Prima Princessa Presents Swan LakePrima Princessa Presents Swan Lake
Buy new: $11.49 / Used from: $10.49
My girls (ages 5 & 7) LOVE watching this DVD while wearing their tutus, twirling around our livingroom. In the DVD a fairy princess takes a group of adorable kids to see "Swan Lake" which is cleaverly abbreviated and narrated. Between acts they come home and in a fun montage learn about ballet from students at the New York City Ballet School.
A Charlie Brown ChristmasA Charlie Brown Christmas
Buy used from: $9.19
This is a classic favorite in our house, and our entire family sits down to watch Charlie Brown's Christmas very holiday. Everytime we hear the classic Vince Christmas song we all get misty-eyed and hum along the jazzy holiday tune. Heart warming, funny, great fun after all these years. Could have been made yesterday.
Schoolhouse Rock! (Special 30th Anniversary Edition)Schoolhouse Rock! (Special 30th Anniversary Edition)
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $9.93
My kids jump around the house singing about punctuations, the pre-amble to the constitution and much more. It's great fun for me and my husband as well, since we remember all these songs from when these shorts were on TV when we were kids in the 70s and 80s.

Buy used from: $2.00
Educational, beautiful, great for little kids 3-6 years old. Madeline is a classic that will always be fresh, sweet, nurting, strong and most importantly fun. It's quiet nature makes for good calming down effect when you need your kids to take it down a notch.
Cool RunningsCool Runnings
Buy new: $9.49 / Used from: $6.02
My son had a sleep-over birthday party with 10 hyper 8 year olds, and at the end of the party we put on "Cool Runnings." They were glued to the TV and were so into it they didn't even notice the popcorn. It's an inspiring story of Jamaican Bobsledders who against all odds make it to the Olympics. This is very funny and great family fun!

Curious George Zoo Nights & the other stories are fantastic and quite true to the original books. The stories are great fun and fancifully animated.

If your kids love heavy machinery they will love this DVD. My 3 year old son really really loves anything with wheels, gears, dirt, and in anyway associated with digging or farms. This is a fun DVD that the whole family will find amusing, entertaining, and educational. Anyway it's great fun for those who dig digging.
It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie BrownIt's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown
Buy used from: $9.29
I had to end with one of my perenial favoites, yes The Great Pumpkin. My kids call it the Pumpkin Movie, and always ask for it around Halloween time. We watch it together as a family and never every tire of seeing yet one more time. Classic, great, fun, especially when served with a big bowl of candy while watching.
