A couple of weeks ago, I received the new Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! DVD, A Little Help From My Friends to review. This show airs nearly 40 times a week on Nick Jr. and Noggin’, but because Mama’s too cheap for cable, neither my kids or I had ever seen it. After giving it a brief preview myself, we sat down to watch it together - and they loved it!

I liked it because the stories were fun but also taught good lessons about friendship, responsibility, and self-esteem. The kids liked it because it was fast-paced, colorful, and musical. My daughter is only 27 months old and a video has to have these things to get her attention. Wubbzy really made her giggle!

A Little Help From My Friends has six episodes and two bonus episodes, so you can break the kids’ video-watching time down into small bites at home, but it’s nice and lengthy when you watch the whole thing - perfect for a long car ride or when Mama needs to make an important and lengthy phone call (like say, to the mortgage company about her escrow. Not that I need to do that…).

This video hit stores last week, so run out and get a copy, or get it at Amazon for $11.49!
