5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Scottish Christmas Special, December 16, 2006

This review is from: Toot & Puddle: I'll Be Home for Christmas (DVD)

This special aired recently on Noggin and now it's available for all to own on DVD. The DVD comes with a bonus music feature.


This special finds Toot headed to Scotland to celebrate his Grandma's one-hundredth birthday. Puddle stays home and gets ready for Christmas with the cute little pig Opal, but Toot promises to be home for Christmas.

Once in Scotland, Toot gets a big dose of Scottish culture. He learns traditional Scottish songs, wears a kilt and participates in Scottish Christmas-caroling (though he only hums along.) When it comes time to go home, Toot is hampered by flight delays and such, and worries that he won't make it home. But he discovers new friends, helps out a timid elephant who's afraid of mice ("What can I say? It's genetic.") and celebrates even more international culture.

This special has cute animation, winning vocal and instrumental music and a nice plot. My only small nitpick was an excess of scene changes that seemed somewhat unnecessary. Otherwise, excellent special. Hopefully will become a classic.

This review is from: Toot & Puddle: I'll Be Home for Christmas (DVD)

I have a 2.5 year old and he loves watching the DVD along with reading the book. Very well done and just a bonus that it was produced by National Geographic. Great Christmas gift (if you can find it) along with the book. Toot & Puddle also has a line of other books that are entertaining to kids and have fantastic illustrations for the grown-ups to appreciate.

5.0 out of 5 stars Adorable Piglets, January 2, 2008

This review is from: Toot & Puddle: I'll Be Home for Christmas (DVD)

I bought this dvd for my sister's kids, an eight year old, a six year old and a toddler. They loved it and watched it about twelve times this Christmas season. I watched it with them and thought it was adorable. Toot's and Puddle's voices weren't annoying or weird. This is an issue with me if I am already familiar with a character in a book. I have read the Toot and Puddle series with my nieces and nephew, we all thought they sounded and acted exactly as we imagined they would.
