Hey, Moms! Are your kids watching the Backyardigans on Nick Jr.? I mean, after you have your suzuki violin lessons, homeschooling, basket weaving, fingerpainting, flash card training, Spanish and French coursework, and bread baking, of course! This show is one of the best around, maybe THE best. The music, by Evan Lurie, is the BOMB (as the kids say….or is that over now?)! That guy is a genius! The characters are animal kids and they sing but, man, this time, kid singing is good, really, I swear. Each episode has its own genre of music, too, like country, calypso, reggae. Cool, catchy tunes with songs you might just have to dance to. And that brings me to the choreography! YES! How many animated shows can you say have brilliant choreography?! None, except this one. Funny, sweet (but not saccharin), clever….I can’t rave enough. I love those Backyardigans! I might have to buy their CD’s (not DVD’s!) for the ipod, the car, the house…. And don’t tell anyone, but I almost bought Pablo at the airport in Dallas, too…….
Come join the Let the dog in! gang on Facebook and Twitter!!

i love it too! My problem is that I love it more than the 4 year old in my house. How sad is that!?!! I can’t even get my kid to watch the kid shows I want to watch.
That is sad! At least my child enjoys thus far…. I hope she does not grow out of it too soon.
Wendy,
Your starting to scare me….
Hey, don’t knock it ’til you try it!

Yes! Backyardigans, is cool as my five year old says it. From birth (if I can say that) he loves Thomas and friends, but when timewarner cable started showing backyardigans on Nick Jr. he started picking interest and as he turned four and half he is all consumed by the backyardigans. I also like their music but I really love the music of wonder pets.
