Zoboomafoo

My kids love this show! Its educationals and fun for them. The kratt brothers are great role models to their young viewers too. Wish we could view all 3 seasons on Netflix tho.

Although I preferred the clay-mation-less version "Kratt's Creatures", I still love watching this show. Perhaps it's because of the slight crushes I have on the Kratt's brothers, or maybe because of my love for animals, but either way, I get the best of both worlds on this show. I really wish the clay-mations would go though -- that's when I really feel like I'm watching a kids' show, and I kinda don't like being reminded. I still learn things about animals I never knew before, as would most adults watching, so if the cartoons weren't there, it'd probably have a wider audience..... those are just my two cents <:) I especially love the interaction between the brothers and the animals..... it's then that you really can see their passion for nature's creatures.

...and adults alike. Ok, I'll admit it: I watch Zoboomafoo! And I'm not ashamed of it. =) I stumbled across this show one afternoon when Montel was a repeat, and Rosie was a repeat and there was nothing else on. It's great! It's like "The Crocodile Hunter" for children. Lots of animals, goofy brothers who host the show, and a talking leemur as the mascot! Who wouldn't love this show? This one ranks right up there with "Sesame Street" and "The Muppets" from back in my day. (I'm only 18, but that's over-the-hill these days.) I highly recommed this show to everyone.

I used to watch it every day! That's a little embarrassing because I am 21 now, and this was only about a year or so ago. Anyway, all the animals are so cute and there are lots of interesting facts which make the show interesting for adults, even though it is aimed at children. I think my favorite part is when Zoboomafoo comes along and describes an animal that he's seen. I alway try to beat him to the punch and guess the animals before he finishes describing them and the little cartoon picture is complete of the animal. However, some things do get tedious for adults. I mean, how many times do you have to open a closet and have everything fall on your head before you either learn not to open it, or clean it up?

This series is excellent and stands out in children's (and adults!) entertainment. It is educational with joyful and playful abandon. I highly recommend it for all ages but especially if you are looking for great role models and riveting entertainment for your children. My 5 year old has been watching the DVD's since he was 2 and he still bounces around the room like a kangaroo while he watches these favorites! We have to get these wonderful Canadian(?) DVD's posted to us here in Australia and eagerly anticipate each new release. If you are a parent in North America count yourself very fortunate to have such easy access to these fabulous productions. I highly recommend every DVD produced to date by "Zoboomafoo". Enjoy!
