Wee Sing is a series of children's direct-to-video musical films created by two elementary music teachers, Pam Beall and Susan Nipp, consisting of various children's songs being strung together with a cohesive plot.The series initially started out as a series of songbooks in 1977, the first of which was titled "Wee Sing Children’s Songs and Fingerplays". In 1981, the series would add audio cassette tapes to the books as companion pieces, with the books becoming more or less lyric sheets.This was taken one step further in 1985, when the first Wee Sing video, Wee Sing Together, was produced, beginning a series of videos that continued until 1996 with the release of Wee Singdom.These videos include: Wee Sing Together (1985) King Cole's Party (1987) Grandpa's Magical Toys (1988) Wee Sing in Sillyville (1989) The Best Christmas Ever! (1990) Wee Sing in the Big Rock Candy Mountains (1991) Wee Sing in the Marvelous Musical Mansion (1992) The Wee Sing Train (1993) Wee Sing Under the Sea (1994) Wee Singdom: The Land of Music and Fun! (1996) Wee Sing Favorites: Classic Songs for Kids (1996) Wee Sing Favorites: Animal Songs (1996) | |

Green-Eyed Monster: This turns out to be Andy Bandy Man's motive in Marvelous Musical Mansion— Aunty Annabella forgot to magically freeze him after his performance, so he was awake to watch the kids heap praise on the other three music boxes and Meter Mouse, who lives in the grandfather clock. He comes to doubt his own talents and decides to steal items from the others to prove that he is just as special as they are. | |

Ambiguously Human | |
| Wee Sing / int_225d8ff9 | comment |
Ambiguously Human: Sillywhim of Wee Sing in Sillyville looks human enough, but she also demonstrates the ability to teleport whenever she likes. She can also use her music-note bubble blower to generate rainbows which can teleport other things, turn individuals invisible, and perform minor telekinesis (as demonstrated when she knocks the Twirlypops for a loop). Sillywhim is also something of a Fisher King, as her clothing's colors are inherently tied to the level of friendship in Sillyville—when the populace fights, the hues fade to black and white. As such, it's not entirely clear what she is, which is perhaps justified by her being a coloring book character. | |

The Complainer Is Always Wrong | |
| Wee Sing / int_2711e392 | comment |
The Complainer Is Always Wrong: Refreshingly averted as the main moral of The Big Rock Candy Mountains. In the "real world," Lisa's friends all leave when she starts being overly controlling about what to do, and she whines that they're in the wrong for not following her lead ("Why don't they want to play what I want to play?"). In the Big Rock Candy Mountains themselves, the Meecy Mice repeatedly protest Little Bunny Foo-Foo's rough treatment and make it explicitly clear that they don't like what he's doing, but he refuses to hear it and keeps badgering them until he's magically punished by the Good Fairy. Both Lisa and Little Bunny Foo-Foo (and, by extension, the audience) learn that if someone is uncomfortable with your behavior and raises a complaint about it, you should definitely listen to what they have to say and respect their boundaries and wishes. | |

| Wee Sing / int_272b4fce | comment |
What's Up, King Dude?: King Cole in King Cole's Party casually pals around with all his subjects and servants. Several funny moments come from the queen's attempts to make him behave more regally. He also loves the humble gifts Jack, Jill, Mary and Little Boy Blue bring to his party more than any of the priceless treasures others bring. | |

Defrosting Ice Queen: A mild example in The Big Rock Candy Mountains. Profster, while not mean, is incredibly prim and unimaginative. The gang persuades him to loosen up while looking for shapes in the clouds; he eventually catches on and starts singing "Grizzly Bear." | |

Girlish Pigtails: Sillywhim, in keeping with her exuberant Woman Child character. Both the Dutch Girl and Maggie the Rag Doll in Grandpa's Magical Toys have pigtails too, as dolls often do. Several of the little girls in the series – Sally and Christina in Wee Sing Together, Jill in King Cole's Party, Biffy Bitty Booty in Wee Sing in Sillyville, Nellie in The Best Christmas Ever and Casey in The Wee Sing Train – have them too. | |

Adapted Out | |
| Wee Sing / int_33d5b7f2 | comment |
Adapted Out: King Cole's Party is based on the songbook and album Wee Sing Nursery Rhymes and Lullabies, where the main little boy character who gives King Cole his own blanket as a gift is Georgie Porgie. But King Cole's Party omits both the character and his rhyme, and Jack of "Jack and Jill" fame becomes the blanket-giver. | |

TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers | |
| Wee Sing / int_378039e | comment |
The Last of These Is Not Like the Others: In Marvelous Musical Mansion, Uncle Rubato's music box collection includes a one-man band, a tap-dancing group of a cappella singers, a quintet orchestra, and...a ballerina. The last definitely makes an impression as the only box not centered on song in some way, although she does sing while she dances. Tellingly, it's the ballerina's scarf that gets stolen during the mansion's crime wave, which also stands out as the only purely decorative item that goes missing (and makes Uncle Rubato's claim that she can't dance without it seem a little silly). In The Wee Sing Train, the setting has a general country and western theme, with cowboys, a frontier town, a farm, various animals... and a castle with a fairy-tale princess and her enchanted frog prince. Yet just like all the other characters, the last two also sing classic American folk songs. | |

Only Smart People May Pass: A very mild version occurs in Marvelous Musical Mansion—Doorknocker the sentient doorknocker insists that the only people who can enter the house are those who solve his riddles.

Spanner in the Works: In Marvelous Musical Mansion, Meter Mouse awakens in the middle of the night to sound his hourly gong and discovers it missing, then hears someone running around inside the drawing room. He shouts at the noise, causing the thief to tumble from the stairs and fail in their attempt to steal something from the Rhythm Machine; this interference provides the humans the clues they need to solve the crime the next day. Similarly, in the same movie, Cadenza playfully bats at a small object when the kids find themselves stumped by the mystery at hand. It's Andy Bandy's missing shoe, which proves to be the clue that ties everything together. | |

Formula-Breaking Episode | |
| Wee Sing / int_670db7d7 | comment |
Formula-Breaking Episode: King Cole's Party was the only Wee Sing video to be different from the other videos for a few reasons: It was shot on film instead of videotape. It was released two years after Wee Sing Together. Videos succeeding that would get released once per year. It is the only video (until Wee Singdom) to not be composed by Cal Scott; King Cole's Party was composed by Bill Scream. The whole plot is a dream by Jack with only the magical elements happening in the dream. Other videos are either blatant with the magical elements happening in real life or it's left ambiguous if the events actually happened or were just the imaginations of the kids. | |

Security Blanket: In King Cole's Party, Jack loves his yellow blanket and has always refused to give it up, but decides to give it as a present to King Cole. At the party he has second thoughts because the blanket it so plain and of little value, but to his surprise, the king is deeply touched by the gift, because it reminds him of the blanket he once had as a little boy. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Wee Sing / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Some of the characters in Marvelous Musical Mansion are named after musical terminology appropriate to their characterization: Rubato means "played freely and loosely," and Uncle Rubato has the power to levitate, freeing himself from gravity's pull. The Tap-A-Capella Singers are all named for different indicators of tempo and volume: Ally Allegro (quickly), Lawrence Largo (slowly), Flo Fortissimo (very loudly), Peter Pianissimo (very softly). The cheerful rodent who chimes the hour in the grandfather clock is Meter Mouse. Meter is the tempo at which a piece is played—in other words, both musical meter and Meter Mouse mark the time. | |

The Ageless | |
| Wee Sing / int_796fa10c | comment |
The Ageless: The end of Grandpa's Magical Toys implies that the toys in the playroom are immortal. Punchinello remarks that "he's been around a long time," and first helped Peter's grandfather—a man in his seventies—when he was Peter's age. Justified since they're toys. | |

Large Ham | |
| Wee Sing / int_823c6e3e | comment |
Large Ham: Little Bunny Foo Foo in Big Rock Candy Mountains. His rendition of "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen" after he's been turned into a goon is so melodramatic that Lisa and the Snoodledoodles roll their eyes in Aside Glances. When he returns in Wee Singdom, he breaks into an equally distraught rendition of the same song just because he forgets his lines in a stage performance. | |

Sliding Scale of Anthropomorphism | |
| Wee Sing / int_91183950 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Anthropomorphism: Largely of the Animate Inanimate Object model. It's most apparent in Marvelous Musical Mansion: virtually everything in the titular house is alive, but the degree of its "humanity" is heavily dependent on how human it looks. The music boxes (or to be technical, the figures on the music boxes), photos, and suits of armor look the most human-like and are all capable of movement and speech; the doorknocker and hat rack are human-object hybrids who can talk, but don't move much; and the grand piano, stairs, and dining room chairs lack all human features, have virtually no mobility (the piano can play itself and the chairs can lean backward, but that's about it), and don't speak at all except for playing a few notes. | |

A Weighty Aesop: The emphasis is on health, not weight, but The Big Rock Candy Mountains still features a warning about junk food when the Fat Comic Relief Snoodledoodles eat too much candy and get stomachaches. This is despite the fact that the setting is a land made mostly of candy. The other characters enjoy a picnic of healthy foods and then have only a little candy for dessert. | |

Random Events Plot: Most of the films involve a group of children interacting with various other characters for one scene each, often with a Grand Finale when everyone reunites for a final Crowd Song. The plot-heavier ones, like Marvelous Musical Mansion and Best Christmas Ever, downplay the trope by having a central theme justifying the visits. | |

Adults Are Useless: In Marvelous Musical Mansion, Auntie Annabella ends up locked outside when she's unable to come up with the answer to Doorknocker's riddle (though she does learn that no one entered or left the house through the front door, which proves that someone inside the mansion committed the crime), while Uncle Rubato solely investigates the dining room—which is the one place where nothing suspicious happened. It falls to the kids to find all of the clues and actually solve the crime. | |

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: The adults sometimes have this reaction because they're not privy to what happens in their kids' worlds. In Big Rock Candy Mountain, Lisa's mom has this reaction. Subverted by Grandpa in Grandpa's Magical Toys; since Punchinello helped Peter's grandfather when he was a child; he knows the toys are alive and figures out by the presence of gold dust from the music box that Peter, David and Sarah visited them. Also subverted by the parents in The Best Christmas Ever, who go with the kids to Santa's workshop, and by Uncle Rubato and Aunty Annabella in Marvelous Musical Mansion, who openly use a magical hand gesture to activate his music boxes. | |

Fair-Play Whodunnit: The second part of Marvelous Musical Mansion becomes this type of mystery when various musical items go missing. The fact that Andy Bandy Man is accidentally left awake after he performs and is clearly shown envying the other music boxes makes it easy for kid viewers to solve the mystery along with the characters. There's also a liberal amount of clues sprinkled throughout the film, including Andy being the only person not missing something he needs for his performances (although he is missing his shoe), a sentient piano playing his theme when Alex asks if it knows anything, and the musical staircase playing the notes AD-BD, or ANDY BANDY, over and over. | |

Bewitched Amphibians | |
| Wee Sing / int_eaa2b8f8 | comment |
In The Wee Sing Train, the setting has a general country and western theme, with cowboys, a frontier town, a farm, various animals... and a castle with a fairy-tale princess and her enchanted frog prince. Yet just like all the other characters, the last two also sing classic American folk songs. | |

Easily Forgiven | |
| Wee Sing / int_f36c4f98 | comment |
Easily Forgiven: Little Bunny Foo Foo in Big Rock Candy Mountains is quickly forgiven for bopping the Meecy Mice on the head once he explains why he did it and apologizes, as is Andy Bandy Man for stealing in Marvelous Musical Mansion. Of course in Bunny Foo Foo's case, he had already been punished enough by being turned into a goon. | |

| Wee Sing / int_f6dc47f7 | comment |
Ambiguously Related: It's never stated if Benji from "Marvelous Musical Mansion" was adopted, Alex's step sibling or blood related brother. Unlike Susie in "The Best Christmas Ever!" where the viewers can tell she's adopted as everyone in her family is Caucasian, we only see their father and the mother is never shown. | |

Rhymes on a Dime | |
| Wee Sing / int_fb17af62 | comment |
Rhymes on a Dime: As you might expect from a children's video series based on nursery rhymes, this is a very popular trope. The Spurdlegurgles of Sillyville speak exclusively in rhymes; it also doubles as Finishing Each Other's Sentences, as there are four of them, and they simply pass the rhyme from one to the next. The stuffed animals of Grandpa's Magical Toys largely speak in rap. Doorknocker in Marvelous Musical Mansion both only talks in verse and gives rhyming riddles to anyone who tries to enter the house. | |
