The theme song for Muppet Babies details how the power of make-believe is empowering.
An extended verse in which the babies introduce their interests was originally included, but was usually cut in the 1989-1990 intro and US syndication, but the opening uncut could be seen in the UK and other foreign markets.
A version of the theme without the lead vocals was also originally used for the end credits in the 1984-1985 episodes of the show. Starting with the second season, an instrumental version of the Muppet Babies and Monsters theme (itself a variation of the Muppet Babies theme) was used for the credits.
The theme was performed in Jim Henson Presents: Muppet Babies Live.
Muppet Babies (2018)[]
An updated version of the song serves as the theme song for the 2018 version of the series, as performed by Renée Elise Goldsberry.
Disney Junior Music[]
A slow-paced, instrumental variety of the reboot version of the song, arranged by Rob Cantor, is featured in a Disney Junior Music: Lullabies video starring the rebooted Muppet Babies.
