Animation Friday - It's Playschoooool!

Matilda and I got out to a Playschool Concert yesterday.  Seriously the cutest thing ever is watching a bunch of small people singing and dancing uninhibited!  This little lady took a while to warm up and in fact had a complete FREAK OUT when the Playschool song first started!  As you can see though she was certainly getting her groove on by the end. 

Sweet little fingers making 'diamonds' for twinkle twinkle star.

Our presenters, Abby and Teo. 

And yes, we did get sucked in by the merchandise table.  Could you have resisted a miniture Humpty and a miniture Jemima???

Cintia at My Poppet does Animation Fridays.

I spy with my little eye....

I'm not sure why this picture keeps popping up sideways as it's orientation is the right way up in my files. Praps Blogger is having a picture tanty! Anyway, we are in high party prep at the moment. Can you spy face masks ready for colouring in? Party hats waiting to be folded? Homemade Jemima, Humpty and Big Ted cupcake toppers?

Then of course, what wouldn't you do for this sweet girl singing her own birthday songs?

There's a bear in there...

...and a chair as well. There are people with games and stories to tell. Open wide, come inside. It's Playschool.

Who doesn't love a bit of Playschool every now and then. Especially when you're lucky enough to switch on and get one of those fantastic presenters that you loved yourself. My favourite was always Bonita although I dont think she's been on in recent times. When Oscar was a little boy we took him to a Playschool concert and I got to meet Bonita and had her sign a Humpty Dumpty for us. I tell you it was a highlight of my 'meeting celebrities' life! It certainly ranks up there with meeting Bonnie Tyler!

Matilda has adopted Oscar's signed Humpty along with a Jemima doll and is completely and utterly obsessed. I have been desperately trying to get her on video singing the theme song but of course as soon as you ask for a performance, Miss Shy pops out to say hi. Since she is turning 2 (!!!!!) next month we are going with a Playschool theme and have discovered fantastic FREE party packs on the ABC website. Cute!

Who was your favourite Playschool person when you were a small person? And what about now?
