Playhouse Disney is getting a couple new hosts for their programming block. It will be 2 monkey puppets named Ooh and Aah.
Ooh and Aah, a pair of fun-loving monkey brothers, will host the programming block every day from their tree house in the jungle. Ooh, the refined blue monkey, loves to read and listen to classical music. Aah, the lively red monkey, loves to dance and play. Together, they encourage viewers to play along in fun games including “Crystal Coconut,” “Guess Ooh” and their very own game show, “What’s That Banana?”
The switch will be made on March 31st and will come with new graphics creating a whole new look for Playhouse Disney. No word yet on what will happen to current host Clay.

My 8 month daughter Abby loves Ooh & Aah. It is her favorite part of Playhouse Disney every morning. Are there any toys made of them yet? We bought her a pink monkey that looks like them and were thinking of dying it red or blue if no toys are available.
My daughter Abbey also loves the monkeys…did anyone find them available for purchase?
I to would like to know if anyone has found any toys my son LOVES them
I want Ooh and Aah toys for my daughter Tatum too! She loves them more than any of the other characters!
I too would love to buy Ooh and Aah for my son. And I would love to see a video of them as well. They are great. We plan to use them as the theme for his 2nd bday.
My son also loves the monkey duo! i would love to know where i can buy them. please let me know if you find them. i did read somewhere that they are only available in a store in Disney World. thanks sarah
my 7 month old loves the monkey show watches it every morning. Does anyone know where to get the puppets from? please let me know if you find out
I wrote the Disney Store about this and received the following response:
Thank you for your e-mail.
Unfortunately tehre is no merchandise available at the moment for Ooh and
Aah. If I do get anymore information on Ooh and Aah merchandise or any
release dates I will let you know.
I am very sorry that I couldn’t be of more help.
Best wishes,

I too am looking for the puppets…..so Disney, get to making them.
Im a kdg. teacher and I have a 7mo. son. We too, love Ooh and Aah and would benifit from puppets and puppets from the classroom. I hope you would consider merchandizing Ooh and Aah!
Maybe…maybe Clay wanted to leave and be gone for good, or bail because he was tired of being rich or….hmm, maybe he got squashed by a hand! Ouch!
Many people have been waiting for years for these plush, Clearly the company does not care what people want, their store just sits displaying things people don’t want.
My sons requested me to check on how to mail their drawings to ooh and ahh cos they watch the shows and they wish to participate too..
Can you please advise
My 1 year old son loves ooh and aah, are the puppets available to purchase?
Why is nobody taling about how these 2 monkeys are GAY.
JEEEZ
Oh look! A mental retard just commented! Let’s us mature adults just ignore what he just said. Anyway… I wish Disney would see how much their new hosts are loved! My two-year old would love to have them or anything at all to do with them too! If only they could release something already! And right before Christmas!
I believe the mental retard is right, those two monkeys are gay.
And what’s up with these parents that have such a desire to buy their kid a toy from this show? It just seems to have such a consumerism overtone to it all. Why not just enjoy the show. Beside, give your kid three weeks and they will have to moved on to something else.
They’re brothers. It ain’t like Bert and Ernie pal.
The monkeys are TOTALLY gay! LOL
But that’s not the point….my son loves them and I think they are very entertaining. I do not have some desperate need to buy him merchandise but if it were out there I would maybe get a couple stuffed versions of them just b/c they are funny and cute.
I always thought that the accusations of Disney pushing a gay agenda were probably nonsense. Then I saw Ooh and Aah. One is possibly gay, but the other is FLAMING.
Needless to say, we’ll be blocking DC. Way to be trustworthy, Disney! Sheeeesh.
Blocking the Disney Channel?
I think the trustworthiness problem is between Jim and his kids. They should no longer trust him to make wise decisions for their upbringing.
What’s next, Jim? …Blocking the WB because the people aren’t your color? …Blocking Discovery because they might learn something that you can’t teach them (and haven’t censored if it doesn’t agree with whatever ideas you, yourself, haven’t been brainwashed to believe)? …Blocking Sprout because some of the show hosts come from a country different than yours?
Yes, protect them from violence. Protect them from sex (actual sex, Jim, not your propensity to always imagine what sex might be going on…that’s in your head…you might need therapy for that). Protect them from hate…like the hate you’re showing for an inanimate piece of fabric and stuffing who’s voice actor uses a lisp. Most of the gay people I know don’t lisp and most of the lispers I know aren’t gay.
You’re reacting to your misplaced thought that Disney (not a company I’m that fond of, by the way) might be conditioning your kids to accept people who speak differently than most by conditioning your kids to dislike people who speak differently than you.
Time to turn in your parenting license, Jim, or hope that your kids will learn to be good people from someone outside your house.
My little girl stops screaming her head off when there on. She is nine months and if they do release something I would buy it to minimize her screaming! I know that buying her silence is not the greatest thing to do but sometimes it is what it is!
Wow, another flaming liberal going off on a mile long rant to defend the very stuffed animals he is saying are irrelevant. There is nothing retarded nor narrow minded about not wanting token gay characters used throughout children’s programming, or the gay lifestyle shoved down our throats every chance they get. No one is bashing gays here, they just prefer their highly impressionable children not be exposed to alternate lifestyles until they are old enough to understand. These people have a personal opinion on their values and how they want to raise their children which is every bit as valid as those who oppose it. That’s what makes our country great. They don’t take the liberal low ground by name calling and other childish responses as some on here do. Sam and Charlotte, enjoy your lives as homosexuals, but understand there are others to consider besides yourselves and you discredit yourselves with your childish responses. The only thing those of us who want to raise our boys to become men is to turn our channels when these characters are on or just turn the TV off altogether and spend quality time with our them. I find the consumerism even more offensive than they gay monkeys. These people can’t part with their money fast enough.
Bravo, Drew. Charlotte justifies her position by going on a hate-filled angry rant accusing the poster of being an unfit parent. That’s exactly the problem – the smug “tolerant” people are sometimes the most intolerant hypocrites. Give me a break, Charlotte, no one’s impressed by your liberal rant. And if they are, fine. Just leave the rest of us alone. Just because a man doesn’t want his young son watching effeminate monkeys, you manage to label him a bad parent, a racist and an horrible person all in one post. Congratulations, you are SO much more enlightened than the rest of us Neanderthals. Please…
Drew,
“Flaming liberal” because I point out bigotry and inequity to fellow humans? You could have easily called me “devout Christian” because Jesus taught the same acceptance of those different than you.
Not that it matters to the conversation, but I’m about as straight as they come. Telling, though, that you assumed only a member of a group could support the rights of that group’s members (even if to simply exist). Remember that evil is the concept of thinking that only what’s best for your group is what you should be fighting for rather than what’s best for all.
“Remember that there are others to consider besides yourselves” was exactly my point to Jim. Others different than Jim who have as much right (no less and no more) to live as they are. Others (in this case homosexuals) that make up a non-trivial portion of the world in which your children will grow up. Their existance is not a threat to you. There is no “agenda” to “force anything down your throat” any more than a black character on a TV show is “forcing a black agenda down your throat” or a female character on a TV show is “forcing a female agenda down your throat” (Lifetime TV aside). These are all facets of society and reflecting them (hopefully accurately) in characters on TV isn’t a threat to you either. Why so defensive?
And yes, it is narrow-minded to intentionally exclude (or disproportionally include) any facet of society in children’s programming. Hey, let’s pretend the Jews don’t exist… or the mentally disabled. Because that makes some people “uncomfortable”.
Yes, Jim can raise his children any way he wants to, but to continue to do as he is doing does them a disservice. I would hope he’d want to do better. I would hope that such mistakes would be pointed out to me. My goal is to raise my children to be as fair, honest, and caring as possible. That they share my political beliefs is far less important. Jim seems to disagree. Shame for his kids… who were the ones my original post was intended to help.
I’d like to know how exposure to “these characters” in any way affects your ability to “raise your sons to become men”. I guess your definition of “men” differs from mine, at least that yours somehow must include the phrase “…and puts their thingy into women”.
I couldn’t agree more, though, with your point about turning the TV off and spending real time with your kids. Your time is the most important gift you can give them. Showing them how to play games competitively but fairly, how to work and play hard, how to help those who need help, and how to have some friends that are like you and some friends who aren’t.
You would think that with as many people that are looking for ooh and aah stuff they would make it. My son loves it when they come on. He dances to their song. If anyone knows where to get any ooh and aah stuff let me know ASAP. His B-day is coming!! Thanks!
Who ever it is that is saying they are gay, you know nothing about them. They are BROTHERS, look it up!!!
If anyone has heard about these characters please let me kno we have a 11 month old little girl that loves them.. she was sent to us from social services and had some really bad issues when she was born.. she has come along way from when we first got her… for her to be able to sing and dance or interact with television shows is something that we never thought she could do!!! AND she loves ooh and aah!!
First of all, kids would have NO idea that two monkey puppets who happen to be male and hang out together all the time are gay. That’s just a stupid way to look at it. I have to disagree with you Jim and Drew – whether you agree with the alternate lifestyle or not, you owe it to your children to teach them to be open-minded and accepting of EVERYBODY. They’ll be better people for it. Shame on you.
Would it not be counterintuitive to have “gay” hosts of a kids show…or am I the only one who sees the biological and physiological irony here?
If anybody can find at least one more Clay website, make a link to it.
I don’t understand why people are being so ridiculous. . . I wanna buy these monkeys because my kids light up when they see them not because of consumerism or whatever the hell those morons are talking about. . .I’m quite possibly the youngest parent here and apparently I’m more grown up than those idiots. And by the way you can’t buy them. . .you have to make them it makes for a fun project for parents and kids.
I would like to buy ooh & ahh puppets for my son. Please help me!
Thanks
