I Disapprove Scooby Doo Stage Fright

Like Legend Of The Phantosaur, I deeply disapprove Scooby Doo: Stage Fright. It reminds me of Thomas & Friends: Legend Of The Lost Treasure, a Thomas film I don't like, which also reminds me of 'One Of Us' from The Lion King II. In fact, both movies remind me of that song:

The 'Hood: I'm A Big Kid Now Teaser

They ain't 4 no more!

It's naptime at Kindy, and Bingo falls asleep and has a dream where she, Lila, Missy and Tiny Clanger become the same age as Izzy and her big kid friends. Now they can do anything ranging from playing laser tag to playing their own tunes at the sweet shop. Named after Huggies Pull-Ups' famous slogan, this episode shows how the older versions of these adorable girls juggle the tasks of the awkward life of a big kid, such as schoolwork, boys, a school dance - complete with awesome dance moves - and a basketball game gone wrong.

While you're waiting, you can make a height chart to see how your big kid grows and accomplishes new tasks everyday:

Or you can make a reward chart and reward your child with lots of nice treats only Izzy and the gang would engage in:

https://habyts.com/51-reward-ideas-to-motivate-and-inspire-kids/ - Use The 'Hood or Bluey themed excuses for each reward, such as "Izzy and her mum have just been to the shops and brought you a magazine!" or "The big kids are going on a class field trip to the museum. Bluey and her school are going too with their teacher Calypso. They've invited us along!" or "Bluey's dad's trying to finish a puzzle. We need to help him finish it!"

Or, celebrate your achievements by dancing to Koop's 'Forces...Darling', like Bingo and her friends will do in the episode!
