Dancin' the Day Away

"Dancin' the Day Away" is the tenth episode of Bear in the Big Blue House. It aired on October 31, 1997.

Summary

Bear is feeling great, so great that he rather wants to dance. His favorite dance is the cha-cha-cha, but he finds that the kids of the Big Blue House are dancing as well. Bear finds Ojo dancing a dance created herself; a variation on the flamenco called the "flamingo." When Bear turns on the radio in his room but leaves to go find his maracas, Treelo comes in and dances. Bear's search leads him to the kitchen, where he finds Tutter taking a nap in the dish rack. Tutter tells Bear that he has "no rhythm, no beat," but Pip and Pop arrive to school him in dancing. Shadow sings a song about a dancing teddy bear.
