That song in my head

My younger brothers and sister were big Barney the Dinosaur fans. I was a teenager and hated everything about that purple mascot. I swore that MY kids would never watch anything so stupid. As it is, I didn't let Kinsey watch TV until she was 18 months old, and now, we try to stick to the Sprout channel. It has very limited commercials and the programs are all age appropriate with positive messages.

They also have really catchy theme songs.

So, as I go about my day, I have a constant stream of chatter in my head that sounds like this: "I'm just a kid whose 4...They call me Kipper, the dog with a sniffer...When you hear that fire alarm, Sam is always cool and calm...Play with me Sesame, Play with me Sesame...Wake up, Jeff!

You get the picture. It's awful.

But, Kinsey LOVES the shows and loves to dance to the tunes, so it looks like we are in this for the long haul.

And PS... It doesn't seem that Barney has filmed any new episodes. I remember every single one that has come on this week. Ugh.
