How can I get my child on Yo Gabba Gabba?
The creators of Yo Gabba Gabba have said in interviews that they hold auditions shortly before the filming of each season. The child must be available in the Southern California area for callbacks/filming. Currently there are not plans to start filming season four, therefore, there are no auditions currently scheduled. Find this to be unacceptable? ME TOO! So why not sign our petition for Nickelodeon to order a season four, five, six, and so on!
I tried to post something on Gabbafriends.com and I got a notice that it was marked as spam!
As any other website, we get spammers with bad content posting on our pages, and we have to enable our spam filters to keep them out. The biggest problem with filters is that some of your amazing comments with helpful advice and other information get put into the spam folder. Thankfully, this happens very rarely. We try to check it often, but sometimes it gets put on the back burner. If your comment fell into the spam folder, please feel free to email us at Gabbafriends@gmail.com to remind us to look in the spam folder. Thank you for your patience.
Where can I buy the clothes the kids wear on Yo Gabba Gabba?
Unfortunately, the clothes you see on Yo Gabba Gabba were never made for the purposes of retail. If you're feeling crafty, you can make them yourself by using the face templates that Nora so kindly provided for personal use only.
Unfortunately, we don't have the answer as to what link or web address one needs to go to in order to retrieve your pictures from Yo Gabba Gabba Live. (I'm sorry.) The BEST thing to do is to post the question to our forums or Yo Gabba Gabba's Facebook wall and allow other parents who attended the VIP party to answer the question for you.
My bakery refuses to make me a Yo Gabba Gabba cake. Help!
While it is a matter of intellectual property and copyrights, some bakers will risk it, some won't. And unfortunately, we can't give you a copyright release form. (We sure wish we could!)
A great alternative to the Yo Gabba Gabba cake is to use the decorations from Birthday Express! They have cute movable cake figures that the birthday boy or girl will love playing with long after the party is over! There are also great cupcake rings that double as party favors!
Also, there are some really easy cake ideas that don't require specialized cake decorating skills! You can check out those ideas here!
OR, you can purchase a cake decorating kit here, and use it on a bakery cake made with Yo Gabba Gabba colors!
Can Yo Gabba Gabba come to my child's birthday party?
Though you won't be able to get the real Yo Gabba Gabba to come to a birthday party, we have seen a lot of party/entertainment companies making bootleg costumes, but please know this is generally frowned upon.
The best thing to do is either make your own Gabba costumes, or you can purchase a DJ Lance costume and ask a friend or relative to wear it for the party.
Why can't I find merchandise at my local stores? And why is it so expensive online?
Check out our story all about the rare merchandise, and what you can do to change that!
Can I get updates on Twitter or Facebook?
PLEASE follow us on Twitter and Facebook! We put a lot of little insider tips and updates on those sites that won't make it on Gabbafriends.com!
