told the Preschool Prep staff. Preschool Prep Company™ released their award-winning series of books and DVDs in late 2005. Since then, they have received over 25 national awards including the Dr. Toy10 Best Educational Products Award, the Family Choice Award, and Creative Child Magazine's DVD of the Year. This month the Series was awarded the Informal Education Product's "Product of the Year" award. In a study of over 50 babies and toddlers who watched Meet the Letters three to five times a week, over 90% achieved complete upper and lowercase letter recognition within two months. Many learned in less than two weeks. Children who watch Meet the Numbers can easily learn to recognize numbers zero to ten in a few days. Shapes and Colors can be learned in a couple of viewings. Meet the Sight Words uses the same powerful technique as the other DVDs in the series and has become the best selling DVD of the group. Meet the Sight Words is used in preschool and kindergarten classrooms across the country. Chandra Wilson had already picked up a copy of Meet the Sight Words and her son had already mastered the 20 basic sight words that are taught in kindergarten class rooms. "He was only two and he knew all 23 sight words!" exclaimed Wilson. Some of the other celebrities who received Preschool Prep Series™ DVDs included: Chris Noth (Sex and the City, Law and Order: CI), Ali Landry (Eve), Scott Baio (Scott Baio is 46 and Pregnant), Ryan Newman (Hannah Montana), Tori Spelling (Tori & Dean: In Love), Roger Cross (Mad Money, 24), Rena Sofer (Hero's, 24), Omarosa Manigault (Celebrity Apprentice), Nia Long (Boston Legal), Neil McDonough (Band of Brothers, Boomtown), Natasha Henstridge (The Whole Nine Yards), Melisa Joan Hart (Sabrina the Teenage Witch), Kellie Martin (ER), Madison Pettis (Cory in the House, Game Plan), Leah Remini (King of Queens), Kim Porter (Wicked Games), Shar Jackson (Moesha), Joely Fisher (Till Death, Desperate Housewives), Evan Handler (Sex and the City, Californication), Giuliana DePandi Rancic ("E!
