I am almost 14 years old, but I still love this. I watch it all the time on PBS.

Move over Barney! My 3-year-old has refused to watch Barney ever since she first saw Dragon Tales. She gets to choose one hour of television a day and this Dragon Tales video has been a consistent choice. "Dragon Tales: Big Brave Adventures" appeals to pre-schoolers like all of the episodes because of the pre-schooler-like dragons who face many of the same challenges our own children face and because of the upbeat, danceable, singable songs (that appeal to parents too!). Even my 1-year-old dances along! "Big Brave Adventures" features three must-see fear-conquering episodes that offer kids a dragon in a situation they can relate to and that offer parents a point of reasoning with preschooler fears about the doctor, fears about the dark, and fears of doing something new without mom and dad.

these are simply three episodes of dragon tales that can just as easily be viewed on pbs. my 3 year old enjoyed them but tired of the same three episodes after a short time.

What a wonderful video! My 3 year old loves Dragon Tales and this video puts together 3 very good shows. It teaches children that it is ok to be afraid and that talking about it will help. It also teaches parents to be patient and work with children, on their level, to over come their fears.

This video is a collection of three of the shows on PBS. The kids love it since it does not have commercials. Highly recommended.

Wonderful production, beautiful scenery, brightly colored characters. Good "crisis-proofing" for potential crises like sleepovers, doctor visits and darkness. Good role models for sharing feelings and working through fears with play. Children loved it. They danced and sang along and immediately identified with the characters. "I slept over at my grandma's house and I was scared too." "Lets pretend we're going to the doctor's office." "The dragon had a thorn in his foot." Ages 2-5.
