Just gotta love that red monster named Elmo, right? Well, we certainly do around here, whoosh! Then there are the Wiggles, which I kinda like them and my kids REALLY like them! All their catchy songs are kinda fun and stay with me all day.

 

I recently had the chance to review ABCs with Elmo and The Wiggles "Hot Potatoes" :) Love them both, we do indeed!

ABC's with Elmo

ABCs WITH ELMO is super cute.

In ABCs with Elmo, Grover is the preschool teacher, Professor Grover, and Elmo is his helper for today’s alphabet lesson! But Before Professor Grover begins class, he instructs his students to find one thing that begins with each letter of the alphabet. Featuring alphabet themed stories and songs, early literacy skills are reinforced while kids become familiar with letter-sound relationships. Kids and caregivers will find it as easy as ABC to join in the fun with their favorite furry friends in a real preschool. My son and daughter loved this DVD and they sang the ABC's with Grover and Elmo. I love how this teaches kids their ABC's. Very fun and entertaining!

The Wiggles

Our absolute favorite (in fact it is on right now for the second time today...), is The Wiggles Hot Potatoes! The Best of The Wiggles. All of the songs, and I mean all of them are super catchy and fun. My son and daughter dance all over our house to these songs. And my son is now singing along to them as he gets more familiar with them. My daughter just came in and sat on the couch to sing one of the songs, it was ADORABLE!!! I even enjoy watching and sometimes dancing, to this DVD with my kids. The Wiggles are not irritating like some videos. They are really silly and don't try to over do the whole kids thing.

About the Wiggles DVD, taken from their press release:

The Wiggles continue to dance and sing into the hearts of children every morning as the hosts of Sprout’s three-hour morning programming block called Wiggly Waffle. In their 19th year together, The Wiggles have sold over 23 million DVDs and 8 million albums worldwide, making them more popular today than ever!  Educating children through entertainment, The Wiggles new DVD Hot Potatoes! The Best of The Wiggles features a collection of their 35 favorite songs including “Wake Up Jeff!”, “Get Ready To Wiggle”, “The Monkey Dance” and “Rock-A-Bye Your Bear.” Each song is instantly memorable and will have children wiggling and singing in seconds!

Just did the robot walk to my 4-year old daughter and told her "I am a robot!" in my robot voice, of course. She laughed at me and is now walking around like a robot. Ironically, she's been into this "robot" thing for a few days now, no idea where she got it from! #1

My kids love elmo and the wiggles so if I won I would give it to them so that we could watch it over and over and over again!

32. colleen   |   Thu Jul 08, 2010 @ 10:32PM

Well, I acted like a robot and said it to my daughter and she just laughed at me and continued reading. My son said "that's silly!" and then he told dad to be a robot too.

33. Beth   |   Fri Jul 09, 2010 @ 12:57AM

We made up our own summer jig when school was out and it went a little something like this: shake like a monster while walking and singing (in a deep voice) "schools out for summer". LOL They thought it was the funniest thing ever! ;)
