5.0 out of 5 stars A "Fantastic" Introduction to the Planets, May 19, 2006

By	Deep Space Deborah (Arcadia, CA USA) - See all my reviews

If your child is not that into Astronomy and the planets, then get this DVD immediately. My son is six and could care less about the planets. His father works for JPL and is disappointed that our boy doesn't share dad's enthusiasm for space. Now, that has all changed. Last night, my son was re-enacting a scene from the DVD and rattled off the names of all nine planets along with some other facts that he absorbed from his two viewings (back to back). His father is ecstatic, and tonight we are going to do some star gazing together. I think that since the planets are characters that my son's imagination and fascination ignited! Great DVD!

5.0 out of 5 stars Always in our DVD player!, May 18, 2006

By	Emily Travis (Birmingham, Al) - See all my reviews

We just got this DVD last week, but ever since that time it has remained in the DVD player and has been viewed at least a dozen times by my three year old daughter, Cassidy. She LOVES this DVD and all the planets that come to life. She sings along and has really learned her planets. The songs are top notch. The DVD is enjoyable for adults, even after ten viewings when most kid videos would become painful. A+++++++++++

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING DVD FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY!, August 2, 2005

By	Videoknowitall (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews

I cannot say enough great things about this DVD. We were lucky enough to get an advance copy through a friend who works for a local newspaper. My four-year-old and seven-year-old watch this DVD over and over again. They love the adventure and the wonderful songs. My husband and I love the fact that they now know all the planets and details that even we didn't know! The planets are funny characters that come to life with some pretty amazing-looking special effects. Because the planets are so fun and captivating my kids totally know these planets like they are their best friends. It's so gratifying for my husband and me to hear them sing along with the film and have so much fun. There is even an interactive space quiz after the film that my kids love to take. When they answered all the questions correctly, we printed out their "Certificates of Merit" that are on the DVD and can be customized on the computer with your child's name and the date. Very cool! My children keep these awards in their rooms and really feel a proud sense of accomplishment. Very cute! The songs are so catchy that I caught my husband singing "THE PLANET SONG" in the shower. The bonus footage from NASA was great, too. This is definitely one of those special DVDs that children will watch repeatedly and is a wonderful addition to our family DVD collection. I think that, throughout their lives, our children will always be able to put a face to the planets and, in so doing, really remember them. I highly recommend this DVD! A+++
