Two kids find themselves magically transported to the wonderful land of Sillyville, where they meet a pixie-ish character named Sillywhim. She asks their help in bringing together the various groups of this imaginative world. (Each group wears a different color and has a bias against any color that's different.) The kids' encounters with the Sillyvillians result in almost nonstop nonsense songs that will delight young viewers: there's everything from "I'm a Nut" to "John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt." The message--that because someone looks different it doesn't mean he or she is bad--is a positive one. And the musical shenanigans will hold the attention of the 1- to 5-year-old audience for repeated viewings. --Marshall Fine

This review is from: Wee Sing In Sillyville [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have worked with children in three different day-cares where the wee sing tapes were used. The children all seem glued to the t.v. I have seen all of the wee sing videos and I think Sillyville out ranks them all. The day-care I currently work at does not have this particular one. They have The Big Rock Candy Mountain and the children all love it. I am going to buy Sillyville for my own son and try to get the day-care to purchase it as well. I have been trying to find this video for the past three years. My mom had a copy that she loaned to someone and she never got it back. We also had at one time The Wee Sing Train, this one was a big hit with the children too. Eventually I hope to own all of the Wee Sing videos.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great family movie, August 22, 1999

This review is from: Wee Sing In Sillyville [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I am 12 years old and I received this video when I was 3 or 4. It was my favorite movie for years. I would watch it over and over and over and over. It is easy for kids to understand yet it is still fun for adults. It teaches a great lesson, "Color shouldn't matter", and the songs are really fun. I still enjoy watching Sillyville with my younger sisters. I own all the Wee Sing movies but this one is my absolute favorite. I recommend it to anyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars A definite show stopper, November 12, 2003

I ABSOLUTELY love this video!! I first saw it when I was a mother's helper for two little boys and could not get the songs out of my head from the first day that I heard it. Years later, I became a teacher in a daycare center, and decided to purchase the video to show to my toddler-aged class. To my amazement, the ENTIRE class sat still for the entire movie, even my hyperactive student!! Even after watching it many times, whenever they heard that the video was coming on, they all would gather around the tv and sit quietly. It is a must have if you have children of any age.
