Richard Scarry's Best Busy People Video Ever!: (Kids First Award Winner)

List Price: $7.98

Amazon.com:

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

Not enough time to enjoy it
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.

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

Great for kids with learning disabilities
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.

just 24 minutes of video
The video is nice and entertaining for children.
But it lasts only 24 minutes. The indications on the box on the running time are misleading.
I believe that for its price, 24 minutes of video are poor and disappointing. Other DVD for the same age range and price run for more than twice it (Thomas and friends, Barney, Dora, Elmo).
I would recommend parents to choose another DVD and to carefully look at the duration of the movie, since children might get bored soon of repeated programmes.

Love this video!
My son loved this video the first time he saw it. It is entertaining, wholesome and very sweet. Absolutely nothing questionable for a little 2 year old's brain to absorb. My husband and I both loved Richard Scarry books as children, so it's really fun to see our son loving the same characters we did as children.
