The Disney Traveler

If you have a preschooler (or three like I do), you’re probably familiar with Playhouse Disney.  Most preschoolers love The Wiggles, Jo Jo’s Circus and the other educational and fun programs shown during the morning on the Disney Channel.  If that describes your preschooler, then you’ll definitely want to visit Playhouse Disney Live on Stage at Disney-MGM Studios during your Walt Disney World vacation.

I started bringing by triplets to this show when they were approximately 1 1/2 years old.  They enjoyed the music and puppets then, but now, they love everything about this show.   At nearly 3 years old, they constantly ask to go see, “the Bear” show.  In fact, we’re going to see it tomorrow!

The Playhouse Disney Live on Stage show is hosted by a Disney cast member (always named Jamie) who introduces Bear in the Big Blue House and his friends Ojo, Tutter, Treelo, Pip and Pop.  When the music starts and everyone starts to dance, Tutter feels shy and doesn’t want to join the fun.  In order to help him feel “less shy,” Jamie presents three stories to Tutter.  The first features characters from Jo Jo’s circus.  The second features Stanley and his pet goldfish, Dennis, and the third story features Winnie the Pooh and his friends from the Hundred Acre Woods. 

It’s a fun, interactive show complete with music, dancing, streamers and bubbles falling from the ceiling.  Your kids will help Jo Jo scare away Goliath’s hiccups, say hi to a gorilla with Stanly and Dennis, bounce with Tigger and sing the goodbye song with Bear and Luna.  Warning, all seating is on the floor, but small children are encouraged to get up and dance.  It’s a show truly made for preschoolers!
