5.0 out of 5 stars The video's that started it all, December 27, 2005

We have watched this series of videos from the time our son was just over 1 year old. They have held his attention for the past 4 years now, and his Mom and I have enjoyed them as well. We would have to credit this series for being a big part of our junior scientist's long lasting interst in and knowledge of animals, the environment, geography, and biology. He learned all the continents and major (many minor as well) countries from the series and from seeking additional information from us and the library. We now have the entire series on DVD and they continue to be among his favorite videos (along with National Geographics' Kratt Brothers). If you love animals and want good quality, educational material for your toddler/pre-k/1st-2nd grade young one, you can't go wrong with this series!

This is probably one of the best wild animal collections I have found that is suitable for a preschooler. My 3yr old son received this as a gift for his 3rd birthday and absolutely loves it. The DVD's are informative without being too explicit. No zebras being eaten here! If you aren't sure about buying all four, I would definately recommend the Deep Sea Dive (for the fish fans) and Swinging Safari (for the wild animal fans).

2.0 out of 5 stars Not exactly what I was anticipating..., July 5, 2007

This review is from: National Geographic's Really Wild Animals Gift Set (DVD)

This DVD set was disappointing in it's presentation and delivery; especially the dino video, and my son was looking forward to that one most. The "filler" silly humor is a waste of film space - I think I'd rather purchase an adult version of a National Geographic documentary. Flashing disjointed scenes of various dinosaurs to some kind of rap I suppose the producers deemed kid-friendly was not appealing to my 6 yr. old at all. He kept asking when the show was actually going to start. Overall, it's not a "bad" set...it's just not worth the money. Turn on the Discovery Channel instead.
