I just had to share Meg's latest fettish . . . Disney's
Happy Monster Band . If you are reading this and you have kids, you have to check it out. She LOVES LOVES this 5 minute show that comes on the Disney Channel each morning at 9:25 am. Each day it's just a simple, cute music video about something that kids should learn -- hygene, being a good sport, making friends, etc. The lyrics are funny, the music is spirited, and Meg is IN LOVE.
Of course, now that she's seen (and we've TIVOed) all 8 or 10 episodes the Disney runs, she pretty much knows them by heart. She walks around the house 'clawing left' or 'clawing right' (from the "Monster Hoedown" . . . or she waves her fist in the air chanting, "Go! Go! Go!" (from "Get Up and Go Go Go!") It's so fantastic to see her have her very own opinions and fall in love with something that she thinks is so fun.
Happy Monster Band has not, by any means, trumped the old fav,
The Backyardigans . Uniqua, Pablo, Tyrone, Tasha, and Austin are still very VERY well known around here . . . and they are still taking up about 3 hours in our TIVO database. I don't know that anyone can complete with them . . . Meg sure does enjoy those 'Yardigans.

That little mini sing song show totally has a "Beetles" feeling to it! The kids watched them all and thought they were great!

I agree -- they do sound a bit Beatle-like, don't they?! The band is actually a band from Michigan called Tally Hall . . . it's funny to listen to their 'regular' songs and hear the Happy Monster Band voices.
Good post.
