3:00PM – Pinky Dinky Doo! “Great Big New Year/Pinky Dinky Doo Year” (PREMIERE)

Tyler is curious why Jackson’s family doesn’t put up baby decorations for the New Year like the Dinky Doos because thought that was a TRADITION for every family. Pinky tells a story about when the Toilette family and the alien family come to visit Monkey Island for the New Year holiday. Big Sister Monkey can’t wait for her family’s New Year TRADITION: Baby Monkey dresses like a New Year’s Baby and hands out banana smoothies. But Daffinee can’t wait for her family TRADITION: to play “Happy New Year Clock Toss.” Bleepy Bloopy can’t wait for the his family TRADITION: an alien lightshow. They all want to do their TRADITION tonight and can’t decide which one they should do. Big Sister Monkey THINKS BIG and, when she sees everyone sharing the different food they brought, realizes they can share their New Year’s TRADITIONs too! So they do all three and it’s so much fun that it becomes a new New Year’s holiday TRADITION. Tyler asks why they hang baby stuff on New Year’s Eve and Pinky explains that Daddy was born on New Year’s Eve so it became a family TRADITION.

It is almost time for the New Year which means it’s time for a new calendar and a new storypad. But Tyler doesn’t want a new storypad or a new year because he isn’t MOTIVATED to try new things. So Pinky tells a story where she takes Tyler and Mr Guinea Pig on a walk through Made-Up Storyland on the last day of the Great Big Year. As they walk through the Garden of Last Year’s Stories they run into some of their old friends and remember the good times they had. They see Burpzilla, P. Piddy Pony, and Vicki Chicken, all of whom they invite along on their walk. But as they continue on their journey they come to the end of the path – a wall blocks the way to more characters and more new stories. It is time for Pinky to THINK BIG. Pinky takes up a piece of chalk and draws an entryway in the wall. On the other side there is more sidewalk and many more adventures to be had for Pinky and her friends. Tyler realizes that you can make up new stories while also keeping old favorites. He is now MOTIVATED to hear lots of new stories in the New Year. Pinky, Tyler, and their friends celebrate with a Happy Doo Year celebration.

Encores:

Wed. 12/31: New Years Eve @ Midnight!

Thurs. 1/1/09: New Years Day @ 3:00PM

5:00PM – Toot & Puddle “Year of the Pig/Robinson Toot” (PREMIERE)

It’s New Years in Woodcock Pocket and the gang is celebrating. All are happy and excited except for Dr. Ha Song, who is now a bit homesick missing his family in China. Toot sees this, so he devises a plan for everyone to surprise Dr. Ha Song with his very own Chinese New Years Party. Kung Hei Fat Choy! Toot and Puddle craft a dancing dragon costume, while Otto puts together some paper lanterns. With the help of a few additional townspeople, the team is able to surprise Dr. Ha Song, and have another great party!

Tired of Woodcock Pocket’s snowy weather, Toot travels off to the islands of Palau where he meets a crab. Together they have a carefree life of volleyball, snorkeling, and snoozing in a grass hut, on a secluded little island, until Toot has to return to Woodcock Pocket.
