Little Einsteins being phased out

Not much of a surprise there. Seems to be a fairly constant rotation of the Playhouse Disney characters in and out of the M&Gs and the stage show.....

To be expected since the have Little Einsteins on at some un-Godly hour of the morning. However, I will always have a special fondness of June. The very first time we went to WDW w/ our kids my daughter was not quite 2 yet and was petrified of all of the characters. We went to the Hollywood & Vine lunch and she saw June. June was so gentle and patient with her and she loved her and after that was not afriad of the characters anymore. My daughter is 5 now, says she doesn't remember anything from the first trip but she still wants to do the H&V lunch because of fondness of June.

If all goes with The Muppets movie, we will be seeing a lot more of the muppets in the future!

I had the EXACT same experience about a year and a half ago with my then 3-yr old daughter! I wonder if it was the same CM? June literally sat with her arm around my daughter for like 10 minutes while she ate her pancakes. Definitely one of those "Disney Difference" moments for me.

Very sad to hear the Little Einsteins are on the way out. I also have a special fondness of June, but not having anything to do with the character. One of my good friends who I have done theatre with performed as the speaking voice of June for the show throughout its run and also for the Playhouse/Disney Junior show. She would be upset to see her character disappear from the park, as would I.

We had our Little Einsteins experience back when our oldest daughter was into them. But nowadays, I don't think there's much of a demand. We don't watch Jake and the Neverland Pirates, but I've heard good things. I'll assume the demand for Jake is higher than for the Einsteins.

Agreed. With the way Disney cycles through shows and characters, I am actually surprised the Little Einsteins weren't gone already.

I hear ya! But I also could not believe how long Jo-Jo and Goliath hung on at Play and Dine. I say out with the old and in with the new as far as Disney Junior goes!!

We saw Miss Piggy and Kermit together back in 2004 and always wonder why we haven't seen them since? Nice if they brought them back
Jake and the Pirates look interesting, but haven't seen their show. Who knows if we will meet them, my husband wanted to meet Handy Manny last trip for fun and our DD 14 was no where to be found.

TWDC is crossing their collective fingers.
I hope the film does well because The Muppets are a great property. Having more of them in the parks would be a great thing!
