Everything you'd expect from those roly-poly, TV-bellied creatures is packed into Teletubbies: Nursery Rhymes: animation, videos, singing, dancing, tumbling, and, of course, nursery rhymes. Each of the Teletubbies is introduced to the joys of old-time school rhymes: Po happily noshes on her Tubby Toast as the mysterious speaker rises from the ground to warble "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star." Dipsy and Laa-Laa tumble down hills like "Jack and Jill." Tinky Winky learns the fundamentals of "Pat a Cake." Kids will shriek with Dipsy as he runs away from the fuzzy pink spider that pops into place at the appropriate moment in "Little Miss Muffet," and they'll march about the living room with all four Tubbies to the "Grand Old Duke of York." "Hey Diddle Diddle," "Hickory Dickory Dock," and "Humpty Dumpty," and more are accompanied by much dancing and exclamation. The videos within the video feature a storybook telling of "The Gingerbread Man," and a smooth-voiced crooner intoning rhymes to a group of galloping kiddies. This third video in the Teletubby series--following Here Come the Teletubbies and Dance with the Teletubbies--combines the best of the TV series for entertainment that will have your kids squealing, "Again, again!" --Jenny Brown

4.0 out of 5 stars One of her favorite times of the day, November 29, 1999

By A Customer

Our little three year old is just learning English. She has started singing along with the Teleltubbies in one week. I think nursery rhymes are a good way for children to start learning word patterns. We have other videos. This is the only one she wants to watch.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great video, perhaps geared more towards older toddlers., April 2, 1999

By A Customer

My daughter seems to enjoy the teletubbies, even though she is only 12 months old. She enjoys the music and dancing but most of all she seems to enjoy the "sunshine" when it squeals! However, this video, "Nursery Rhymes" has less music and more "talking", not by the tubbies but by the narrators reciting the rhymes. There is also more time spent inside the tubbies "home" which is less colorful for young viewers. My daughter doesn't respond to it with as much interest as she does the others. I think I would be a great choice for the older viewers, like 2 year olds, verses young toddlers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful video for young toddlers!, September 23, 1999

By A Customer

My 20 month old toddler still loves this video. He's had it for months, and it was an instant hit! This and Favorite Things are his favorite Tubby videos. The Baby's First Impressions videos are also great to have - they give a nice break from Teletubbies and they're very entertaining and educational at the same time!
