PBS's preschool-targeted wildlife series Zoboomafoo, afavorite among animal lovers young enough to train their focus on the show'srapid-fire scene changes without relying on toothpicks to prop open theireyelids, which have the pesky tendency to blink, explores a bevy of diversehabitats in its third video. Crashing into hosts the Kratt brothers' humbleAnimal Junction abode to get things rolling is a flying squirrel, whicheverybody, lively lemur pal Zoboo included, finds fascinating because itcalls whatever hole's available home. The hyperactive trio then considersother creatures' way-out domestic lives: Zoboo holds the fort while thebrothers, who sometimes come off as cloyingly curious but most often redeemthemselves with wide-eyed, genuine-seeming enthusiasm, head off onfact-finding field trips that open doors to the uncomfortable-seeming homesof porcupines, eagles, and naked mole rats, among exotic others. Spicingthings up throughout are slices of silly animation starring the squealingZoboo, who never can believe his mind, as he puts it, at all the cool thingshe's learning, as well as guessing games ("Who could this animal be--can youhelp me guess this mystery?") and simple educational songs. Frequentzoo-goers and those who find every Fido on the block irresistible will loveit; so will outdoorsy kids who, when they're vicariously visiting wildlife,don't mind a little slapstick between a couple of grown brothers thrown in.--Tammy La Gorce

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Another winner
The Zoboomafoo video series are a big hit in our house - the opening music is enough to get both kids leaping like lemurs!Zoboo himself is like a furry 5 year old - curious and silly, with flashes of brilliant insight.The videos are well done, and are entertaining to adults as well as to kids, even on the "umpteenth" viewing.The information contained in the videos is accurate without being pedantic, and the enviro-friendly messages are not overbearing.Any/all of the videos should be a part ...
