Summary: Fantastic
Review:
All of the DVD's in the series 1,2,3 are outstanding, educational,colorful and stimulating. Hi-5 is fantastic, their upbeat tunes make you want to get up and dance with your children. It is by far the "BETTER" of the children's musical groups to date. I strongly recommend these DVD's. The children will learn, colors, shapes, friendship, caring, concern, teamwork, sharing.. I can go on and on. Just order the DVD's you wont be disappointed.

Hi-5! I am so excited that merchandise is finally available for purchase!! The American Hi-5 is both of my son's favorite show on TV and on TLC. We never miss out any of its show. Hi-5 is a highly popular kid's show in Australia with 5 other young adults. They wanted to bring Hi-5 to North American so they formed the American Hi-5 which include Curtis, who is an accomplished actor on the stage, performing in the Broadway musical "Rent", Kimmee who has been on stage in "Miss Saigon" and in "Mama Mia", Karla, Jenn, and Shaun, who's mother is a well known Choreographer. Hi-5 caters to wide range of younger kids focusing on their cognitive skills and learning flares. The five have refreshing ideas for kids as they action sing the songs emphasizing on different areas of intelligence and bringing in awareness to the kid's world with: *Language fun of stories, rhymes and games songs,
*Logical thinking and mathematical puzzles of shapes, mazes, patterns,
*Music fun with beat,rythym and melody,
*Body moves such as jumping, hopping and the like,
*Exploring emotional areas through stories to enhance social skills etc. Educational based songs Hi-5 are lively singing sensation that you fall in love with all of the Fabulous Five as they not only have great voices but also expressions to match with. Shaun is lovable and so is Curtis especially some of the skits that he does do which includes and is not limited to Captain Puffy Pants, Jenn is fun and so is her friend Chats (short for Chatterbox), Kimmee and her friend Jup Jup are alot of fun, and Karla is wonderful in her make-believe world! Some of the songs are Ready or not (a song about Hide-and-seek), Robot #1, Five senses (touch, hearing, taste, smell and seeing), and So Many Animals are all great numbers for kids. It's merrier days again for adults who love kiddie music fun. Jump n Jive with the happy ole days and make the kids merrier floating them free to grow up - free from the stress and burden of education for a change, free from the big bad world as they sing and dance with these 5 young people. Not only do they put on a great show on T.V. but they show the same energy in concert, if anyone was lucky enough to catch them while they were on tour this past Spring. They genuinely care about kids, their fans, and their fans parent's!!

Summary: Great show for toddlers to teens!
Review: Hi-5 is an educational and fun show for kids from 2 to 12 years old. It is filled with high energy, creative songs and dances that get kids moving and grooving. In addition, there are fun skits that involve lots of imagination and creativity. You will find that your kids are learning and they don't even know it. The five cast members, Shaun, Curtis, Kimee, Karla and Jenn are all in their 20s and are great role models for your kids to look up to. They dress in cool, funky outfits that your child will love and that you feel is appropriate for your child to watch (as opposed to some of the other shows out there). They are multi-cultural and multi-talented. We tape the shows and watch Hi-5 all day long. We can't wait for the DVDs to be released!!!

Summary: Best new children's show!
Review: Hi-5 is fresh, education and fun--even for the parents! This is one show where mom and dad will actually enjoy sitting with the kids and watching it! :) Color Craze is a unique way of incorporating colors into math, problem solving, word recognition, shapes and exercise.
"I want to watch Hi-5!...with YOU!!" my son yells each morning.

Summary: Love the series, love the video
Review: Hi-5, which airs on the Discovery Channel (and TLC) has several different themes. Each week a new theme is introduced by a catchy song & dance that is played at the beginning and end of each episode. Different sketches throughout the episode cover simple math, music, rhythm, imagination, language development, etc.
Having said that, if you love the show, you'll love all three of the DVDs which contain three episodes of their respective theme. The "extras" aren't really great - a karaoke singalong one with lyrics and the other with only music and words on the bottom of the screen. I'd have liked some more background on the making of the show or a little extra addition to the episode. (That's why it receives a 4 and not a 5).

Summary: Adults love it, too.
Review: My husband and I took our two sons, ages 1 and 3 to the local mall to see Hi-5 perform after having watched them on tv every day for months. They were fantastic. They gave out copies of their promo DVD and it is wonderful, just like the show. I can't wait to get the new DVDs.
This is one "kids" show that features Broadway-caliber performers singing songs that will stick with you in a way that is not annoying or silly like most kids' songs.

Summary: Great music, fun, and teaches kids too
Review: My three year old and two year old both love this video. I find myself singing along and actually feel happy about it...unlike some of the other kids tunes I catch playing in my head. There is a great energy with the cast. I just ordered the other two DVDs by Hi-5 and I'm confident my girls will love them.

Summary: Hi-5, Vol 1 - Color Craze
Review: This DVD is the best! It's fun to learn with Hi-5. My daughter is 3 and she just loves them! No other characters have gotten her off the couch till Hi-5. The video motivates them to get up and exercise and jump around while they are also teaching them about feelings, seasons and colors. We have all three volumes - color craze, music time and game time and she loves them all!

Summary: Great for all ages!
Review: This is one of the few shows that gets both my kids (ages 5 and 1/2 and 3) up and singing and dancing together. We reenact the dances often during playtime and sing the songs throughout the day. My only complaint is that since this video has 3 actual episodes, you get to hear the "theme song" twice for each episode, that's 6 (!!!!) times in one video! This may drive my husband and I batty, but the kids love the repetition and have memorized all of the lyrics and dance moves. I highly recommend this video!
