bee bright - Out & About on the Farm - Amazing Animals! - Justin Fletcher

This is the 4th of the Bee Bright range we have bought and once again it doesn't fail to fulfil our expectations.We have a 3 year old son and have bought many DVDs along similar lines but this is top of the list for both him and us. It is neatly split into 4 sections (sheep, pigs, cows and chickens) each of a suitable length to hold his attention but not leave him sitting there glued to the TV for hours. It is narrated by Justin Fletcher (Mr Tumble) so is a familiar voice for young children and features the characters of Buzz and Fizz.At first I wasn't sure about how suitable it would be for a young child with things such as lambing and milking covered but each subject is handled in a sensitive way that even very young children can understand, without being patronising. You can happily sit and watch this with your child without getting bored, well not the first 100 times anyway, and will probably learn something new too! The music isn't annoying as is often the case with these things and to be honest it just comes across as a quality product and not just a pile of clips that have cheaply been cobbled together as we have found with some other DVDs.We are eagerly awaiting the release of the next in the series, Mighty Machines!Hubby has just added that as is often the case with childrens DVDs when you've watched them so many times you start looking for/noticing mistakes - so far with Bee Bright we haven't found any. Speaks volumes!

my son loves this DVD and watches it all the time. It is very enjoyable and my husband sits and watches it with him as also very informative

My two being 6 and 3 are big farming addicts, so have purchased all tractor ted dvds books etc which have been played and played so 'On the Farm' had alot to live up to and lm glad to say it rose to the occasion and on asking my two how it compared with tractor ted they both shouted its better much better.... Well done Bee Bright and of course Justin!A successful purchase to keep my two amused during our long trek to france for our in-car entertainment, they have been promised the next one and carnt wait....Very informative with a friendly familar voice over, great stuff which keeps them glued to the screen and lots of laughter. (very rarely do l review but had to share this one with all other mums and dads who have farming mad little ones)

Tiny delay with delivery, buf I was notified and kept in the picture , lovely DVD my grandson loves it

My 2 and a half year old adores this DVD, which he will always ask to watch in preference to Tractor Ted. The sound track, the filming and the commentary all work well to make this a captivating DVD. The attention to detail is great and I'm sure it is this which keeps my child absolutely fascinated. The DVD is educational but in a fun way and my little boy will often talk about what the animals were doing, long after he has finished watching the DVD.My little boy (and I) can't wait for the rest of the series to be released! Hurry up!

I went online initially to buy tractor ted for my tractor mad 2.5 year old but saw this and am so glad I did. It's informative and interesting I even sat with him and learnt about animals. The fact Justin narrates it makes it feel like an old friend telling a story and there are no annoying theme tunes or songs. My son even lives the classical music at the end. If you have children who love farms and want a change from the usual cartoon aimed at this market, then I'd highly recommend.

not as well accepted as Mr Tumble. perhaps better for younger children

My little boy loves this DVD so much he would watch It all day long if i allowed him to. As soon as its finished he wants it on again. He loves Buzz and Fizz more than any other animated charcters. It's nice to have him watch something a bit informative. He loves the bee bright series anyway and has all the DVDs but he does actually learn things from them.I must admit from my point of view it looks quite boring but I'm at the stage now where I just tune out during any kids tv.
