Editorial Reviews

While Bobby Bushbaby and Sunny Honeypossum play a silly version of "Simon Says", Uncle Balzac unexpectedly snatches a fly from Bobby's nose with his long, sticky chameleon tongue, beginning a rousing tour of the amazing animal traits featured in : CHOMPING ON BUGS, SWIMMING SEA SLUGS, AND STUFF THAT MAKES ANIMALS SPECIAL. With the help of Uncle Balzac de Chameleon, Sunny and Bobby learn about the special traits of chameleons, turtles, cheetahs, zebras, and more, finally discovering the unique features that make bush babies and honey possums special too. Meanwhile, animated Francisco Flamingo flaps in with a fascinating "Flamingo Fact" about the camel and the count-to-ten "Number Dance". Plus, "Who's That Living in the Water?" spills the secrets of Celia the sea slug, and Uncle Balzac sings "Every Creature's Special". Each GeoKids puppet character is based on a real animal - Sunny, the Australian honey possum; Bobby, the African bush baby; and Uncle Balzac, a chameleon from Madagascar. Created by Emmy winner Hank Saroyan of Jim Henson's Muppet Babies, GeoKids is certain to entertain and enrich the whole family.

This review is from: National Geographic's GeoKids: Chomping on Bugs, Swimming Sea Slugs, and Stuff That Makes Animals Special [VHS] (VHS Tape)

We absolutely love the GeoKids series. I am so bummed that they aren't making them anymore. They are nice and slow-paced, quirky and educational--but entertaining. We have every single one.
