Disney Read-Along DVD's......Great Idea!, January 11, 2004
This review is from: Monsters, Inc. Disney Read-Along (DVD)
I think the Disney Read-Along DVD's are a lot of fun. My 20 month old really enjoys sitting for the short stories. She's to young to sit through an entire movie, but the Read-Along DVD's are just the right length to hold her attention. I ordered these DVD's for Christmas and was somewhat discouraged after reading the reviews of the other parents. So I didn't expect much, but I was pleasantly surprised after watching them. If you are expecting these DVD's to be educational tools you may be disappointed, they're great for fun time. I read to my daughter so I don't need her sitting in front of the TV with a book. Yes, there are Disney promos and it's still animation, but you have the option of NOT watching the Disney trailers. You select what you want to watch from the main menu ie; the story, music videos or vocabulary. I like the music videos with the on screen lyrics. I also think it's interesting to have vocabulary section which gives you words to choose from in either English, German, Spanish, French or Italian. You also have Disney's web access with this DVD using your computer and a DVD game option. My only complaint is since the stories are so short there should be more than 2 or 3 music videos. Otherwise, This is perfect for my toddler, maybe a little boring for older children. Older Children may appreciate the Leap Frog "Letter Factory" and "Word Factory" DVD's my daughter loves them and they are a more educational.

This review is from: Monsters, Inc. Disney Read-Along (DVD)
I couldnt see any merrit in this DVD. It was recieved as a gift to my grand daughter. If you've seen the movie, the storybook feature was worthless. Most of the songs included werent even in the movie. The rest of the DVD was advertisements for other Disney movies. Why should I pay to see more advertisements??

What I expected, May 11, 2003
This review is from: Monsters, Inc. Disney Read-Along (DVD)
I think people are expecting books with these. My son enjoyed this DVD, even though he's seen the movie, because there are words on the screen. We also liked the vocabulary part of the DVD. Reminds me of the old records that you used to follow along and turn the page when Tinkerbelle's bell sounded, except now it's onscreen.
