Yo Gabba Gabba, what?

Daddy scored big time when he bought Yo Gabba Gabba tickets for Helaina for Christmas.  She was SO excited when we got to the theater for the show a few weeks ago.  She could hardly hold her excitement in.  She was squealing, jumping, smiling - it was great to see her so excited.

A picture before the show in front of the DJ Lance Rock backdrop.

"Let's get the sillies out!  Let's get the sillies out!"  Unbelievably, I know all the words to all the songs they perform.  I've seen the TV show more times than I care to admit.

You would not believe the shrieks, screams and clapping from the audience full of kids when the show started and DJ Lance Rock's image came up on the huge screen, just the way each TV show starts.

Then when he walked out on stage the noise was even louder.  You'd think a rock star had just come on stage instead of a dude in a ridiculous orange outfit - but then again, his name is DJ Lance Rock.

One by one each of the 5 characters came on stage to clapping and screams of delight.  Here's Fufa, Muno and Brobee.

Here's Helaina standing up and dancing to the beat.  The kids were all dancing and clapping and singing.  The most amazing thing was that all the parents, including us, were singing the songs too.  Not only did the kids know all the words by heart, but the parents too.

All 5 of the Yo Gabba Gabba gang, including Tuti and Plex the yellow robot.  "Hold still ... wiggle wiggle wiggle go!  Wiggle wiggle wiggle go!"

"There's a party in my tummy - so yummy, so yummy! Green beans want to come to the party in my tummy?"

 

The show was really good.  Helaina loves it because they sing and dance a lot, but parents like it because they teach a different lesson in each show - don't hit your friends, eat healthy foods, get enough sleep, don't litter, be nice to bugs, share with your friends.  It's extremely bizarre with the strange characters, but that's what makes it so unique.  When the show was over there were a lot of kids crying because they wanted to see more.  Was it worth $132 for 3 tickets?  Definately!

I was looking through some old pictures of Helaina right after we brought her home from China and I found this one of her staring at the TV screen watching Muno on Yo Gabba Gabba!  See, she even liked the show when she was 2 years old!
