Foofa is one of the main characters in Yo Gabba Gabba!

Description

Foofa is the 2nd member of DJ Lance's Gabba friends where "She's pink and happy!" She is the first female to be introduced in the show alongside Toodee. Like most of the characters besides Muno, Foofa doesn't have any parents in the show but has a big brother named Fooful. Foofa lives the appropriately named Foofa Land, a spring-flower themed realm, in between Muno Land and Brobee Land. She is voiced in the show by Emma Penrose.

Foofa is sweet, kind-hearted, giggly, caring, happy, and super friendly and is not afraid to introduce herself to new friends. She can be a bit sensitive around animals and feels like she is going to quit but never stops giving up. Even she likes to watch, feed, and pet the animals in Gabba Land; cute baby animals are her favorite. Foofa also loves anything cute and cuddly, even when she dreams about unicorns. She adores her land with all of the types of flowers sprinkled throughout, so she takes her time take care of them and smell the land's beauty. She is also creative with her painting skills and seems to be a girly-girl for most of the show. She can even get her hands dirty (literally) when she is planting in her land. Foofa can also calm down animals or her friends when they get scared, even when she has to comfort Muno on more than one occasion, even show some symbol of love to them too. She loves unicorns, rainbows, and flowers. Her hobbies are watering, whistling, playing her tambourine in the Gabba Band, and riding her bike. She has a brother named Fooful, a blue-aquamarine Australian surfer.
