Hey all... My DD got 2 "Magic, Faraway Tree" videos for her birthday. She loves them, and she asks to watch them over and over. I realize that is typical toddler behaviour. I am looking to get her some more videos. We have a couple of Sesame Street videos that she likes. What videos do or did your toddler like to watch??? Currently, Monsters, Inc. Monsters, Inc.

I'm not sure if you can get the same kids videos in Australia as here, but I shall tell you which videos my kids loved. My DD's favourites we Teletubbies, but she grew out of that when she was under 3. Tot's TV Rosie & Jim DS's favourites were/a Brum Thomas the Tank Engine Bob the Builder They both love Maisy the Little Mouse, Budgie the Little Helicopter and Toy Story/Toy Story 2 HTH Marie |

I am looking to get her some more videos. We have a couple of Sesame Street videos that she likes. What videos do or did your toddler like to watch??? Our dau's was always: "My Little Pony" (She is 21 now.) Our son (5) loved the original: Jungle Book (we rented Jungle Book II, he loves that) Also Dragon Tales, although I've only been able to find one Dragon Tales video. Another gem that we found at a yard sale is: 'Toy Songs, Sing Along' From the back cover: "Introducing Sing-Along songs in exciting, 3-D animation! Featuring all-time favorites as "Old McDonald," "the ABC Song" and I'm a Little Teapot." it's entertaining and educational. From "Itsi Bitsi Spider" and "this Old Man" to "The Wheels on the Bus" and "Somewhere on the Planet," children will sing along, laugh and learn about caring for our planet and all living thing. Anyone who loved the 3-D animation in Toy Story will love Toy Songs!" copyright M3D Inc. (I think this is available in the U.K. according to the dust jacket) And of course, all of the Little Foot Video's. (Land Before Time series) And the "Magic School Bus" (local library usually has great selection) 'He' has way to-o-o many activities to watch video's all the time, but once years ago, he said the cutest thing when requesting to watch his 'Noddy Shop' tape; "I bet all my old friends missed me." I think the best part, and maybe most overlooked of watching video's is when we sit down with our children and watch it with them and then discuss it with them. The TV should not be a babysitter, rather (imo) a learning tool. I always do this with video's or TV. (sigh, time goes by too fast den. |

She likes Bob The Builder (as she says, "Buy the puter" lol), Wizard Of Oz (the original, not the second) and just about anything with fun music and dancing and silly sounds. Oddly enough, another favorite of hers is "Priscilla: Queen Of The Desert" She has a fascination with ABBA music because of it lol. -- LES! Daddie to Alegra Lee. May 25th 2003!

Jarrod just reminded me of another of Kris' favorites. The movie "The Little Rascals". She looks *just* like the girl that plays Darla. The weekend of the 4th (last weekend) she was swimming with Jarrods mom, and started quoting the letter that Alfalfa writes to Darla. She started saying: "Dear Darla, I hate your stinkin' guts, you make me vomit, you are the scum between my toes, love alfalfa" Well, Jarrod's mom has never seen the movie and nearly fell over until we told her what it was... Personally, I dislike her using the word "hate" but it was quite funny! -- LES! Daddie to Alegra Lee. May 25th 2003!

That's a great way to try them out for free, and rotate your selection. DS likes Thomas the Tank Engine, Sesame Street, and Winnie the Pooh, plus assorted random ones we've found at the library. Music videos are also good, like Raffi in concert, or the Wiggles. - Lynn |

I just got this from another group I'm on and thought I would pass it along. It's relevant and (imo) cute. (name, email address and subject body removed) "Hey, something nice just happened...., our not-quite-3-year-old told me the whole story from "Green Eggs and Ham". Mom bought her a story video last week that includes Green Eggs, and several other Dr Seuss stories, and a few days ago, her brother gave her his copy of the book. For 3 days now, she's been going over and over the book and the video - it's become her favorite story, outside of having to have Good Night, Moon every night. Now she's telling it to everyone she can get to hold still long enough, LOL....including the cat!" Come to think of this, our son has lot's of Dr. Seuss books (and the CD-ROM "ABC's" is great) but no video's. I haven't noticed any in our local library here. Maybe she is talking about a video that recently came out? We have a collection of talk and play books (45rpm) and he loves those (I think they are antiques by now, they were handed down.) Dennis. |
