CJ's nieces and nephews

CJ's nieces and nephews are a group of six tadpole children. Their names are Polly, Molly, Wolly, Tad, Chad, and Wart.

They all first appeared in JumpStart Explorers. They also appear in JumpStart Animal Adventures.

Polly Tadpole
Polly is one of CJ's nieces. She wears a pink and yellow shirt, light blue pants, white and pink sneakers, and a water lily flower on the left side of her head.

In JumpStart Explorers, she hides in Egypt. In JumpStart Animal Adventures, she explores the Tide Pool.

She is voiced by Brenda Kazzi.

Molly Tadpole
Molly is one of CJ's nieces. She wears a pink dress, pink shoes, and a large lavender bow with pink speckles on her head.

In JumpStart Explorers, she hides in China. In JumpStart Animal Adventures, she explores the Rainforest.

She is voiced by Rebecca Lovelace.

Wolly Tadpole
Wolly is one of CJ's nephews. He wears a red cap backwards, a red T-shirt, and blue shorts.

In JumpStart Explorers, he hides in Plymouth Colony. In JumpStart Animal Adventures, he explores the Temperate Forest.

He is voiced by Ryan Wiesbrock.

Tad Tadpole
Tad is one of CJ's nephews. He wears a blue cap, a yellow shirt, black pants, red and white sneakers, and dark blue sunglasses.

In JumpStart Explorers, he hides in South America. Unlike the other tadpoles in JumpStart Animal Adventures, he doesn't explore a habitat, and only makes cameo appearances in scenes with all of the tadpoles together.

He is voiced by Edgar Gresores.

Chad Tadpole
Chad is one of CJ's nephews. He wears a large hat similar to CJ's, which covers his eyes. He also wears a light cream-colored T-shirt, a brown vest, light brown shorts, and a red belt.

In JumpStart Explorers, he and Wart hide in Antarctica. In JumpStart Animal Adventures, he explores the Savanna.

He is voiced by Ryan Wiesnbrock.

Chad is almost identical to CJ's World of JumpStart kindergarten design, perhaps suggesting that it was inspired by Chad.

Wart Tadpole
Wart is one of CJ's nephews. He is a baby and is always seen in a fishbowl. He wears a blue suit and a yellow cap, and he is always seen with a yellow pacifier in his mouth. Due to being a baby, he doesn't speak.

In JumpStart Explorers, he and Chad hide in Antarctica. Unlike the other tadpoles in JumpStart Animal Adventures, he doesn't explore a habitat, and only makes cameo appearances in scenes with all of the tadpoles together.

Trivia

 * TadpoleCameo.png]]In the JumpStart Advanced series, Chad and Wolly make a cameo in the JumpStart All Stars tutor feature, in Frankie's exposition on Word Families. Here, their last name is stated to be Johnson. However, Wolly is mistakenly called Chad and Chad is mistakenly called Tad, similar to how the latter is in the opening to JumpStart Animal Adventures.
 * There is evidence that Tad and Wart would've originally had larger roles in JumpStart Animal Adventures. The game contains unused files for a desert habitat that was ultimately scrapped from the game, including unused artwork of Tad and Wart on a desert craft sheet. This indicates that they were originally intended to explore the desert, had it made it into the final release. (See the JumpStart Animal Adventures pre-release and unused content subpage for more details.)
