"Bear in the Big Blue House" is one of the best currently-running shows for kids. I have seen several Bear DVDs (which are now in the possession of my friends who have preschool kids) and I believe that they are not only entertaining and educational, but reinforce such important concepts as fairness and good sportsmanship.

In this volume, Bear and friends concentrate on getting a good night's sleep, and also learn about good dental hygiene and the importance of making new friends while not abandoning existing friends. My favorite character, Tutter, has logistical problems dealing with several varieties of cheese.

Although these DVDs are for the young children of one of my best friends, they actually aren't painful to watch like so many shows made for kids ("Teletubbies," anyone?), and are, in fact sometimes amusing in ways the kids don't even get, much like Dr. Seuss.

For young kids, the Bear in the Big Blue House series can't be beat.

One of the most endearing aspects of Bear in the Big Blue House is everyone's habit of talking directly to the camera. This has been a part of Muppet practice for years, and when Bear is politely explaining the importance of brushing your teeth before bedtime, it makes children pay attention far more readily. Especially when everyone then breaks into song! Of course, that's the other delightful aspect of the show; little bear Ojo, Tutter mouse, Pip and Pop, Treela the Lemur, and Luna the Moon all join in on one of the cute and catchy numbers. The songs featured in these three episodes ("The Big Sleep," "And to All a Good Night," and "Friends for Life," all from the show's first two series) focus on the rituals of bedtime and make ideal comforters to send a child to bed happily. But since the second episode is about getting to stay up late, that may not be the best choice if sleepiness is your goal. --Paul Tonks

Great DVD, but title is misleading.......2003-02-27

Only one of the 3 episodes on this DVD is about bedtime, which was disappointing. However, ir's still a cute "Bear" DVD. I haven't found that this video is helpful in getting my 2 year old to go to bed, because she's so stimulated by Bear, so I wouldn't reccommend purchasing this DVD for that purpose. I *do* reccommend buying it based on the fact that Bear In The Big Blue House is one of the most charming children's shows today! My daughter loves to dance when Bear Dances, and Tutter just cracks her up!

DVD you gotta love em!!!.......2002-11-06

If you have a toddler Bear in the Big Blue House is wonderful. My 2 1/2 year old has been watching bear since she was 1. The DVD is not only helpful with training a toddler but keeps her attention as well. Luna Luna Luna she justs loves the Moon.

Sleeptime with Bear - DVD.......2002-05-16

My 21m isn't one to sit and have a goodnight story read to him. But when the DVD plays (even just one of the episodes) he is in heaven. This is his favorite ritual before bed. The even tone of all the characters voices in soothing. The sing along is a favorite!
We love Bear!

Great Stuff.......2001-06-05

My 10 mo. old daughter loves the sing-a-longs. This is a great video for children and I love the ability to jump right to the songs.
