Eleanor is a female elephant who first appeared in JumpStart Preschool (1995).

In the past, she was often the mascot character for JumpStart's preschool media.

Appearance
Eleanor was originally depicted with gray skin and blue eyes. She wore a pink bow on top of her head with a heart in the center. In JumpStart Pre-K, her skin has a slightly more brownish tone.

In JumpStart Preschool (1999), Eleanor has light gray skin. She wears a pink bow and a yellow dress with a white collar.

In later appearances, Eleanor is depicted with pink skin. In the JumpStart Advanced series, she wears a purple bow, a purple dress over a white shirt, and black shoes. She also has blueish-purple irises.

In her artwork for JumpStart 3D Virtual World, she is depicted as being much larger and having a wider trunk. She has three forms, one for preschool and kindergarten, one for 1st grade, and one for 2nd grade. Her preschool and kindergarten form is small with a large lavender bow on her head, and a lavender jumpsuit with a tutu. Her 1st grade form is bigger and has a slightly smaller bow. Her second grade form is even bigger, and she has a single straight hair sticking up from her head with a small purple bow tied around it, and her jumpsuit has a floral design on the front.

Personality
Eleanor is often depicted as dainty and interested in reading. She is often depicted as having a great memory as well.

The JumpStart Blog says, "Don’t let her strength fool you; Eleanor is also the daintiest and most graceful of the JumpScouts. She loves to hang out at the reading arcade, but is always up for a good game of catch in Ivy’s meadow." The JumpStart Blog also mentions that she loves flowers and her garden, and that she is a known baker.

Eleanor's profile in JumpStart World says, "Eleanor, the elephant, is super strong and very smart. She loves to read to her teddy bear and to dance in the garden. Eleanor says, 'Come find me for a game of catch, any time.' Eleanor and Pierre are good friends."

In the JumpStart Advanced series, Eleanor's learning type is 'The Wordsmith'. The manual for JumpStart Advanced 2nd Grade says, "Eleanor teaches children using her linguistic learning style. She loves to use poetry, reading, and other language cues to help children understand ideas."

In JumpStart Preschool (1999), Eleanor is depicted as more quiet and humble. When Kisha suggests that Eleanor could be in a book about famous elephants someday, Eleanor says, "Oh, I don't know about that..."
