The best lesson taught through gabba gabba would have to be to never give up and keep trying. I am constantly reminding my daughter to “keep trying, keep trying, never give up”. Great to instill this lesson in them early on so they know to always try hard and there is nothing they can’t do.
Don’t bite your friends is a big one in our house! My little girl had a problem with this whenever she got frustrated! Me and her brother would always sing don’t bite your friends! It worked!
There are too many wonderful episodes to choose just one. This show has been so influential in my son’s development and in ways I didn’t even imagine. We learned that we have to cover our mouths and wash our hands and not to eat food that falls on the floor in the “Clean” episode. He asks for “soap” santizer when he handles something that feels yucky when we are outdoors. He loves helping me caring for and watering my plants after learning from the “Green” episode that plants need drinks of water to grow. He always wants to help put out the recycling. Every day hum drum things like brushing teeth are fun and an adventure for him because of the show and he is always so excited when it’s Dancey Dance time. I feel like this show has really brought our his personality. I love watching him be inspired to try new things and to “keep trying” when he is frustrated. He even balanced a spoon on his nose in a restaurant by himself after watching a “cool tricks” segment -He was only 2! We really love this show and to be able to bring him to the LIVE show would be AMAZING!!
Don’t your friends is a big episode in my house. My 2 year old who is going to be 3 this Sunday is a very strong willed little girl and when she has trouble expressing herself, she BITES! Which causes a chain reaction of caucus in my house with my 4 year old son. We sing this song a lot and it got us through the frustrations! We would love to celebrate my daughters 3rd birthday with the whole YO GABBA GABBA Gang!
Definitely don’t bite your friends. He says this whenever he sees his older sisters arguing or pushing one another.
Don’t bite your friends was a big on for us! My 2 year old was starting to bite her brother and anybody who got near her when she was frustrated and as a girl she gets frustrated a lot! It seemed to help although, once in a while we have to remind her. She’ll be 3 this Sunday and Yo Gabba Gabba is her favorite! We would love to see them live, next weekend~
My son loves Yo Gabba Gabba, yes we love all the silly songs. I enjoy getting up and dancing around with him especially to the song “hold still” “Let’s get the silly’s out” etc, but my favorite episode would definitely have to be when they teach the kids to try food before saying they son’t like it. My son was a very picky eater, he wouldn’t try apples until he turned 4, there were a lot of things he wouldn’t even touch. Watching that episode gave him a different take on food, and now he tries everything before saying he doesn’t like it. The school has told me that they see a difference in his eating this semester. I took him last year to see Yo Gabba Gabba live and the way he stood and jumped and danced was so amazing, I was so pleased to see my son so happy, he had never acted that way going to Elmo concerts. I would love to take him again this year, but with his birthday just behind us, Christmas on the way and a baby girl expected in January, there just isn’t enough money to take him to see it.
For me, having three kids, all boys! I think the “sharing” episode is the most important! My kids are in all different age brackets but for some reason the two younger ones are always fighting over one another toys! So, for me, helping them to understand sharing is truly caring, is most important…besides don’t fight lol!
the episode that teaches about clean up after yourself. were still working on that one at home!! we love gabba gabba!!
a great episode is with Jack Black he is so funny. It is nice to have a show that both children and adults can watch together
My daughter has definitely learned form the don’t bite your friends episode, she is always repeating it!! I would love to win these tickets for her.
My son absolutely loves this show. Thanks to on demand, this is basically one of the few children shows he watches. Anyway, I like a few episodes. I enjoy the the episode dance and Art the most. As for songs or lessons, I like the lesson from the episode teeth, where they teach you how to brush your teeth and why its important. I also like the many songs that teach you manners (such as telling the truth, not hitting or yelling at their friends, or even saying words like please and thank you. Would definitely love to see them live.
Yo Gabba Gabba is an absolute favorite of grandson. He is like a zombie when that show comes on. It’s so funny to watch and sometimes I can’t help it, I mess with him a little. LOL Anyway, he has learned a lot that from show; two episodes in particular stand out for me, “Keep Trying” and “Clean” especially. “Clean” was the eye-opener on how much he was actually learning. Usually in the morning, my grandson pulls out his toys and play with them for a little while. By noon, the toys are everywhere! One day, I had gone into the kitchen to make us lunch, when I came out with lunch, to my surprise, EVERY toy was picked up & piled in the corner. This precious little 2-year-old said, “Grandma, clean!” He was so proud of himself and I was too. I could hear the “Clean Up” song in the background. Well, that is when I fell in love with the show. LOL
The best episode to me was “Clean” which showed my daughter that it is important to clean up after heself.
Don’t give up…Never give up…lol.. I don’t know the name of the episode..but the song rings in my head over and over and over…SO that must be the most important one! lol
We HEART Yo Gabba Gabba…but have never seen them live.
