 | Cheesy DVDs but it does keep my 3-yr olds attention!
rating: 3
My 3 1/2 year old really likes these. The DVDs were made in 1995 so they are pretty old though.

Enteraining for toddlers
rating: 4
I ordered this because my grandson watched the Firetruck VHS over and over, and it finally got "eaten" by the player and destroyed. Now he enjoys all 6 of the DVDs.

interesting & educational
rating: 5
My nephew (who is a couple years older than my son) liked these videos, so when I saw one at the library I checked it out to see if my 2 year old would be interested. He LOVED it. We had the 2 videos the library had (trains and airplanes and trucks and firetrucks) in constant rotation for a month, so we decided to get this 6-pack for him for Christmas. It was a big hit. The videos are actually very interesting, and I've found myself learning things about certain subjects (monster trucks, for instance) that I never knew! The acting is a little corny, and the whole genie-thing is a tad creepy, but the kid doesn't seem to mind. Overall, they are great videos: they are fun as well as educational. Though they seem targeted for an older child (maybe 4-8?) They hold my sons attention (he's 27 months now) quite well. Overall, a great value for 6 videos. I think any kid interested in trucks and heavy equipment (which seems to be nearly every preschool boy I know) would appreciate these videos.

Annoyingly great
rating: 4
My boys, 1 and 3, love these videos, especially monster trucks and farm equipment. The genie is annoying, but I have learned to tune the whole thing out after repeated viewings.

Hard Hat Fun!
rating: 5
We bought this six pack of Hard Hat Harry DVDs for our 2 1/2 year old. He loves all kinds of vehicles and these DVDs totally fit the bill. Not only do they capture his interest, but they are quite educational as well. Hard Hat Harry is a "genie" who pops up to teach kids all about how a vehicle works. There is some music but mostly it is interaction between Harry and two kids (a boy and a girl). No scary scenes and not insipidly syrupy sweet like some other DVDs. I would highly recommend these DVDs to anybody with a curious kid -- boy or girl. They would also be super for an older child (like up to age 6 or 7).
