5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for little train enthusiast!!!, March 4, 2004

This review is from: Kids Love Trains [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I bought this video 5 years ago for my son's who were 2 and 4 at the time. Being so full of energy it was hard to find a video that could hold their attention long enough for them to sit down and give me a break. "Kid Love Trains" was a Winner. Being a favorite for them for years it is now a favorite for my 3 yr. old daughter today. Same video I purchased from Amazon in 1999, the picture is perfect after so much use.
*Big Bonus* For Parents who find children video's with singing in them tend to get on their nerves after hearing it over and over and over again well this one doesn't, I enjoy hearing the songs on this video. Hope this review helps. It is aggravateing when you buy a video that turns out to be disappointing.

2.0 out of 5 stars Kids love TRAINS, not kiddie songs, December 23, 2001

My 24 month old LOVES trains and everything about them. He does not, however, like kiddie music. With a title like "Kids Love Trains" I thought it would be a hit with him. Not. About 10 minutes into it, he grew tired of the music and asked for a different video. The music detracts from the train footage and the things that he wants to hear and see. My child's all time favorate train video is "Choo Choo Trains, Close Up and Very Personal," which is also the one I would recommend. If your child wants to see and hear trains, there are better videos out there. If your child loves kiddie music and trains are a sideline interest, this is the video for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars My train loving son loves this, but I don't., January 22, 2004

This review is from: Kids Love Trains [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The editing in this video is painfully bad. The trains run upside down and backwards and any possible combination of ways that the videographer's editing program would allow. Its not only irritating but when the images are shown upside down its also a bit nauseating.
The worst part of the video is a scene in which Santa is on a train throwing school supplies onto the tracks to the bedraggled, desperate children who are clamoring after the train, hoping to collect a pencil or maybe a notebook. A man looks teary eyed with joy as his son collects a few items and puts them in an old grocery bag. This scene makes me sad and depressed.
My 2 year old son loves this video and is seemingly immune to the horrible videography and the desperate circumstances of the children involved.
