Basic Info

• First recorded: Between early 1990 and April 1992
• Creator: N/A
• Owner: Sound Ideas (1992-present)
• Origin: United States and Canada
• Year debut: March 25, 1993
• First heard: Stolen Babies (an award-winning TV movie of 1993)
• Area used: Worldwide (especially in the United States and Canada)

This sound effect was first recorded between early 1990 and April 1992 because The General Series 6000 Sound Effects Library was in the making at that time. It was made by either a baby or an older child.

So far, first debuting in the 1993 award-winning TV movie "Stolen Babies" on March 25, 1993, it's typically referred to as the "Baby Kate Cry", due to it frequently being used for, and commonly associated with, the character Baby Kate Read on Arthur.

The Series 6000 version of this crybaby sound is more popular than the Dimension version, so it has been used in more than a thousand pieces of media, especially Arthur.
