| A Doodle Do - 1.12.2008 |
Carpooling moms were secretly thrilled when the Disney Channel’s Doodlebops released a CD in 2004, if for no other reason than to get a reprieve from The Wiggles. Nothing against the Aussie quartet, but as any 3-year-old will tell you, the Doodlebops are winning in the looks department: The pink-, orange-, and blue-skinned bandmates sport ’70s-inspired outfits and funky hairdos. And in the midst of the Doodles’ pop- and dance-infused episodes, they dole out lessons on sharing, sibling rivalry, and more.
