Teletubbies - Blue Sky - Fantastic Friends and Springtime Surprises

The Teletubbies were created years ago by the BBC (British Broadcasting Company) as an educational resource for infants through pre-schoolers. They are a fabulous series. I have read a lot of drivel from reviewers of this series (claiming that it is dross with no educational value because it entertains babies and pre schoolers) and I just want to have my say. Yes - parents can just leave their kids in front of the show - as many seem to do - but they are great shows to watch with your little ones and interact with. My seven year old was brought up on teletubbies - he loved them. He is now a avid book worm with advanced reading skills. He recently read the Percy Jackson and the Olympian series and has read 14 Warriors novels. I am not saying this is just down to the Teletubbies - I have taught my son to read at home - but Teletubbies was one of the places I started along with early picture books. I have just introduced my 8 month old to the delights of Teletubbies. She becomes really engaged, laughing and shouting at the television. She look at me with amazement! My eldest son is 23 years old and he is studing medicine in the UK. We are from the UK hence my knowledge of the program. I am also a fully qualified teacher in the UK. The BBC produces educational resources for the UK government run schools.

My baby loves Teletubbies so this is fine. I personally don't care for them but as long as my baby love them then that's fine. Have fun!

My daughter loves the sounds that they make. She also likes the ball that LaLa plays with. The squishy sound that Po makes is funny to her. I think they are weird. They no longer televise this show. My daughter loves it. Hopefully everyone can buy this DVD to protest the cancellation of Teletubbies on PBS.

I love all Teletubbies, but apparently, as with all products, improvements are made over time. This DVD is from one of the older shows. It's still a good dvd, but I prefer the newer versions.

What can I say, standard teletubbies fair. If your child has seen a Teletubbies video anywhere before you probably know the reaction: they either love it or show no interest.

This one our Son (1 year old) went bananas over and we had to buy it. He loves the sunny face, the Teletubbies sequences. He loses a bit of interest in the live action sequences and tends to play with other toys, but when the Tubbies come back on he is captivated.

The DVD represents good value as it runs for a long time (I think it is multiple TV shows all run together) without breaks. It's good to put on for a 10 minute distraction or for an hour plus of absolute silence from the little one. High production values, good music, high quality all round.
