Mother Goose Treasury - Vol. 2 Review
I was first introduced to this series as a teen while babysitting 20 years ago. I purchased the 4 VHS tapes for my firstborn 15 years ago, and with a tear in my eye gave them away when we no longer had a VCR. I was elated to find 2 treasuries on DVD, and even more excited when I discovered all the original songs and rhymes were combined into the 2 DVD's. The songs are catchy and easy for youngsters to remember. I enjoy "singing along" to my favorite classics while my children from 3 mos old to 11 yrs old enjoy the colorful costumes of the dancing characters.
Another plus for the DVD is being able to play it on short car trips without fussing about having to see it to the end. This is truly a timeless series!
Mother Goose Treasury - Vol. 2 Overview
The most endured and popular nursery rhymes of Mother Goose are timeless, and children who could only see and hear the classic tales, can now sing along. Each song is lavishly produced with full orchestration, beautiful costuming, and exquisitely detaile
Mother Goose Treasury - Vol. 2 Specifications
Tired of inane sing-along videos with cheesy music and a lack of cohesiveness? The Mother Goose Treasury, Vol. 2 features fully orchestrated songs, elaborate costuming, bright backgrounds, and even a story line! The scatterbrained Mother Goose and her young gosling Bertram are headed to town to complete some grocery shopping. Along the way they encounter a plethora of famous Mother Goose characters, including Jack (as in "Jack be nimble, Jack be quick"), Miss Muffet, Mary (and her lamb), Humpty Dumpty, and Simple Simon. Each encounter elicits a recitation of the appropriate story, either in song or verse, complete with choreography, puppetry, and onscreen subtitles. The "puppetronic" technology deserves special mention--it brings the puppetry to life and is suggestive of Jim Henson's Muppet productions. Joining the puppets is a large cast of human actors who sing, dance, and generally enthrall audiences from 3 to 8 years old. This volume offers 58 minutes of sing-along fun that kids will request repeatedly. For more Mother Goose sing-alongs, check out Mother Goose Treasury, Vol. 1. --Tami Horiuchi
