The Backyardigans

In a place where you belong, where you’ll probably sing a song, and maybe dance along, you’ll find The Backyardigans! Pablo, Tyrone, Uniqua, Tasha and Austin are five animal friends who imagine their backyard as a place of adventure.

*THAT* CERTAINLY IS CONVENIENT

Janice’s inspiration for The Backyardigans was her own backyard in Pittsburgh. As a kid, she and her friends would play hide and seek and imagine they were sailing ships and fending off lions.
