Logic and Science -- All in One Show! A review of "Peep"
Pam Tee | 01/30/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)
"Some television shows just sit there. Others are worth their weight in gold. As a mom who is pretty picky, I have to say that I really like this show.
As the other reviewers have noted, this series has cute characters and is done very professionally. However, what really stands out is it's ability to teach children reasoning skills. Every episode has a problem and Peep, Duck (my personal favorite), Chirp and company demonstrate the various ways that one can look at the problem; and how one might approach the problem to solve it.
Failure? That just means you need to go back to the drawing board and try again.
FOUR Stars. Provides teaching moments that most other shows don't. Sit and watch the show with your child and then see how many times during the week you can apply the approaches learned. You'll be pleasantly surprised."
Great product

"You will not be disappointed with purchasing this DVD series. I recommend getting the set over buying them individually because then you will be like I was with the BabyEinstein DVDs, and bought one by one---and in the end, I paid far too much for them individually. When I saw Amazon sold this as a set, I ordered it immediately. We have it on tv in Canada on one of our cable channels, but I wanted to own the DVDs as a keepsake collection. They are THAT good---believe me. There are few things out there that are excellent quality as far as DVDs. I have invested in so many different DVDs. I have been disappointed with many of them, but of the ones I am impressed most with is: Cedarmont Kids, Peep, and Little Einsteins for toddlers and preschoolers. Brainy Baby and similar DVDs just didn't spark that much for me to mention them as the best DVDs."
A must have for kids!

"This is a delightful program - entertaining and educational without feeling it is. The 3 main characters are a hoot - my husband will actually go out of his way to watch this one (the same guy who runs from Blues clues and all the others!). Kids learn a little science in each episode, as do the birds in the show, so your kids are learning along with them. Tons of fun - my 18 month old adores these as does my 6 year old!"
The BEST DVD for your kids!

"If you don't know Peep from Discovery Kids/TLC, you and your kids are missing some really entertaining and educational TV. Each episode conveys some sort of "science" lesson (i.e. how water flows, measuring half-way between two objects). Joan Cusack is the perfect narrator -- and the antics and personalities of the three main characters (Peep, Chirp and Quack) make even my husband and me laugh outrageously! Buy this DVD set and make your kid's TV watching time more valuable!"
PEEP is FANTASTIC !!!

"My girlfriend and I LOVE PEEP! There are a lot of great and funny jokes for adults that kids just wouldn't get. BUT- it's even better for kids!!! This is probably my favorite kids show ever. If you haven't watched it yet- TUNE IN!!! Music by Taj Mahal... Narration by Joan Cusak.... Peep and Quack are just ADORABLE! (so is Chirp!)"
