The Backyardigans's song "Almost Everything Is Boinga" is about The Backyardigans meeting a group of aliens from a planet called Martian Land. The aliens, called Boingas, have a unique language where almost everything is referred to as "boinga". The Backyardigans are fascinated by this and they learn many interesting facts about the Boingas culture.
The song begins with Austin saying "Boinga!" in excitement, not understanding what it means. Mother Boinga explains that the words are different in Martian Land. Uniqua then asks if they call their hands "boinga" and Austin asks if they use pots and pans. Mother Boinga confirms these assumptions and tells the Backyardigans that in Martian Land, they call everything "boinga". They even wear "boinga" on their heads instead of hats, and they sleep on "boinga" instead of beds.
The Backyardigans are surprised by all of this, but they still enjoy learning about the Boinga culture. As they sing throughout the song, they realize that "boinga" means a lot of things, and they join in on singing the "boinga" song with Mother Boinga.
Overall, "Almost Everything Is Boinga" teaches children to be curious about other cultures and languages. It promotes an open-mindedness towards differences and encourages people to explore their surroundings even if it feels strange or uncomfortable.
