5.0 out of 5 stars Soccer - is FUN - for kids!, February 25, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Soccer For Kids Starring Squishy - Getting Started [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video has really encouraged my sons to kick the soccer ball around with each other. This is not a video that will teach them all the "tricks"; it is designed to motivate the children to just get out there, practice, and have fun. This is a great video for beginners.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good basic overview for that 5 year old new to soccer, September 17, 2000

Deals very generally with dribbling, passing, kicking, trapping, throw-ins, corner kicks and goal kicks, and various nomenclature of the game. Gives a very general discussion of the objectives and rules in soccer. My 5 year old has watched it 4 times today (she likes "squishy" the soccer ball). It's fairly short, but gives kids the requisite background to realize what's going on during the game. I recommend it highly for new (young) kids to soccer.

I heartily recommend this well-produced video for all young beginners and parents. For the 3 years that I've coached soccer ages 4-6, I have found this video to be helpful to both the kids and their parents. My own kids, ages 2, 5, & 6 have probably watched it 50 times and still enjoy it. You can't go wrong with this great value for the money.
