"I firmly believe the less TV, the better, for young children and I rate this highly just the same.
My 3 year old daughter loves this--and insists that someone plays it with her! So we dance and sing and call each other by the muppets' names for the whole time, which is a lot of fun.
Sarah Jessica Parker is a joy to watch when she cuddles and plays with her little daughter, who clearly is used to enjoying books.
The reason I took the time to add to the five stars here is that I didn't see my favorite part of this mentioned: the real-life parents/families interacting within the muppet segments. Unlike other Sesame Beginnings, this DVD shows plus size adults, older parents, least one parent of a special needs child, even several parents of multiple children. These families are far easier to relate to than the previous Sesame Beginnings parents, who all looked like LL Bean models."
Loved It!

"We loved this video. We are very selective about what our kids (2 and 3 1/2 year) watch and their viewing time is also very limited. This is one program I recommend. They love seeing Baby Elmo and Big Bird and then imitating the games they play (these games are worth imitating unlike some shows). Regular Sesame Street looses their interest, but they are drawn into the songs and games on this show."
