Rating: - Perfect for school commute!
For those of us commuting to school, these DVDs are perfect. No more extraordinarily loud purple dinosaurs screaming out of my tiny DVD player. My 3 and 1 year olds are completely absorbed by these classic stories, gently and carefully told, without overstimulating cartoons. An added bonus is that I no longer feel guilty about listening to my news stations as they watch these enduring tales. Everyone wins on our long commute to preschool!
Rating: - Best kind of TV Time for tots!
