5.0 out of 5 stars The best kid's train video, September 7, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Train Adventures for Kids: Magical World of Trains [VHS] (VHS Tape)

We have watched this video so much at our house that it finally broke and we must order a new one. My son started watching it when he was 2 and he still loves it at 5. By using an imaginary engineer, Smokey Jones, the video makes learning about different types of trains very entertaining. I would strongly recommend this video to anyone with kids who love trains.

5.0 out of 5 stars good primer for preschool train lovers, January 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Train Adventures for Kids: Magical World of Trains [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Good opening song, easy to sing to, not too hokey. My son LOVES this video! He especially loved the scenes at the real train yard. He also learned safety rules around tracks and yards.

2.0 out of 5 stars Dangerously Stupid!, October 9, 2000

This review is from: Train Adventures for Kids: Magical World of Trains [VHS] (VHS Tape)

My 2-year old loves this video -- we all enjoy the good opening/closing song, lots of train pix, and other little kid characters... BUT! The dialoge is irritatingly cheesey, and the "Smokey Jones" character is not only totally hokey, but shows little kids that it's okay for them to go away to "magic train land" with a strange man by holding on to his rear end! Who wrote this? Do yourself a favor and stick to "Thomas the Tank Engine" and "Trains: Up Close & Personal" !
