Kids' Favorite Songs kicks off with a cackle-worthy parody of Bob Dylan doing "Old McDonald," and from there the groovy gags keep comin' 'round the mountain. Everywhere Elmo turns on Sesame Street monsters spontaneously burst into song, and all because they want him to feature their favorite tunes on his forthcoming radio countdown. For Telly, winnowing the hits to one is akin to Cookie Monster choosing between a macaroon and a figgie bar: at first he's sure that "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" lights his fire, but then he says bye-bye to a black sheep. The street heaves a collective sigh pavementward when word comes down that the countdown is strictly a numbers gig, no music involved. Only Sesame Street could weave well-loved musical numbers around a simple numbers lesson with such wacky pizzazz, making this a countdown that's no letdown for high-spirited parent-preschooler combos. --Tammy La Gorce

Rating:
- Perfect
This DVD, along with Kid's Favorite Country Songs, are so entertaining to my son (20 months) when he's awake and upbeat. If you're looking for something a little more relaxing, say before nap or bedtime, or when the kids are a bit cranky after a long day - try Sleepytime Songs and Stories - also a winner.

- Great DVD
Our 15 month old loves this DVD. The songs are ones that he recognizes and it's a bonus that it has a plot and lots of counting backwards from 10 to 1. He dances to the songs- especially 'I've been Working on the Railroad' and 'This Old Bat'.

- What a great learning tool for toddlers
This DVD is great for my toddler. She loves the characters and gets the opportunity to learn a lot through the songs, the actions and the children who are featured in the DVD. She can watch this all day and I needn't be worried about the content getting into her head. It's made for children and its a wonderful way to watch, listen and learn. It's fun for the adults too!!

- I really wanted to like this
Come on, who doesn't want to like Big Bird?In the end, this just fell short.Way, way short!The movie is way way too short, for starters. My little ones LOVE their Trebellina DVD, nothing else I have tried has come close to getting the mileage that one has.Educational and entertaining AND 30 full minutes.
