| I needed a dvd to help my 2 year old wind down and i thought it would help us brush his teeth better by adding a video like this to his nighttime routine. The dvd itself is not very attention grabbing in soem parts, i find him running out of the room a lot. and it's annoying to me. some of the songs are cute though and part of this movie are really good and relaxing. my 2 year old isn't really into sesame street, so I shouldnt' have bought this dvd. am going to try goodnight gorilla video next. also, it would be nice to have a dvd showing the kids brushing their teeth and going through a nighttime routine. was just expecting more overall from this dvd. |

This is a really nice sleepytime video with some of the most beloved characters. It is very nostalgic for me because I absolutely loved the "Everybody Sleeps" song as a little girl and it is included in the video. I believe that is the most helpful portion of the video for my daughter who just turned two. We use this video once or twice a week when we don't read a story before bedtime.
The video is hosted by Big Bird and helps to talk the kids through getting to sleep. Cookie Monster, Ernie and Bert, Snuffleupagus, Gordon, and several other characters have a part.
The reason I did not give this video 5 stars is because at the end of the extremely peaceful, restful video that eases your children quietly into sleep is an Elmo add. It literally goes from soft music box player music of the Sesame Street theme song panning back from Sesame Street into LOUD ELMO AD. I was not happy. I try to quietly step out of the room while my daughter is getting to sleep on the "everybody sleeps" song and try to time it to make it back to stop it from waking her up.
Its a love-hate relationship with this video I'm afriad. The video is great, but I wish they'd saved their darn ads for the beginning if they had to include them. |

| This video is one of my daughter's favorites with many wonderful songs that help her relax before bed. She knows many of the songs and we even do our own version of the "Snuffle Lullaby" dance. |

| My son (22 months) really likes Big Bird, but this show doesn't hold his interest for very long. He likes parts of it, but most of the time he leaves it to go running around. The Baby Einstein first signs video is the one likes before bedtime. They show "sleep" right before it's over and he usually takes himself right into the bedroom when it's over. |

I bought this DVD for our two parrots about a year ago. (They LOVE watching kid's movies!) I can tell it is one of their favorites because they become very animated when we play it. There are several really cute Sesame Street songs on this DVD, but one of our favorites is, "I Dance Myself to Sleep". When this song starts both birds get on the closest perch to the TV set and dance back and forth from foot to foot. One of them flaps her wings. I can't resist singing along when I hear it and dancing along with them. One of the endearing segments of the DVD is a scene with Big Bird where he tells how to snuggle in to go to sleep. He talks about getting nice and comfy and putting your head under your wing and then stops and says, "Well, maybe we're all not birds..." This just makes me grin from ear to ear!
One nice thing about this DVD is that it has the auto play feature which means it will start over on it's own when it's finished. That's always a big plus, not to have to go in and restart it each time.
Children without wings and feathers would likely be even more delighted than the birds with this sweet DVD. The Sesame Street characters are cute and the songs are entertaining. There is lots of music and color all the way through. It's a little bit lively in some parts but not so much so that I think it would keep children awake. Heck, I don't mind watching it and find myself humming the songs at different times. If we ever wear it out, it's one that would be replaced right away. |
