Celebrate Christmas with the Donut Man and his pal Duncan, September 15, 2000
Join The Donut Repair Club as they return to The Celebration House to present a play about the very first Christmas. The old familiar carols and festive new kid's Christmas songs provide a delightful way to learn that God gave us "The Best Present of All" when He gave us Jesus, and now like the wisemen, we too, can give our "Best Present" back unto Jesus.Featured songs include: Happy Birthday Jesus! The Best Present of All, You Are The Lamb of God, Gentle Mary, Humble Mary, Joy to the World, Glory to God, Oh Come All Ye Faithful, I'll Give My Heart, and Jesus Joy. These original songs help children learn the true meaning of Christmas.

One of our favorites!, May 26, 2007
All 4 of my kids, 3 of which are fully grown, grew up watching Donut Man and years ago we even wrote the company hoping they might replace the likes of 'Barney' with more of this quality of video. It probably won't appeal to the child that watches alot of prime time TV and cartoons, but to the Christian family that keeps their TV watching set on 'mild', this is a delightful VHS. Rob Evans as Donut Man tells Bible stories as it insightfully relates to whatever problem the child may be presenting to him. The stories are enhanced with costume and lively singing by the group of children that help him. It's not overly polished, but that adds to the charm, because there's alot of talent in the kids and the writers and it's well done, too. We are ordering one today because I lost one of our copies, and my son won't leave me alone until I order it. So I thought I'd share how much these have blessed my children with everyone else who might be thinking about ordering a Donut Man but weren't sure if it was another one of those 'dippy' ones... it's not. You'll love it as much as your kids will!
Some of our favorites are-Sharing God's Love 1 & 2, along with the Christmas one(The Best Present of All) and the Easter one(Resurrection Celebration). 'At the Zoo' or the 'On the Farm' one are good ones too if your child is crazy about animals like mine are(were). If you have any old ones laying around that aren't being watched any more, list them on Amazon for the rest of us! I have been amazed at how well some of these VHS tapes have held up over the last 20+ years, unlike most of the DVDs we have played repeatedly the last 2-3 years. My boys even used the VHS as building blocks and they still play perfectly!

Donut Repair Club "The best present of all", December 24, 2008
This is the best of all the children Christmas production I have ever seen. I was in charge of the children ministry in three different churches and a home fellowship for children from (2yrs to 16yr old) and I taught the children this play several times over and it never ceased to thrill the children. The songs are so nice, meaningful and touching the soul. The adults are impressed and reflective.
I strongly recommend it to anyone that wants a fun filled presentation of the Christmas play in or out of church and for kids to just watch and learn the songs at home. Most of the children I taught are now married and have kids of their own and they wrote me to tell me how they are teaching other kids in their church the same play " The best present of all" by Donut repair man.
