Bringing favorite chidhood songs to life.......2007-09-14
What child doesn't love the song Wheels on the Bus. This video brings it to life in a charming way.
This is our favorite Scholastic DVD!.......2007-08-26
We have watched most of the Scholastic Video Collection DVDs and own a few. We just borrowed this one in the library and my daughter said this is her favorite. I think is my favorite too. All the stories are very appropriate for little kids, nothing objectionable (like could be the case in other DVDs in the series which may have good stories with others you do not want your kids watching). This one is a keeper!
Let's Sing Some More.......2007-06-11
My 4 year old enjoys music. So, this classic was worth buying. He really likes trying to sing and dance to (Dem Bones) while watching the animation. Fun for the entire family.
Super DVD!.......2007-06-09
My three year old adores this DVD. (As well as my older kids, but they won't admit it!). He asks to watch it every single day. Each song/story is beautiful and captivating in it's own way. The only story he doesn't like is the "Chinese Violin"; it just doesn't interest him. (I'm not crazy about it, either). The arrangement on "Wheels On The Bus" is especially awesome, I find myself humming it all day.
The kids love it!.......2007-05-07
This is definately my kids favorite video. They are 1 and 2 years old.

My girls love it.......2007-07-19
I bought this DVD to entertain my 18 month old twin girls on a 3 hour flight. They loved it. It helped to make for a pleasant trip. When we got home they again wanted to see this video. They can't get enough of it. They love to sing the songs. We have the CD and use it in the car. It is great!
My baby loves it.......2007-07-18
My son is 20 months & loves this dvd.I got it from the library some wks back since he really likes the song. He was hooked on it the minute it started . I have not seen him enjoy anything on tv as much as this. He asked for it everyday & missed it when I had to return it. So I went online & ordered both the 1st & 2nd for him. He knows all the animals & the fish, he happily shouts out their names when he sees them, he loves the songs & would watch it over & over again if we let him! He does not usually sit in 1 place for more than 15 mins so we were pleasantly surprised. He remembers & asks for specific sounds like fish - glub, or cat - meaow, when I sing the song for him. I must say I like all the songs too esp fill it up.
THIS IS A GREAT PRODUCT, ONE OF THE BEST YOU CAN FIND!.......2007-07-11
This is really an EXCELLENT DVD! Very EDUCATIONAL, WHOLESOME, FUN and ENJOYABLE! You can't help to watch it and enjoy it yourself too! (At least, the first few times . . .)
My two-year-old nephew COMPLETELY FELL IN LOVE with the CD when we introduced it to him when he was one. We got him the DVD for Christmas and he IMMEDIATELY LOVED it. But then eventually we HAD to get the Second Volume, just so that we wouldn't lose our sanity from having to watch the First one over and over again, every single day! . . . (Believe me, we literally had to hide it!)
I don't think you'll regret buying this DVD. Kids REALLY enjoy it and in addition, they get to learn important values. I already got more copies for the other kids in our family and now we're waiting for the THIRD Volume, which we tried to get my nephew for his second birthday, but it wasn't out yet. We've all been waiting!
I would give 100 gold stars!.......2007-06-12
Hands down, without question, the finest video in my kids' collection. This video has been playing strong in our house for almost 2 years now. My son started when he was 1 and now we have a 1 1/2 daughter that loves it just as much him. And the other parents are right, this video is not only adicting to children, but i catch myself singing and watching the video every time i put it on for my kids. it is so fun to play and sing with them to this video...they abosulely love it!
we all sing.......2007-03-08
I did a search one day for the wheels on the bus song on my pc when my 1 year old was crabby... I found the previews and watched with him and he was hooked. I just bought the DVD and my entire family is now singing fill it up, and the others songs in the movie. It's kind of cool to see Roger Daltrey, since I saw him on the first farewell tour with the Who in 1989. When my wife found out there was a second video, she asked me why we don't have it too... I'm getting it today. Really god stuff for all the kids...you'll be singing too!
Description
"The Wheels on the Bus - Mango Helps the Moon Mouse" is the second episode in the award-winning Wheels on the Bus Series.
The DVD once again stars Roger Daltrey as the voice of Argon the Dragon, the driver of the bus. Mango Helps the Moon Mouse also features Saturday Night Live Alumnus, Victoria Jackson, as the Moon Mouse.
For children ages two to four, Mango Helps the Moon Mouse teaches the early socialization skills of Helping, Sharing, Good Manners and Cooperation. The lessons were developed under the guidance of esteemed Yale University Child Psychologist, Dr. Dorothy G. Singer, who ensured that the educational content was correct and that the videos were overall appropriate for the intended age group.
The story follows Mango the monkey and his friends as they help the Moon Mouse, who has crash-landed on the earth while searching for cheese. They all embark on an adventurous bus ride that includes stops at a reptile show, a birthday party, a bird show, and finally the moon itself. Along the way there are fun musical versions of "The Wheels on the Bus" as well as six new songs composed by Laura Hall and sung by Roger Daltrey and Victoria Jackson.
Bonuses include a Behind the Scenes Video that shows the making of the DVD through the eyes of the eleven-year-old star, Janie Laurel Escalle.
A bonus 30-minute-long reptile show expands on the three-minute show in the video, featuring the amazing Reptile Family.
A Lyric Sheet and a Parent's Guide are also included with the DVD. The parent's guide was written by Dr. Dorothy G. Singer, Yale University and helps parents and care-givers extend the teachings and lessons of the video.

worth getting this dvd.......2007-07-18
When I first watched this dvd with my son I did not think it was as good as the first. But my 20 month old son has made his decision, he loves it!!! This one teaches values like sharing & the songs are fun to listen too. They definitely grow on you, give yourself some time esp if you really liked the first dvd. We alternate bet the 2 dvds for my son so it is easier on us!!!!
THIS SECOND VOLUME IS GREAT TOO!!.......2007-07-11
This is really an EXCELLENT EDUCATIONAL, WHOLESOME and FUN DVD! All the kids in my family enjoy it a lot and get to learn about important values in a very vibrant format!
Initially, I got the First Volume for my now two-year-old nephew (when he was one) and he IMMEDIATELY LOVED it. He also COMPLETELY FELL IN LOVE with the CD in this series too and he still enjoys listening to it.
I've already gotten several copies of both Volumes 1 and 2 for all the kids in my family and they don't seem to get enough of them! Now we're waiting for the THIRD Volume to come out!
I don't think you'll regret buying this DVD at all. Kids REALLY do enjoy it! You'd be giving any kid a great gift by exposing them to something very wholesome and constructive.
Awesome Music!.......2006-04-18
We love the music on this DVD! My four-year-old daughter knows every lyric and we sing it everywhere we go. (My year-old daughter hums "The Wheels on the Bus" constantly because of the video and that is pretty cute!) Roger Daltrey has done a wonderful job as the voice of Argon and Victoria Jackson is sooo cute as Moon Mouse. We have the first "Wheels on the Bus" with Mango and Papaya but I think we like this second one better, mostly because the music is so wonderful.
Not as good as the first!!.......2006-03-23
My son loved the first Mango and Papaya Wheels on the Bus. It is still his favorite. He did not even want to watch the Moon Mouse one at first. It has since grown on him and even my husband and I. We still sing the songs from the first one though... ALL of the time!
The Wheels on the Bus - Mango Helps the Moon Mouse.......2006-03-09
If your child loved the first "Wheels on the Bus", they'll have the same enthusiasm for this one. Our two-year old loves the song, does all of the motions, and even calmly got his first boy haircut with Mom and Grandpa singing the "Yellow School Bus" song with him.

A Milestone of Cinema - Completely Astounding!.......2007-03-21
This ist one if the greatest films I have ever laid my hand upon. Intriguing plot with completely recognizable and relateble four dimensional characters. The struggle of the characters was extremely deep, definitely top notch. Screenwriters, pay attention! This film will not leave youre video player for a long, long time.

No Interest.......2007-03-06
My 11 month old daughter has shown NO interest in this everytime I put it in. She loves the Baby Genius song DVDs. I wouldn't recommend this DVD.
Wheels on the bus dcd.......2006-11-11
My grandchildren are mezmerised by this dvd. They sing along with it and love it,
Wonderful Children's DVD.......2006-11-10
I bought this because I wanted to get as many different videos in this series as possible. It is a great series! Each story on the DVD is about 8-10 minutes long and built around a nursery rhyme. Each story has two songs, the original nursery rhyme, and an original song that fits with the story. The stories are cute and creative and these are wonderful "first" videos for a child. Just be prepared for your child to insist on watching them - a lot. The only thing I don't like is the narration on these US versions - Jane Kaczmarek is not as good as Dawn French. Also, anyone that has the UK DVDs in this series should be aware that there are some duplications on this DVD (Jack & Jill, and Twinkle Twinkle). But even with the duplications, this is a nice addition to the series with three unique stories (Humpty Dumpty, Three Ships, and Hot Cross Buns).
My 14-month old LOVES this.......2006-04-30
I got this as a gift from a British friend of mine... when we first turned it on I thought my son would hate it. Wow, was I wrong. He has started singing some of the songs when they come on (he's only 14 months) and it is the FIRST DVD that he has requested by name (Beep Beep). I've read the other reviews - yes, the animation is someone raw and you only hear the "Wheels" song in between, but there are lots of other songs and children could care less about bad animation. Remember the bad stuff we watched as kids? Horribly animated Christmas specials? Bottom line is this - I came online today to purchase a SECOND Wheels DVD because my son is so fascinated with the Humpty Dumpty one.

Wonderful first DVD for kids .......2006-11-10
However, owners of other DVDs in this series should be aware that there is only one unique story on this dvd (Row, Row Row your boat). We have all of these DVDs - both the UK and US versions. I do not think Jane Kaczmarek is nearly as good a narrator as Dawn French, but the voices of the characters in the stories are the same, and these are wonderful first DVDs for kids.
Each story is about 8-10 minutes long and based on a nursery rhyme. There are two songs in each story, one the original nursery rhyme and one a new song that fits with the story. The intro/closing song is always THe Wheels on the bus.
These are great videos but if you already have the other UK and US discs, you could give this one a miss.

Very Entertaining.......2004-07-09
This is a very good movie. My son loves it and I was even interested in seeing the twist they put on the usual nursery rhymes. It was very creative.
