My first children's TV Question: Handy Manny

Have you tried turning on Closed Captioning to help figure out the words? I realize that sometimes they don't caption the songs but it might be worth a try.

 

Skip Manny. Watch Johnny and the Sprites!

Uno dos tres is 1 2 3

C'mon va ma nos (sp?), is C'mon Let's Go.

Those are the only spanish lyrics I recall. Next time I watch it, i'll try to see if I missed any.

POP-QUIZ - Who voices Manny?

 

Wilmer Valderrama

 

I've got one episode Tivo'd and all I heard on the opening credits was "Handy Manny" repeated over and over. I speak Spanish, and didn't see anything like a song with lyrics in English or Spanish. I'll finish the episode and see if they play it at another point in the show.

I find it hard to believe that the lyrics are nowhere to be found on the net.

 

My kids aren't as interested in this show as they are Dora, Diego and Mickey Mouse.... oh and the new one they like is JoJo's Circus.

 

when it first started my son was all about this show. now he's eh about it, if its on he'll watch it. funny to hear wilmer

I'm always amazed by what they come up with in Diego. My favorite was when the baby turtle cracked out of its shell and started going the wrong way on the beach. Diego noted that the turtle speaks Spanish, so we would have to tell it what to do in Spanish. A just-hatched turtle that speaks Spanish??? Wow.

 

I still say everyone should be watching Johnny and the Sprites!

 

Has anybody watched Diego or Dora on a Spanish language channel? They reverse everything, so Dora will address the audience in Spanish, but then call on friends who only speak English. Then she encourages the kids to speak English. The first time I watched an episode I already knew in English, I was in stitches.

 

''We Fix It''


Let's get going and fix it right

Twist and turn, make it tight

Trabajamos juntos (we work together)

we work together now

Cut it, measure it, tap it flat

Bend and twist, just like that

Each of us has a special job

We work together -- todos juntos (everyone together)

We can fix it right!


''Loading Up The Tools''

Hop up jump in

Come on let's go

Hop up jump in

Si vamanos

Hop up jump in

Don't move too slow (keep up)

Let's get to work

Muy rapido

 

i don't know how old kaylee is...but the imagination movers has a lot of music...and so does phineas and ferb!

 

OK...I've moved on from pushing Johnny and the Sprites to pushing The Electric Company. Watch it!

 

Backyardigans is great. What I really wish is that they still showed reruns of PB&J Otter somewhere. That was my favorite show that my kids have watched. Great, creative music that's different in every episode.

 

Maddie and I like Super Why on PBS and Yo Gaba Gaba on Nick
