Rating: Summary: Only this DVD will get my daughters attention!! Review: I have bought every single elmo video, barney video, teletubbies and etc... but this Kids Favorite Songs II was only one that caught her attention. It sings nursery rhymes and lullabies that I have been singing to her since she was born, so the songs are familiar to her and elmo actually interviews real children like herself. My daughter is 9 months old and she loves this video more than anything in the world. She won't even stop to look at me when I call her name sometimes (that's how much she's so interested watching these other children like herself on tv singing her favorite familiar songs). I highly recommend this video because it helps me everyday with settling her down.
Rating: Summary: Kids Favorite Songs 2 Review: I purchased this video because my 5 mos. old daughter absolutely loves Elmo and laughs and smiles when she sees his face, so we were a bit dissapointed that he wasn't in every frame. She doesn't seem that interested in the other characters yet. Great songs but we wanted more Elmo. We really enjoyed Best of Elmo since it's all about him.
Rating: Summary: Not as good as the first one Review: I was very disapppointed with this DVD. We loved the first Kid's Favorite Songs so we were really looking forward to the second one. They spent too much time interviewing little kids and too little time actually singing the songs. Don't waste your money on this one. I highly recommend Kids Favorite Songs (1), The Best of Elmo, and Do the Alphabet.
Rating: Summary: The best Sesame Street video yet! Review: My 10 month old son cannot get enough of this video! The video is almost continuous music, alternating muppets with real kids singing. The kids are all really cute and this is one video I can watch over and over with my son and not get tired of it. I highly recommend this video, especially if your child is too young for most cartoons and videos to hold his attention. I am ordering the "Kids Favorite Videos #1", and hoping it will be as good as this one.
Rating: Summary: Savannah's new favorite! Review: My 12 month old daughter absolutely loves Elmo. The Best of Elmo was her favorite from about 9 months, but now Kid's Favorite Songs 2 has knocked it out of the top spot. I have to admit the first couple of times she watched it she got a little bored so I didn't know how it would go over ultimately. Then she warmed up to it about the 3rd time we watched it and has become the one that makes her smile, laugh, and point (so cute!) the most. She loves listening to and watching the kids Elmo interviews about the songs and of course all the great parts with Elmo. Wheels on the Bus which is on this video has been her favorite song from about 3 months when I would change her diaper and run through the songs and actions to keep her entertained. It's a hit at our house.
Rating: Summary: GREAT CHOICE!!! Review: My 13 onth old loves the Wiggles, but I bought this on a whim not quite sure if she would like it, she loved it!!! I catch her trying to sing with the songs, and she will literally sit on her little bed and watch this, plenty of songs, and very entertaining for a little one with other little kids singing in the dvd. Great buy!!!

Rating: Summary: Go buy this video TODAY!!! Review: My 17 month old daughter ADORES this video. Not only does my little one love to dance around and sing to the video but this video has taught her how to do the movements for "Itsy Bitsy Spider", "The Wheels on the Bus", "If you're happy and you know it..." and "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star". Also, she can now decipher up from down (because of the song "The Brave ole' Captiain Brown") I am a Kindergarten teacher and this video truely gives toddlers a good foundation to the basics of education. Of course nothing can replace the value of a parent reading to their child, but this video is a MUST HAVE for all parents of toddlers!
Rating: Summary: My son's favorite Seasame Street Video Review: My 18 month old absolutely ADORES this video and it is by far his favorite! He loves watching the kids talk - but loves all the music, skits, and singing. His favorite thing to do is call out "NO! Meatball!" As an adult viewer of this video, a couple of the kids become almost too annoyingly painful to watch...."Jack and Jill were probably English", "Ants don't have thumbs", and then the little boy on the "If your happy and you know it..." bit burdens viewers with a completely awful display of over acting. Most importantly though, it encourages my son to verbalize new words, and with him in the running as Elmo's biggest fan - it is a great great DVD.
Rating: Summary: Wanted to hate it but we love it Review: My 19 month old son absolutely adores this video. I think what he likes about it are the children talking in language that is easy for him to understand...and of course, since he loves Elmo, he loves the fact that Elmo is his guide throughout the whole thing.
Yes, there are some annoying moments...especially the precocious little one who says about Jack and Jill "they were probably British" and the same little girl who interrupts "Ants go Marching" by reminding us that "ants don't have thumbs".
But all in all, it's fun time for all.
