a good little monkey, Feb 10 2009

This review is from: Curious George V1 Monkey Colle (DVD)
This nicely priced boxed set contains four DVDs that have been sold separately for $16.98 each ($12.98 at Amazon). Each disk is in the original case. The disks are Curious George: Zoo Night and Other Animal Stories!; Curious George Plays in the Snow and Other Awesome Activities!; Curious George: Takes a Job and More Monkey Business!; Curious George: Rocket Ride and Other Adventures! Each disk has eight episodes.
From what I've seen, many of these have not been shown on PBS for at least the past 6 months. We watch Curious George a lot at my house and they seem to run the same few episodes over and over again. So, this boxed set is not only a bargain--it's a relief! The running time for the four disks, according to the box, is 7 hours and 14 minutes.
Can a Monkey Collection, Volume II be far behind?

My son LOVES this set!, Mar 12 2009

My son is obsessed with Curious George and absolutely loves this set of DVDs. It is so nice because he can watch one at a time and go through all 32 before he has to have a "re-run!" Very nice quality and definitely worth the price. I hope they come out with a Monkey Collection Vol. 2!! We will be purchasing it if it does become available!

Good Educational and Entertaining DVD set, Jun 14 2009

All of my grandkids cover a wide age range, but they all seem to enjoy the Curious George DVDs. For a monkey that doesn't talk, George conveys a lot of teaching in each of his lessons. I liked purchasing this set, Curious George Monkey Collection Volume 1, that features 32 shows in a nice boxed set...no commercials, and I can preview the DVD before the kids see it. My toddler grandchild is going through a "fussy stage" when her mother leaves for work. I gave her a Curious George stuffed animal to hold, and popped in this DVD set and she immediately quieted down and has been distracted ever since!
