Today I have a fun treat for you all and that is this new DVD video called “John Deere Fun on the Farm”. This is a new release DVD by TM Books & Video and it arrived in stores on February 8th, 2011.
Here is some information about the video: This 30 minute “Fun on the Farm” video is an engaging foray into the growing cycle. It starts in the spring with planting, then the fields are cultivated, and finally, in the fall, when the leaves change to beautiful shades of red and gold, the farmers harvest their crops using a combine. Host Doodle Rooster and his friends Bell Cow and Harvey Horse take turns introducing young viewers to the marvels of big farm machines all set to a delightful soundtrack of singer/songwriter James Coffey. Take a trip to the “Farm in the Zoo”, a big attraction at Chicago’s Lincoln Park Zoo that teaches city kids about farm life. Then travel to the John Deere Harvester Works in East Moline, IL, to see how John Deere makes their combines. Learn about tractors, cultivators, combines, plows, balers and more. Take a laugh-filled trip to the Wacky Farm and lend a hand and work the land as you explore the many chores kids do on a farm. Along with games like “Name the Letter” and “The Cloud Game”, your little farming enthusiasts are sure to cultivate new seeds of knowledge and have a great time exploring the many facets of life on the farm.
Purchasing Information: John Deere Fun on the Farm is recommended for ages two to five and is available for the suggested retail price of $14.99. Running Time is approximately 40 minutes. You can purchase this video from Amazon.com.
My Review: I have a 22 month old grand daughter and we decided to have a play date so we could watch this video together. As soon as I put this video on for her, she was glued to the television. When she would see certain farm animals she would make animal sounds. (example: When she saw the cow she mooooo’d). The animation on this video is really cute along with the voices of the characters. We enjoyed watching them plant the fields, cultivate the fields and then harvest the crops and along the way we learned about various pieces of farm equipment…most of them I didn’t even know the names of but after watching this video…I do now! I was pleasantly surprised that she sat still for the entire video…matter of fact, once it was over…she watched it again with her pappy. It was hysterical watching the two of them sing and make animal sounds together. This is a super cute and fun video for preschoolers and young children and even the adults who watch it with their children will enjoy it too! Since the video’s arrival, we have watched it several times with our little grand daughter and it’s a big hit here at our home. We give it a big two thumbs up!
