Good puppet shows

We borrowed this DVD from the library two weeks ago and my 2.5 year old daughter wants to watch it every day. She really enjoys the puppet shows, such as the "play" that Sesame street characters put on about the "first Christmas" and when Elmo was dancing African dances, and the Jingle Bell song part. She watches it again and again. As an adult, I found these parts to be cute too, but I don't understand why they choose to spend so much time on Kwanzaa. If one tries to be international, what about the Asian holidays which are so obviously left out in this program? November 19, 2008

My daughter is in LOVE with this DVD.

My almost 2 year old loves this DVD. I started letting her watch it about 2 weeks ago (figured I'd wait till November at least). It's a pretty nice overview of 3 holidays and it moves along so she's constantly entertained. It gets me through making dinner which is what I need! November 19, 2008

A "Holiday" dvd not for C_____MAS!!

This dvd is typical of a PC company trying to make peace with all religous holidays. i mean they go on and on for all holidays EXCEPT for CHRISTmas! i mean come on even non believers know what started the day of December 25 holiday we believers call CHRISTmas. It barley mentions Jesus stating he was a good teacher or something like that but goes on about santa claus. i know why sesame street does the things they do but i want to raise my kids to know Jesus and the real reason for the season! If you are a christian parent steer clear of this nonsense! Christmas eve on sesame street isn't so bad, i'm guessing because it was made before being a christian offended people!! August 25, 2008

Very good but tiresome

As an adult it is sometimes difficult to fully comprehend the impact of Elmo, but my kids really love him. This, according to them is a real favourite. It is however holiday oriented, but they do not mind and want to watch this one any time of the year actually. As I wrote, for an adult, this is inexplicable, but...it is better than other programmes, so I can only listen to their recommendation. March 24, 2008

Well worth it!

I bought this DVD approx. a month before Christmas for my almost 2 year old daughter. She watched the Elmo Happy Holidays DVD EVERY DAY and never got tired or bored of it. The DVD is entertaining, educational and fun to watch. It is a wonderful DVD for any child who loves Elmo and well worth the money. December 30, 2007
