[[File:BabesInToyland1.jpg|frame|Sheet music from the 1903 operetta]]
'''''Babes in Toyland''''' began as a 1903 operetta by popular American composer Victor Herbert in which [[Fairy Tale]] and [[Mother Goose]] characters acted out a fairly standard Babes-In-The-Wood plot in [[Living Toys|Toyland]], where [[Evil Uncle]] Barnaby has attempted to do away with his niece and nephew Jane and Alan -- and incidentally to steal Alan's lady love, Contrary Mary. The operetta featured some of Herbert's most famous musical pieces, such as "Castle In Spain," "Go To Sleep, Slumber Deep," "I Can't Do The Sum," the "March of the Toys," and "Toyland."

'''Barnaby''': ''No,'' '''''steal them!''''' }}
* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: Age reversed in the 1997 animated adaption with Jack. Despite being the younger sibling, Jack is very protective of his older sister who is too nice and sweet to defend herself. He sneakily grabs her toy from their [[Evil Uncle]], Barnaby, helps her escape Barnaby's house, and comforts her as best as he can when they're sent to the Goblin Forest. He also punches out a goblin that goes after him and his sister. He may be younger but he's a force to be reckoned with when his sister is in trouble.
* [[Big No]]: Bill Francouer's version gives one to Barnaby and his henchmen shortly after their defeat sequence.
* [[Blooper]]: In the Disney version; an extra accidentally closes her nightgown into the door as she walks into her house.
