Rating: Summary: My Daughter Likes This Video Second Best! Review: I am happy with my 13 month old daughter's reaction to this tape. It keeps her watching for almost the entire show. I rate it right hehind "Singing Babies" videos, which feature real babies singing the nursery rhymes. A fellow parent review had turned me on to "Singing Babies." Their videos captivate my daughter from start to finish. So, I reserve 5 stars for their products, which is why I give "Elmo's World" only 4 stars.
Rating: Summary: Too anitclimatic for young children, Barney is better. Review: I bought this for my 18 month old who loves Barney, she had little interest in Elmo, Babies, Dogs and more. There is little singing and dancing and that is what she prefers. Barney changes pace from dancing to lesson teaching, it's much better for young children. Good luck.

Rating: Summary: Poor compared to others available Review: I bought this tape for my daughter based on the positive reviews I saw here on Amazon.com. I was disappointed. The tape is poorly produced, unimaginative, loud and annoying. Listening to Elmo's incessant, unintelligible speech is slightly worse than hearing fingernails scrape a chalkboard. The action is superimposed over static backgrounds, which looks very cheaply and hastily done.My child will sit through an entire Baby Einstein tape completely enthralled, but this one couldn't hold her attention for more than 5 minutes. Spend your money on any of the wonderful Baby Einstein tapes or Veggie Tales tapes instead.
Rating: Summary: For toddlers with short attention spans Review: I bought this video for my oldest daughter (now 4) when she was about 18 months. We watched it together over and over and over. Even though she does not watch it as often, I can still sing the songs and recite the dialogue. It's educational, entertaining and great for kids especially those who love animals. I highly recommend it even for kids who don't watch Sesame Street because this segment in particular is very targeted to toddlers, even those with VEEEERRRRYYYY short attention spans.
Rating: Summary: My baby loves it! Review: I bought this video on a whim when my baby was just a couple months old. She saw it first when she was about six months and loved the Babies! At 10 months she was transfixed whenever I put the tape in and now at 12 months she giggles like crazy at parts. She even hands me the remote when she wants to watch her Elmo tape. I hate to push TV on kids so I don't let her watch it much but it's great when you just need to do something quickly. A tornado could blow through our house and I don't think her eyes would move from the TV as long as Elmo was playing!
Rating: Summary: Great DVD!!!! Review: I was looking for an Elmo DVD so that when I take her to the live show she will know who Elmo is. When I saw this one I new she had to have it. Every child I know loves seeing other babies and dogs. This is by far her favorite DVD now. Thanks Elmo!!!!!
Rating: Summary: Elmo's World = Quiet Time Review: If we ever need to settle down our rowdy toddler, this is the DVD to do it (as well as any of the Elmo's World DVDs). The repiticious Elmo routine settles our savage beast. She'll still play with her toys and will walk away from time to time, but she does it quietly and always comes running back when the kazoo starts playing. A+

Rating: Summary: Irritating Review: My 15 mos old granddaughter has this video. She likes it, but BOY is irritating for anyone else in the room. I can't understand much of what Elmo says and after awhile that voice gets on my nerves. There are much better videos out there. May I recommend some of the Veggie Tales.
