VHS Movie Reviews of Richard Scarry's Best Busy People Video Ever!: (Kids First Award winner) [VHS]

Movie Review: Great video
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm so glad I got this video, there's a wide variety of characters and things they're doing. My son loves the fire trucks, planes, trucks, etc. I'd say a little more to it than the best songs video which he also has.

Movie Review: Truly the best video ever!
Summary: 5 Stars

My 27 mo old son adores this video, and he's not a TV fan at all, which has always been fine by me. But I like the fact that it is only 24 min, so if he requests to watch it every day -which he does- he's still not sitting zombified in front of the TV all morning. We watch it together and while I do have it memorized by now, it is pleasant enough to see again and again. The animation is classic and easy to watch, and the story plays out almost like a story book, complete with narration and one character talking at a time, instead of the modern shows on TV these days that both my son and I find loud, interruptive, hyper, and disjointed with too much loud music and crazy sound effects. This must be one of the oldest in the series because I've since purchased 2 others and they are more modern in their animation and hyperactivity so this one is by far the best of the collection if you have a mellow kid like mine. He acts out scenes with his own toys and props and sings the songs, which are simple, adorable and easy to learn. We highly recommend it!

Movie Review: Not enough time to enjoy it
Summary: 3 Stars

It's a nicely narrated Richard Scarry story, but it cuts too short, not allowing a child time to learn the main characters. For the price I paid I would have preferred 2 or 3 Scarry episodes.

Movie Review: Best DVD - period.
Summary: 5 Stars

We are on our second copy of the DVD - grandson's absolute favorite. We link to the book for discussion.

Movie Review: Great for kids with learning disabilities
Summary: 5 Stars

I've been trying to teach my autistic son occupations for over a year now. He loves to watch movies and brings it to me for him to watch on a regular basis. This video gets his attention and has given me a way to reintroduce his flashcards while watching the movie. He's starting to make a connection as to what that person actually does. Anyone with an autistic child with receptive language delays know this is not something you can just explain to them and expect them to understand you.

Summary of Richard Scarry's Best Busy People Video Ever!: (Kids First Award winner) [VHS]

Huckle, Lowly Worm, and rest of the schoolchildren are inspired by their teacher's discussion about different kinds of occupations and what people in those fields do all day. The kids run to the schoolyard for some make-believe, playing at what they'd like to be when they grow up. Huckle becomes a grocer like his father, Freddie Fox a baker specializing in mud pies, and Rhonda Raccoon a truck driver delivering baked goods. Consistent with the usual excellence of the Richard Scarry video series, Best Busy People introduces the concept of how a complicated society functions, with everyone's job having an impact on everyone else's. The jokes are funny, the songs are sweet, and Scarry's popular book What Do People Do All Day? makes great supplementary reading. --Tom Keogh
