Go Baby is a fairly new skit shown on Playhouse Disney in the morning. This 'show' is approximately 5 minutes long, and has a baby in different locations. In each location the audience is supposed to teach baby how to play a drum, build a sand castle, and more. An adult voice asks for help, and says thanks for the help after a space of time.
During this clip the baby is very animated, cooing, smiling, and clapping. Toddlers love to look at babies, and this miniature show is a big hit for the younger set as children 'help' the baby learn today's lesson.
Go Baby can be seen in the mornings on the Disney Channel and is shown a few times a week. With only 3 different shows filmed, there is not a lot of variation, but the target age group of 3 to 6 doesn't seem to care. The minute that familiar music begins, they come running to the television
J. Walter Hawkes, who has composed for film as well as television, is the composer of Go Baby. He has also performed with Ray Charles and Macy Gray. You can currently find him as a member of JC Hopkins Biggish Band, which may have a modest name, but is loaded with talent. Disney Channel is very lucky to have Hawkes help with Go Baby.
While Go Baby is not a full length television show, even by Disney Channel standards, where many shows are 20 minutes long followed by 10 minutes of commercials, Go Baby is long enough to enthrall a 2 or 3 year old while it is showing.

Ok, like all the other reviews, I too, would like to see Go Baby on dvd! When I set up a recording on my DVR, if the times are off, we miss the start or ending. I would definately buy a DVD of Go Baby! My 2 1/2 year old daughter just loves it! I have had to handle many emotional episodes because I cannot produce Go Baby except from the website. She also enjoys Emily Yeung and Daniel Cook. A suggestion would be to have a DVD with all of them on it? PLEASE help us parents out and produce a DVD with Go Baby on it!!!!!! Our lives should be made easier, not harder!

My 2 year old LOVES Go Baby. I don't know what it is about the show but she is completely mesmerized. I like that it is 5 minutes. It works as a great TV treat before bedtime without commiting to a long show. We had recorded a few to our DVR, but then switched providers and lost all our recordings. And it seems Go Baby is not playing on Playhouse Disney these days. She asks for Go Baby everday. I did find some excerpts on the Disney website, but we are having Go Baby withdrawel.

WE NEED DVDS ON GO BABY! Its the best show for little ones. They love it. They hear the song and they start running. It stops my one year old in her tracks. Go Baby is the only show she will sit and watch. All the other ones she will watch for a few sec then walk away. So YES, please bring it out on dvd.

I took a few minutes to watch disney this morning before going to work and was transfixed by this series. Working with Native families in Sacramento, our program has a plasma tv on while families wait to see a Case Worker. We have found that this not only calms parents but children as well. I found your series to be inviting, fun, calming, entertaining and a reminder on how we all learn. "Go Baby" would be an added bonus for our Native families to have as DVD's . Please consider developing for distribution. Thank you and please produce more episodes.
