Aeosops Animated Fables - Bumper Edition Vol.2 DVD

Advantages: 6 short stories so keeps the children entertained without them becoming bored!
Disadvantages: Cant spend time with my niece as all she wants to do is watch it!

...This DVD is fantastic! It kept my niece (and myself!) entertained for over an hour! It contains all the magic of disney and its unique story telling layout will mesmerise the children long enough for you to have some 'me' time! It is one of those DVD's that they can watch time after time and not get bored as it contains six short animated childrens stories which will keep the children entertained!, It was well worth the investment! The DVD contains all those favourite stories such as the ugly duckling and The old mill and i would say it is well worth the purchase especially if you have children between the ages of four and ten! In fact the only draw back is i cant spend time with my niece anymore as all she wants to do is watch this DVD!... Read review

Advantages: Not a lot to comment on!
Disadvantages: didn't keep the kids attention, not as animated or colourful expected

...I bought this DVD for my 4 year old nephew and neice of 7. Usually they will happily sit and watch a DVD, with the most important features probabily being the colours, voices and for my neice something to make her laugh. Initially the kids were fine watching it, but about 10 mins into it, they were getting restless and they were not impressed. They seemed more interested in having it on in the backround wilst doing numerous other things!! I guess with the high quality of animation of today, its no surprise. Therefore I would not really recommend you buy this product, mainly as there are so many options in terms of DVD's that you are able to buy, which will far exceed what this childrens DVD has to offer....

Advantages: original series, classic family entertainment, reinforces great values
Disadvantages: lack of episode continuity within the series in distribution

...throughout the world while facing many personal challenges. This particular disc is a follow onto Vol 1 (I will review that when I locate the Caio listing), and contains 5 episodes. The episodes are: The Big Star Round-Up (episode 7, series 2) The Camp Out (episode 8, series 2) Bravest of the Brave (episode 10, series 2) The Long Lost Care Bears (episode 11, series 2) Birthday Bear's Blues (episode 12, series 2) The disc is 110 minutes long, and the episodes appear to be complete and unedited. the transfer from film is excellent, and the sound is clear and unmuffled, which is a niggle I often find on cheap DVD editions. It is no frills, so without any extras, though occasionally I have seen this edition released around holidays with a bonus Care Bear cuddly toy with it. My only complaint is while it is inexpensive enough, the series only ran... Read review
