February DVDs to See

We have a number of great DVDs for you to check out this month. Here is the first installment of reviews.

Bob the Builder: Race to the Finish – A new Bob the Builder film that introduces Gripper and Grabber, my oldest son’s new favorite characters. In fact, he already has plans to be Gripper for Halloween and wants his little brother to be Grabber. (Let’s hope he finds some other character to focus on in the next 8 months) You can get busy with this DVD at Amazon.com.

 Thomas & Friends: Railway Friends – This is a totally different Thomas DVD then you’re used to. It’s the first DVD of Thomas that is based on the CGI animated series. My sons are are really enjoying the six episodes and have enjoyed meeting a new crane from the Island of Sodor. Steam on over here to check this DVD out.

Here Comes Spring – We love these season-inspired HIT Favorites DVDS. This one focuses on Spring and includes episodes from Barney, Thomas & Friends, Fifi and the Flowertots, Bob the Builder, Fireman Sam, Kipper, and our new favorite, Roary the Racing Car. We have especially enjoyed watching “Barney’s Big Garden” and singing the Happy Helper song. We’ve watched this episode a ton recently as my youngest son receives his nebulizer treatments. You can spring along to Amazon.com to pick up a copy.

Shaun the Sheep: Back in the BA-A-ATH – The boys find the Shaun the Sheep episodes on Disney hilarious and were excited to check out this DVD. I love that simple comedy that makes you have a good belly laugh. This DVD features eight short episodes and a ‘sing along’ with Shaun. This fun farm-friendly DVD is available on Amazon.com.

The How’d They Build That series – For dads, moms, boys, and girls, there is a fun and educational series that shows us how big trucks are built. With intense concentration, my oldest son just loves to watch exactly how his favorite vehicles are created. Each DVD illustrates the creation of a different vehicle. Our favorite DVD has been of the fire trucks and school buses but there are also DVDs for concrete, garbage, and big trucks. You can truck over to Amazon.com to order or pre-order them all.
