SEATTLE (AP) — The
‘Jahnke: children listen to
their father's and mother’s
. voices tell them they are “in
perfect health, beautiful,
smart’ and pérfectly propor-"
. tioned, at’ the perfect ‘weight,
and you’ have healthy teeth

and gums.”

The voices come each night
from a cassette player tucked
with the babies in their crib
and bed. ‘

Bill Jahnke, a Seattle hair-
dresser, says the tapes pro-

." mote a positive self-image for
his seven-month-old daugh-
ter.and two-year-old son. The

“tots also listen to Japanese
and French language lessons,

* classical music and stories.

Experts agree that. more
children are using tape play-
ers as a reading and learning
aid, entertainment device
and companion.

As scon ss their’ fingers
an punch the buttons, kids
are lulling themselves to

sleep. with. music-accompan-.

ied stories on cassettes such
as Walt Disney's The Poky

Little Puppy. They're listen ~

ing to mail-order self-help
tapes such as Self-Confidence
(A Subliminal Programming
Tape). And they're picking
up melody from Joyous and
Uplifting Songs for Children.

‘Tapes have several advan-

tages over records, because
parents can record their own
and children can easily oper-
‘ate the players.

And for less than $60, par-
ents can buy a -cassette
player which the manufactur-
er says is childproof.

SELL AT CHRISTMAS

Al Feuerberg> co-owner of
World of Toys in: suburban
Bellevue, Wash., says sales of.
cassettes and recorders were
strong at Christmas. The
biggest favorites were tapes

ies, some accompanied by
read-along books.

Toy and record stores also
are marketing “rainy-day”
packages with materials and
a cassette that gives instruc-
tions for activities.
