The Noodle Dance is a song and dance routine performed by (and possibly created by) Peanut, Jelly, and Baby Butter to help them think of ideas when they are stuck on a problem. Other characters often join the dance as well. When one of the characters, often Jelly, gets an idea, a light bulb appears over their head and a "ding" sound is heard in the show PB&J Otter.
In addition to its normal form, the song had a few variants within the series. One version, used during "Nanner Says I Do," mixed the musical theme of "Here Comes the Bride" within the tune. "A Hoohaw Halloween" featured a Halloween-themed version of the song with modified lyrics, while "Goodbye Lake Hoohaw" used a country-western version, again with modified lyrics.
This song was also used of the Use Your Noodle Time segment on Playhouse Disney.
