Customer Reviews

Magical Diego fun.
I really like Diego because it teaches animal facts and encourages viewer interaction. Many of the mystical/magical episodes are framed as a mythology or as the characters jumping into a book. This DVD does not present it that way. The first episode is longer and strongly magic themed, the other two are not.

Dolby Digital: English Stereo, Spanish Stereo and French Stereo.

3 Episodes:
Diego's Safari Rescue: Elephants are turned into stone by a mosquito-turned-sorceress. Diego, Alicia and Baby Jaguar go to Africa to help Juma find a magic drum to turn them back. In the English version the episode has mixed in Spanish and Swahili words which seemed to be too many. My toddler was getting used to learning the Spanish words, but an extra language as well as the Spanish seemed a little overwhelming--he didn't repeat either language that episode.

Panchita the Praire Dog: Diego and Alicia help a prairie dog find a place to resettle her family.

Jorge the Little Hawk Learns to Migrate: Jorge the Hawk gets separated from the adult hawks; so Diego helps him out with his Hawk plane.

Safari Rescue
I purchased this video for my 16 month old daughter for Christmas. She loves it. It came in handy during our flight back home after celebrating Christmas with our family.

¡No Diego No!
Overly complex-even for Diego. Fails to engage our Dora-loving toddlers. The Spanish track is exhausting to follow due to the bizarre nature of the English/original story. I loved the idea of Diego in Africa (I'm half African), but it gets lost amid the truly weird - versus creative - stories. Back to Dora for us.
