Bob the Builder - Series 1 - Complete DVD
My son had this bought for his third birthday and it has kept him entertained for hours. He has always been a big Bob the Builder fan and has so many of the toys and Books that we feel the house is being taken over by Bob and his Crew.
However, my son would be upset when he couldn't watch Bob the Builder when he wanted to - he had to wait for it to appear on tv, and as soon as it was finished he asked for more.
The DVD was a godsend as it contains over 130 minutes packed full of Bob the Builder episodes. The complete series contains 10 Episodes of the adventures and mishaps of Bob and his crew. Episodes such as when Bob and his crew take part in races through Bobsville, when they are repairing barns and even an episode where they are hunting for a nose that has gone missing!
I am happy for my son to sit and watch this DVD as I feel Bob the Builder teaches lots of ideals to children - it teaches teambuilding, being friends, sharing, and working hard to achieve results.
I would highly recommend this to any parent who is looking for a Bob the Builder DVD for their child. It is fun packed, entertaining and educational. It is also fantastic value for money and is a timeless classic that can be watched time and time again by your children and their friends. I would say this DVD would be suitabe for children from the ages of 1 right through to 6 - although I will say that some adults seem to love it too -as I have caught my husband watching it many a time!!!
