I have a very fussy baby girl. She is extremely clingy and demanding, and is quite vocal when something is bothering her. It was difficult for me to find time to myself to do laundry, dishes, type an email or what have you. One day in early September 2007, my sweet 3-month-0ld girl was having one of her tantrums, and I was desperately trying to sooth her. In desperation, I turned on the TV and zoomed in on the kid-show channels. I tried a few common, standard kid shows to see if any would appease my wailing child, but no. But then, something magical happened... I stumbled on a new show I'd never seen before called "Yo Gabba Gabba" and the crying came to a STOP! Wow.
The next time we saw Yo Gabba Gabba we caught the show in it's entirety. Whenever any of the main characters were on, my daughter was completely transfixed (she wasn't a big fan of the cartoon segments though). Now my baby girl is 10 months old. We have all the episodes (except for the Halloween one we missed)on Tito for her. Most of the time, as soon as she sees DJ Lance Rock walk onto the set in the opening segment, she starts to laugh, or at least smile. She's even taken a liking to the cartoon segments now! No other Cartoon or kid's show will hold her interest for long, but she'll watch an entire episode of Yo Gabba most of the time, and will even bop around and hum to some of the music. She's still a pretty demanding baby, but has mellowed a bit. Now when she starts to fuss or just needs a pick me up or mama needs a few minutes, Yo Gabba Gabba is there for us. And my husband, 6-year-old son and I have all found ourselves singing various songs we've heard on Yo Gabba Gabba from time to time. They're contagious! We ALL love Yo Gabba Gabba and can't wait for the new 2008 second season episodes to come out and for the first season episodes to be released on DVD! Oh, and our daughter would just adore some cuddly Yo Gabba Gabba dolls (*hint*hint*)!
To all involved, THANK YOU from our whole family (but especially from little Vee-Vee)!!!
