This is one of those children's series that I can actually watch with the kids and laugh right along with them. I like this version much better than the older claymation which we also own, but more importantly, the kids like it and will watch it over, and over and.......

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Children's Entertainment, September 19, 2007

This review is from: Curious George - Rocket Ride and Other Adventures (DVD)

My wife and I do not favor much television for children, but there are times it is suitable. Our two-year old is simply wild about this Curious George series. It is not only entertaining, but CG solves problems and learns things in each episode, that the child can learn with him, so his parents are wild about it, too! From the lessons to the voices to the animation -- even the theme music -- all is very well done. Highly recommended.
