Nick Jr. Baby Curious Buddies - Helping at Home

Rating:
Summary: pleasant surprise - great video
Review: My 13 month old son is only allowed to watch a select few dvd's that we rotate for him as we like them to be somewhat educational but still entertaining for him. I was a bit wary of the Nickelodeon Baby presents and thought it might be cheesy but this is one of the best videos for older babies I've seen.
These are not the spinny shiny objects to classical music videos like some of the Baby Einstein videos (though we love Baby MacDonald/Neighborhood Animals & Neptune) but instead features really cute puppets and very simple but extremely appropriate real life video lessons that clearly repeat and name the actions or objects they are trying to teach the baby (like can you help Cat find the APPLE? and slowly goes over three fruits with the puppet until YES he finds the apple!) And real life video of toddlers helping their parents or siblings around the house. The music is pretty cool too and as a former music biz exec. I am super picky about kids music. GREAT video - Have ordered the rest of the series as of now.
