Yo Gabba Gabba! DVD
Ever since the launch of Yo Gabba Gabba! on Noggin last year, our kids have gone nuts for this smart, contemporary high energy kids show. We love the cool celeb cameos from the likes of Jack Black and Amy Sedaris, and music from indie bands that parents like too.
Four episodes and a few extras are now out on this must-have DVD. Be warned: You will get "Party in my Tummy" stuck in your head forever. $13.
