DVDs for a 3 year old.. (help)
Hi all..
My nephew is 3 and has really got into watching videos/dvds lately.. and with christmas coming up i'd really appreciate if some parents could recommend me some dvds to buy him for christmas
I know he's into bob the builder.. and Tweenies and things like that.
But he doesn't have much Disney..
What would you recommend for someone his age?
Thanks alot!

Heck, I'm at the age where I love it. I got Seasons 1 & 2 for my kids for Christmas and I'm looking forward to opening them more than they would (if they knew they were getting them
)Back on topic....Don't forget Monsters, Inc. & A Bug's Life. My nephew throws a fit if he sees someone take those DVD's out of the player. Also, you might want to consider Thomas the Tank Engine DVD's. They were a staple in my family.

- ANY Pixar flick.
- Most animated Disney flicks that aren't "direct to video" [or even the animated Disney Treasure volumes].
- The Muppet Show.
- Bear In the Big Blue House.
- Some of the PBS line [Dragon Tales, Clifford, etc.].
- Peanuts.

My NOW four-year-old nephew has been pretty into DVDs since he was two. He always loves Spongebob, Bob the Builder, and used to love The Wiggles. Believe it or not, he can never get enough of anything Spider-Man or of Batman: The Animated Series. My one year old nephew always stays glued to Shrek and Shrek 2, anytime it's playing. He will sit there for HOURS.

I have a 3 and 4YO and they enjoy veggietales, Sesame Street DVDs, everything Pixar has done to date, Little People, Baby Einstein, Osmosis Jones, Rugrats, Iron Giant, Leap Frog Letter Factory, math circus, Boobah, Bob the builder, Dragontales, Shreks 1&2 & Bear in the big blue house

Those Boohbahs are bizarre, someone was tripping when they came up with them.
My son [just turned two] doesn't watch much tv, but when he does, he likes the Wiggles and Dora the Explorer [actually he loves Dora].
He never got into Baby Einstein, but he does like the sample clip of Curious Buddies that's on his Dora dvd [we rented one of the CB dvd's from netflix, and it was cute, but they're too short and they're aimed younger than him.]
Harold and the Purple Crayon, Schoolhouse Rock?
