A great video to introduce to your infant toddler

"Go Exercise with the Teletubbies is an absolute hit with my 14 month old. She saw it for the first time at 12 months and insists on seeing her "Ya Ya" tape ( La La is the yellow Teletubbie) everyday when she arrives home from daycare. As young as she is, she stays interested in the tape for 30 -45 minutes which allows me to start dinner and relax after work. She dances as she watches and has learned to touch her head, shoulders, knees, and toes like the real kids in the video. While I personally find tapes such as Barney and Sesame Street more entertaining and a lot less repetitive, by far both her Teletubbies tapes are her favorites. She especially likes the facial expressions of the baby sunshine and shrieks with delight when the sun is on the screen. Her grandmother believes that when my daughter walks around swinging her arms, she is imitating the Teletubbies. My daughter is very advanced in language and motorskills and I truly attribute a large part of her early success to her love and interest in the Teletubbies. I strongly encourage parents to introduce this video to their infants as well as Teletubbies books. I am amazed at how excited my daughter gets everytime she watches the video."
Good, but...

"My 2-yr-old daughter, a huge Teletubbies fan, loves this one and loves doing the moves along with the Tubbies. HOWEVER, if you're considering buying this, you should know that it is a "special feature" on "Silly Songs and Funny Dances." If you already own the "Silly Songs" DVD, you already own "Go!""
Great interactive video

"My son, 21 months, loves this video and I love to watch my son while he is watching it. The teletubbies do various 'exercises' throughout the video- things such as: jump, side-to-side, crawl, skip, head-shoulder-knees and toes, and others. When each segment begins my son will begin jumping around, or crawling or doing the other actions. He has learned the song and actions to 'Head-shoulders-knees and toes'. My son also learned to say "Ready-set-go" from this video. It is really cute to say 'Ready' to him and he finishes with 'set-go'.I know as an adult the Teletubbies can be very annoying. But I try and remind myself that the Teletubbies were created for very small children not adults. I'm supposed to be annoyed by them- if I wasn't something would be wrong with my mental capacity.Overall, I would give any Teletubby video 5 stars if it was successful in keeping my son occupied for 15 minutes while I take a shower. So far any Teletubby show my son has watched- whether it was video or on PBS has succeeded."
A Favorite!

"I credit this video with teaching my two-year-old how to jump. Those darned Teletubbies did what my husband and I hadn't been able to manage in months. My son loves watching it and asks for it repeatedly. It's also one of the few Teletubbies videos that don't make my brain hurt."
