New Tour Dates for Yo Gabba Gabba Live!

by Jen Rabulan-Bertram

Last year’s sold out live shows had the nation’s kids and their parents chanting, “There’s a party in my tummy, so yummy, so yummy”

This year, our friends over at W!ldbrain just announced that even more cities will get to break it down with Lance and the Yo Gabba Gabba crew.

Over the past few days, there’s been a countdown on YoGabbaGabbaLive.com in anticipation of today’s 10 a.m. announcement of the latest leg of the Yo Gabba Gabba Live tour dates.  Well, the day’s finally here!

Yo Gabba Gabba! Live!:  There’s a Party in My City! is dancey dancing its way to the midwest and Canada with additional performances in Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Toronto, Fort Wayne, Cincinnati and St. Louis for March 2010.

DJ Lance, Brobee, Toodee, Muno, Foofa and Plex are expected to rock out to various tunes, including some that are heard regularly on the show.  The YGG crew knows how to keep their friends on their toes, so be sure to expect some surprises and some special guests at the shows.

The Yo Gabba Gabba Live! There’s a Party in my City was one of our most memorable events of 2009.  We danced, we laughed, we sang and had the most amazing time.  The amount of fun we had at the show solidified our YGG love and proved why shows sell out so quickly.  Word of advice, if you plan to get tickets, don’t delay!  These will sell out!

Great DVDs for Preschoolers

by Jen Rabulan-Bertram

The next installment of the Next Kid Thing Gift Glossary is all about DVDs for toddler and preschoolers.  I’m all about less is more when it comes to tv watching, dvds and video games, especially for the smaller kids.  But a great show on DVD is often what separates me from getting dinner cooked without a meltdown.  So, here are a few dvd picks for preschoolers (and even one for toddlers) that are entertaining for everyone.

There’s a Party in My City Awesome Giveaway

by Jen Rabulan-Bertram

So, you know the Yo Gabba Gabba There’s a Party in My City tour I’ve been buzzing about?  Well, there will be a party in my city!

As I mentioned in a previous post, there are three NYC shows on November 21st at 11 a.m., 2 p.m. (which are both sold out), and because they’re awesome, they added another show at 5 p.m. so more Gabba fans have a chance to hang with the gang. 

DJ Lance, Brobee, Toodee, Muno, Foofa and Plex are expected to rock out to various tunes, including some that are heard regularly on the show.  And I hear that there may even be some special guests at the shows.  Trust me, the Yo Gabba Gabba gang knows how to get down.  (Like there was ever any doubt!)

But, if there was ever a reason to do a Dancey Dance, today’s the day!

Awesomegiveaway

Oh yeah, friends.  That’s right!  Our friends at W!ldbrain are giving one lucky NKT reader four tickets to see Yo Gabba Gabba at the SOLD OUT 11 a.m. show on November 21!  Awesome, right?

Concert tickets, in general, can get pricey—nevermind ticket prices in NYC—which is why I’m so excited about this AWESOME GIVEAWAY.  Four tickets to this show, which run as high as $75 last time I checked, is a dealbreaker for many families.  I think it was quite generous for our friends at W!ldbrain to offer this fabulous giveaway—which by the way, is definitely my favorite/most awesome giveaway ever.
