Memories are made of these Got this as a present for my kid, and to relive my growing up days.
WARNING: the following content contains gratuitous scenes of cookie eating, viewer discretion is advised. OK, there is some disclaimer at the beginning of this that children these days should not watch this and that it is only meant for adults to reminisce. I assume it is because of cookie monster or something, seems silly to me. I watched this with my toddler and I think it's fine. It is certainly more appropriate than junk that teaches kids to dress like hookers (I'm looking at you, Bratz).
I loved watching this with my daughter, old school Sesame Street is so much better than the junk on these days. Most stuff these days are nothing more than CGI with no story or real entertainment value (Ice Age, Cars, Skrek, the Disney channel). I really enjoy this because it is very creative. They are on a really tight budget, but they do a good job putting together all sorts of different skits and songs with a lot of variety. And I even get a legitimate chuckle every now and then--unlike the eye-rolling lame jokes on Hannah Montana. This is perfect for kids and adults to enjoy together.
Okay We enjoyed the nostalgia, but there were'nt as many episodes as we thought. It's definitely dated, but still wholesome entertainment for our child.
Sesame Old School Vol. 2 I think it's terrific! I can hardly wait to see Volume 3. When will it be available?
For Parents Only This item is definitely for the parents! My 20 month old loves Sesame Street but he was so bored with the Old School. So much has changed...for the better! I loved it because it was nostalgic but there wasn't nearly enough Big Bird for my little guy.
