Our 3-year old can't get enough of monkeys, and Curious George is his favorite. It's a great way to let him watch a "movie" without completing wasting the time spent. It's a fun way for Daddy and his little boy to spend a few minutes when we could use a break from running around and playing with cars.

Great collection of eight 15-minute episodes, including a live (described by other children) lesson following each story. Our 3-year old has been watching this dvd for almost a year and a half. We have been buying them all as they are released, and wanted to replace this one since ours was scratched. Even Mommy and Daddy don't get tired of it. Willam H Macy is the narrator, we enjoy his descriptions of George's predicaments and thought process. We watched one (or two) before bed, and if our daughter started to cry for more TV, I would describe the episode and she would be more than happy to tell me what George did next, all on the way to bed. We love Curious George!
