The Classic Nursery Rhymes Collection was originally released in 1982 and sold over a million copies. The Classic Nursery Rhymes Collection features 72 traditional nursery rhymes and includes classic tales such as "Old MacDonald", "Pop Goes the Weasel" and "Mary Had A Little Lamb". I'm all for introducing my sons to new things and was curious how they would react to a dvd that doesn't have flashy animations and other effects. My 6 year old son Duke is really open-minded and has a good understanding of "the old days". Especially since my Husband recently bought a VCR and the cashier at the thrift store called it "retro". We explained what retro was and he's gung-ho about buying VHS tapes.
Now for the review: Duke really paid attention to the dvd and sang along to the rhymes he did know. The transitions were seamless and didn't miss a beat. We both enjoyed the turning of the pop-up pages, illustrations, puppets and characters. I think this dvd is great for kids and a very handy tool to teach lessons about time, music and culture - subjects that we're huge on in my home. The Classic Nursery Rhymes Collection is timeless and enjoyable. I found myself singing along!
