Who is Mr. Chuck?
Chuck Johnson, known as Mr. Chuck, is a music educator, author, and performer who blends education and creativity to inspire kids of all ages. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Human and Consumer Sciences with a major in Family Studies, grounding his work in early childhood development, family systems, and social-emotional learning.
Through interactive sing-alongs, rhythm-based learning, storytelling, and creative movement, Mr. Chuck creates welcoming spaces where kids can explore, express themselves, and build confidence through music. He is the creator of Potty Rock!, a classroom-built potty training book and song that turns potty time into party time.
He is also a co-founder of Cooking Caravan, a community-driven program built on the belief that real change starts when we feed it. Guided by the mission to Eat, Educate, and Entertain, Caravan uses food, music, and performance to bring people together and strengthen communities.
As a producer and DJ performing under the name pRODUCT, and as a photographer and videographer, Chuck explores music and visual storytelling as tools for connection, reflection, and healing. We are all products of our unique worlds. When we are seen, heard, and included, creativity becomes the bridge—and community begins to grow.
