5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful collection, July 4, 2005

Jenma "k9kid5555" (Fresh Meadows, NY) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Magic School Bus Collection (DVD)

My 6 year old daughter absolutely loves this collection. She can't stop watching them since we received them over a week ago. It is nice to have dvds that are educational as well as fun. I ordered the books to go with them, since she likes to read familiar stories.

I agree with the other reviewers that amazon should have listed the episodes expected on this dvd set. I had to wait to get the set before ordeing the dinosaur episode (which is my daughter's favorite), since i did not want a duplicate.

Yes, the collection is of episodes seen on TV. However, as far as the reviewer who claims we are lazy for not just taping the episodes--here in NY there ARE commercials on the channels that carry this show for us. Also, since many parents work, we can't be checking schedules every day and setting VCRs; also, when my daughter adores a show this much--it is much more enjoyable for her to find a dvd with a cover and locate the episodes she wants to watch herself, instaed of having a bunch of them on a homemeade video(this was fine when she was 3 and would watch episodes at random or over and over again). It gives her the independence of choosing her own shows by herself. Also, the dvd provides EXTRAS to use on you computer or dvd player.

Buy the set--it is wonderful.

This review is from: The Magic School Bus Collection (DVD)

So, I LOVE The Magic School Bus and find that when I need to do some work around the house I can leave my 5 year old in the capable hands of Ms. Frizzle. :) That being said; I too had to wait until they arrived to make sure that I didn't double up on episodes. So here is the list;

1. Holiday Special
2. All Dried Up
3. In The Rainforest
4. Inside The Haunted House
5. Going Batty
6. Spins A Web
7.Gets Lost In Space
8. Out Of This World
9. Taking Flight

This has been great for us (especially on Saturdays) when there are sooooo many commercials that take away from the story line. It's a great addition to your collection...or as have found out; a great start to a collection. :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Get on the ball Amazon!, October 30, 2004

This review is from: The Magic School Bus Collection (DVD)

Thank you Judy Storrer of Bryn Mawr, PA. I agree with the other people who have sent a review--my six year old and I love the Magic School Bus, but think it is disgraceful that a shopper has to do the work for Amazon. This is not the Amazon I am used to. I will be buying the 9 episode collection, but perhaps not from Amazon, just to send a message to the powers that be to get on the ball and do their job correctly. If Amazon wants my money, they had better start doing things right--such as listing the episodes on a DVD collection. Surely that can't be that hard? They can give me technical information that I don't need or care about, but the important things--such as the number of episodes on the collection and the titles of those episodes, well I guess that's just too much work for someone at Amazon to do! Thank you once again Mrs. Storrer for doing someone else's job!
