This I Spy dvd, and the other one in the series, are aimed at 2 year olds to 6 year olds (plus or minus). There are a lot of junk kid videos on the market. this definitely is not one of them. it is based on the i spy books. there are lots of colorful and interesting objects on the screen to look at, and several levels in which kids can play the game (solving problems) -- including a very difficult "super challenger" game in each episode. The language is unoffensive, the main values illustrated are cooperation, friendship, and sharing. Each dvd has six episodes, divided into three sets of two. The dvd could be improved by making it possible to play all 6 episodes sequentially. but that is a minor glitch. I have a 3 year old and a seven year old. both consistently find something of interest in it to watch. It is my three year old's favorite video.

My son is almost two. I spy are not his favorite but he likes them. I think he liked the Runaway Robot better.

I purchased for my 4 yr. old grandson. He loved the other ones in the series so I had to get him this one. It's fun and he gets very
involved while watching and participates.

My son loves this DVD! He was inspired to make his own contraptions, like the dominoes, in which the action of one item caused a reaction in another. He also wanted to build his own Spyler. It had some cute stories and at the same time required the viewer to be attentive and observant while watching, in order to pick out what the items that needed to be found.

If you like the I SPY books you will like this video. I picked this up for $3.99 wasn't sure if my daughter would like it...she loves it!!! Didn't move, stayed focused especially during the part where they look for the specified item on the screen.
We will have to invest in more of these. Great Gift idea also!!!

This, along with the other iSPY DVDs, is a well-made and welcomed issue. The DVD is very high quality and very much in line with the HBO TV children's series of the same name. I would recommend it for any parent looking for a "mobile" version for their child!
