in you go
I have come across the phrase "in you go" watching this episode (12:15):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9B0SdH5dzGE
I think that it can mean something like 'it is time for you to go into...' but not sure.
And which grammar rule is used for this phrase?
Thank you in advance.

"In you go" is used as an informal, polite request for someone to enter something (walk through a door, enter a house, etc.), especially when the person did not enter at the appropriate time. It is often used with children, and sometimes simply to narrate what is happening for infants/toddlers.
For example:
1. A father says to his small child: "let's get in the car."
2. The child is distracted by something on the ground, so the father walks over and guides the child into the car. As he does this, he says "in you go."

It's a polite request (or order) Actually, it's a little bit patronising, you would probably use it mostly with children.
It's a pretty idiomatic phrase, so there is no 'rule' as such. There are a few similar expressions:, you could say:
Out you go
Up you go
Down you go.
Through you go.
____
You could also say "in I go" / "in he goes" etc. This means "i'm going in" / "He's going in" etc
