takes place in the world of Nara,
a land of happiness, laughter and friendship
that’s home to the Piplings.
The four Piplings are happy, loving and caring creatures that are inquisitive and playful: Yojojo is full of fun, he’s mischievous and loves surprises. Lau Lau is creative and thrives when she’s dancing or painting. Nok Tok is practical and inventive, he’s happiest when he’s making things. De Li is thoughtful, caring and loves gardening.
When Piplings experience pure happiness they achieve Buloo and rise gently into the air.
The Piplings practice Yogo, a gentle form of exercise which is similar to yoga. The movements are often inspired by things that the Piplings see in Nara like birds, trees and narabugs.
The ‘Call to Yogo’ happens when the sunlight shines on the coloured crystals of the ancient Yogo machine; it starts to turn and makes a beautiful sound. When Piplings hear this sound they stop what they’re doing and meet in front of the Yogo machine. Lau Lau, De Li, Nok Tok and Yojojo do four Yogo poses at the beginning of each programme and later when the cheebies (children) come to Nara, the Piplings and cheebies repeate the poses together.
Waybuloo is unique in its exploration of emotions and relationships, taking us on a journey through stories of co-operation, friendship and enjoyment.
You can try some of the Yogo poses by downloading the Yogo activity sheet.
