I'm Happy after buyingThis Pocoyo Dance Stephen Fry
We have a 3 1/2 year old that spends some time in our home. We catch the 10 minute episodes of Pocoyo on PBS on occasion, and he just loves them, but they only come on twice a day. I thought it would be fun to have a video for rainy or boring days in the house. We really enjoyed this dvd. The cartoon is quite cute, entertaining, and fun, even for adults. The stories are short, so they keep the kids' attention, and they always have a wonderful little moral (like sharing, working together, helping a friend, etc.). And, unlike some of the popular cartoons or shows, they're not annoying or tiresome for adults to watch. I have shown this show to several children, both boys and girls, and ages 6 months to 5 years, and they all enjoy this show. I purchased 4 Pocoyo dvds at once, and ended up giving two of them to a girlfriend who has a toddler and runs a child day care from her home, and she and her kids love them, as well! And again, they range in age from a few months old to almost kindergarten. She loves that, on a rainy or housebound day, it catches and keeps the kids' attention, they laugh, play along, and really enjoy the stories.
I didn't notice when I was considering purchasing this dvd, but there are several stories/skits on each dvd, which adds up to an hour (or more) per dvd. I wasn't certain, since the shows are only 10 minutes on tv, so that's why I purchased 4 dvds. But, since they are each so long and have so many shows on each one, that is why I gifted two of them to my friend. I knew her kids would enjoy them and she would make good use of them. Great purchase!

As soon as I put it on he is mesmerized. He likes seeing several episodes in a row instead of one at a time.
ReplyDeleteKids under 3 will be glued to the t.v. watching this. If you need some time to yourself this will work.
ReplyDeleteMy kids, especially my son love pocoyo. This is a great dvd at a very nice price. I highly recommend!
ReplyDeleteMy lil 2 year old dude loves it, it's full of music. He dances,and cracks up throughout the dvd. I'm looking forward to his next Pocoyo dvd.

ReplyDeletePocoyo isn't my thing, and I don't understand the draw, but my kids absolutely LOVE Pocoyo! Since they also both like music and like to dance, this seemed like an obvious choice to purchase, although they're such fans I don't think it would have mattered which Pocoyo movie I got. It's one of their favorites!
ReplyDeleteWe have been buying all the Pocoyo DVDs as my grandchildren AND husband LOVE them! This series is about a little boy dressed in blue and how he interacts with all his little friends (Elly, Pato, Lula, Sleepy bird and baby bird, Caterpillar, Fred -a Quatra-puss (we only see four legs not eight) and some funny little aliens. We love Stephen Fry's narration of the story as it delves into a number of life's lessons (i.e. sharing, overcoming fear, learning to apologize, "tidying-up" and just being a good friend, and many more).
ReplyDeleteOne of the episodes on this DVD is where Pocoyo uses Pato as an air guitar which is absolutely hysterical. And this would explain why my husband and adults also enjoying watching this series as the characters are so entertaining and just fun to watch! This series is so eye-catching and entertaining that this is pretty much all my grandson will ask to watch when coming over for a visit. He recites the words along with the characters and mimics expressions which are so endearing.
I say... BUY them all (DVDs)! I know I am and so anxious to get the rest of season 2! You can also catch episodes on kids television or do a search on YouTube. Pocoyo ROCKS!
I lucked onto this gift for my two grandsons. I saw it recommended on a mother's site, probably CafeMom. Since my grandsons are half Hispanic, I thought this was a way to bridge a gap. They have loved them and since there are SO many versions; DVDs, books, coloring books, puzzles, etc. it makes for lots of gifts and so easy for me since I don't get to see them often enough to know what they like.
