Description

The story revolves around Kristy who organizes a parade for all the babies in her neighborhood. She encounters challenges and learns the value of teamwork, friendship, and creative problem-solving. The hit series is back, to charm and inspire another generation of baby-sitters! The Baby-sitters just love little babies. So of course Kristy has the great idea of entering a float in the Stoneybrook Baby Parade. All the girls have to do is round up a bunch of adorable babies like Squirt and Emily Michelle, dress them in costumes, and plop them on a float. Easy, right? Wrong. The float looks like a big orange blob, the costumes are hideous, and the babies won't stop crying! S. O. S.--the Baby-sitters' float is about to sink!
