Higglytown Heroes is a children's television series currently airing on the Playhouse Disney portion of the Disney Channel, or, on some cable networks, the Playhouse Disney channel. The theme song of the show, Here in Higglytown, is performed by They Might Be Giants.

The characters, who are modeled on Matryoshka nesting dolls, explore their city and the people in it. Along the way, they meet "Higglytown heroes", the people in their community who make it a better place. The main human characters include Eubie, Wayne, Twinkle, and Kip; Fran, who is almost always with them, is a red squirrel. Pizza guy also appears in almost every episode. Higglytown heroes have ranged from firefighters to dentists to snow plow operators, whose voice actors are frequently guest celebrities. The series encourages involvement in the community, and means to inspire children to consider the importance of individuals who contribute to the world and make it better place.

The characters introduce the featured Higglytown community member through song, normally requiring help from 'someone special' and collectively singing the verse:

• Wayne:"Someone special, who could it be?"
• Twinkle:"This job's too big for you and me."
• Fran:"We need some help!"
• Kip:"But never fear-o...."
• Eubie:"It looks like a job.......for a Higglytown Hero!"

(enter the hero that sings the introduction:)

• "I'm a Higglytown Hero, brave and true,
• I help the town with the things I do
• So work real hard, and you will see
• That you can be a hero, just like me!
• A hero just like me!"

(bulk of song is then sung, tailored specifically to the profession of the character or 'hero', ending in:)

• "I'm a Higglytown Hero, bold and good,
• I help my friends just like I should"

(characters now all join in together)

• "So we'll work real hard, that's what we'll do....
• So we can be a hero,
• Just like you!
• A hero just like you!" (cue fireworks)

There are heroes all around us.
