Avery Gene

Avery Marina Gene (born July 5th, 1985 in Ontario, Toronto, Canada) is a Canadian actress, singer, dancer, and presentress, who presented ABeebies from 2014 to 2019.

She is currently on the 1999 rendition of BOUNCE."Growing up I was a massive fan of BOUNCE. I loved to be active, go outside, try new things, and arguably everything about BOUNCE, especially the Playhouse segment. I was overjoyed to learn I had been offered as a BOUNCer, a role I had admired for years. It felt like slipping back into a comfortable pair of shoes.""Before I BOUNCed my way onto public television, I was somewhat a gypsy traveling the world as a singer and dancer. I saw the world from Iceland, Hawaii, Britain, and Australia. When I get back home to Canada I tell everyone all about it.""I have been acting now for 9 years and I have enjoyed the projects I had worked on. From The Little Mermaid to The Wizard of Oz to Peter Pan, the ABeebies channel in Canada, and of course BOUNCE welcomed me with a big hug.""The joy that BOUNCE brings to old and young viewers every day is the reason why I love BOUNCing. The theme song to BOUNCE starts ... 'Sunny Days, sweeping the Rain away...' their little faces light up and the fun of singing, musical guests, and viewer-sent in content begins. I mean, what a way to start the day ... with crafts, recipes, games, plays, and experiments sent in by you!""And to all you BOUNCers out there...""Way to go BOUNCE!!!"
