The Huggles

The Huggles are small, furry creatures who have stories read to them by Baxter (usually about "Bamba the Barbarian"). They consist of Fluffy, Puffy (both performed by Pam Arciero) and Scruffy (performed by Kevin Clash). They also have a little sibling named Baby Huggle (performed by Pam Arciero) that appears later on. Baxter brought the Huggles to the asteroid after he found their eggs in space. As their intro song put it, Baxter '"brought 'em home to hatch 'em, and now they've here to stay..." Introduced a few years into the show's run, the extreme (some would say excessive) cuteness of these characters was an attempt to appeal to a younger demographic. They are always curious. Their catchphrase was "Hey, what's snappenin'?!"
