Summary: This is a music video, not an Elmo video
Review: If you are buying this video for your little Elmo fan, think again. Elmo hardly appears at all; it's mostly popular groups singing songs with a few muppets thrown in. I think it's a good video, but it's not really at my 12-month-old son's level. He wants non-stop Elmo action, not people singing. This might be better for the 4-6 year old crowd.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: My daughter loves the songs...
Review: I'm glad I got dvd. I skip straight to her favorite parts. It doesn't have a whole lot of muppets in it, but she loves music... I think that is the only thing that saved it. A very misleading title.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Family "Elmo" Movie
Review: My two-year old has had this movie for about 6 months and she still can't get enough of it. Also, it isn't as boring or dull so that mom can tolerate watching it with her without getting bored.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A cute video, but Elmo doesn't appear much!
Review: I can agree with the other reviews: this video, which is titled to be an Elmo one, does NOT have much Elmo in it. This left my daughter asking for the furry red monster throughout the video. Elmo makes cameo appearances, popping in here and there for a minute or two. The rest of the video is full of fun songs (we love the Mighty Mighty Bosstones one) but not enough character interaction. A little disappointing, but older kids and adults will really appreciate the songs and guest appearances.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Kids video!!!!
Review: I have to disagree with the reviewer who says this video isn't good for little kids. My daughter LOVES this video and has since she got it for her first birthday. She wants to watch it over and over. Her 4 year old cousin wants to watch it whenever he comes to visit.

It's fun enough that you don't mind watching it over and over again. John Stewart and David Alan Grier are hilarious and the music is great. The only part that I don't particularly care for is Rosie O'Donnell, but that's just because I don't like her.

Buy it for your kids. You won't be disappointed

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Buy this if your kids love music!!!!
Review: My one year old is addicted to Elmo. We'll have to find her a 12-step program because my 4 year old wants to watch other things. But the TWO of them will gladly watch this and DANCE, DANCE, DANCE. I'm glad that I was not swayed by the reviews that said the kids would not like this DVD because my kids love it. Probably because they love all kinds of music. Because my daughter loves Elmo, the one song "I want a monster to be my friend" is just perfect!!! We sing it all the time.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: not another song!!
Review: These were the words I heard every few minutes while watching this with my cousin and daughter. It is basically a collection of music videos with elmo scattered in between. The music videos were not that fun for the kids as the muppets involvement in them was very small. I don't recommend this video for elmo fans.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not good
Review: This video doesn't entertain or captivate my children like the other Elmo videos we love(Best of Elmo, Wild West, and Adv. in Grounchland). Don't waste your money on this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An outstanding DVD with lasting appeal for kids!
Review: I see a lot of ambivalence about this DVD, and I would like to put in my two cents in support of it. My two-year-old likes it a lot, and I think the songs and storyline are rich enough to hold his interest into the early elementary years. I consider it a great value for that reason.

It is essentially a collection of kid-friendly music "videos" presented in the context of an accompanying storyline. Don't expect to see Elmo in every song, but he is central to the storyline and appears frequently between songs.

Parents will find this entertaining. The storyline is funny, the songs are enjoyable for all, and the production values are outstanding.

I confess, at first I feared my son would be bored by it because the storyline and music are a little more sophisticated than the usual singsong children's fare. But kids thrive on repetition, and after just a few viewings, he became familiar with the music. Now he asks for this DVD frequently, and I am always happy to oblige.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Music with Elmo/Sesame Street as an afterthought
Review: After owning/renting numerous Elmo and Sesame Street DVDs, this seemed to be among the more disappointing because:

- Elmo barely appears in this video
- The artists play/sing with little interaction with the characters.
- Very few songs were catchy and kept my son's attention
- Who said that Rosie O'Donnell could sing???

This title sounds like a fun video...but it's not.
