The Gymboree Corporation sells clothes and accessories for kids in the US and Canada. About 600 Gymboree stores carry colorful, fashionable playsuits and rompers for kids up to 12 years old. Gymboree also operates 90-plus Janie and Jack (newborn and toddler apparel), about 80 Gymboree Outlet stores and two online stores: gymboree.com and janieandjack.com. The firm also provides parent-child play programs (designed to enhance child development) at some 555 franchised and three company-operated centers in the US and about 30 other countries.
