Rating: Summary: Great video with catchy tunes. Review: My 21 month daughter absoulutely loves this video. She asks to watch it over and over again. I wake up singing these songs in my head! It is a good educational tool as well. My daughter has learned the parts of her face, the difference between heavy and light and how to share. I only rated it 4 stars because it is too short, the 30 minutes goes by much too fast.
Rating: Summary: A wonderful tape for children and adults Review: Like all the best Sesame Street clips, this tape has something for both kids and their parents to enjoy. It never talks down to kids, it simply entertains and informs them. Our baby daughter turns to the TV whenever this tape starts and rarely looks away. I recommend this fun and educational tape to any parent.
Rating: Summary: For a lot of Elmo, this is one to own Review: My 17 month old loves Elmo and not much more on TV keeps her attention. This video has is all-music, dancing and educational spoofs as well. Needless to say, when I need an extra "toddler free" 30 minutes, this tape is the one we both reach for.
Rating: Summary: You'll be singing along with elmo too! Review: This is one of the cleverest children's videos I've ever seen. My 2 year old is always asking for it and laughs at many of the scenes. The dancing and the motions of the muppets are stunning. You'll find yourself singing these songs to yourself at work, while doing housework, anywhere.
Rating: Summary: Even I like it! Review: This movie is fun for not only my son but I find myself singing along with all the songs. It skips around to various things which keeps kids interested. Lots of singing and laughing!
Rating: Summary: My 1.5 Yr. old will watch the whole video! Review: The various different pictures Elmo has drawn all have little stories and songs. The songs are cute and catchy! Especially the picture Elmo drew about the Number 5! Parents, get ready to have a laugh with your child over this one! There are guest appearences by Julia Roberts and Whoopi Goldberg as well.
Rating: Summary: Semame Street OWES TAXPAYERS Review: Why make the company behind Sesame Street wealthier than it is already? After all, taxpayers are FORCED to pay for the drivel to be broadcast on PBS to the tune of millions.The people behind Sesame Street should pay for the right to broadcast through PBS. Don't buy this or any of their products.
Rating: Summary: What!?! Review: Yeah, we pay may pay taxes to put Sesame Street on, but the show itself is free. We don't pay for PBS like cable. Our libaries. hospitals, and cops get our tax money too, are you going to boycott them as well? This is a good video. My triplets go NUTS over Elmo. I, for one, try to be out of earshot when the videos on (I can't stand Elmos voice!!!) A good flick!
Rating: Summary: Family Hit since 1999! Review: I bought the VHS version when I had my first child in 1999. He absolutely loved it and we sang and danced to it over and over again. I recently pulled the video back out for my 18 month old twins and they love it as much as "big brother" did. They go to the TV and ask for "Belbo". We have played this video so much over the years it is finally starting to wear out. Since I can't be without "Belbo", I am currently ordering the DVD version. ( We will all love not having to wait for "Belbo" to rewind!)
Rating: Summary: Just OK Review: While the segments are cute and touch on great topics like accepting people who are different, I have 2 complaints about this DVD:
1. The run time. 30 minutes? Please. No DVD should be 30 minutes, especially when Sesame Street has such a large catalog to choose from. They could easily make these longer, but they want to make you buy more DVDs.
2. Since this is a "Best Of" video, it relies heavily on celebrity guest appearances by people such as Julia Roberts and Whoopi Goldberg. One problem - little kids don't know who the celebrities are, so they're not impressed. The "Best" segments should be the ones that are the most fun and imaginative, not the ones where Elmo just sits there talking to someone that a kid could care less about.
