Curious kids want to know all about the world around them, no matter the status of their passports. Wee Bee Tunes wacky travel guides, like Alexander Salamander and Cuddly Wuddly Wombat, make enthusiastic tour leaders, accompanying viewers ages 4 through 10 on a musical journey that traverses the world. Historical backgrounds, customs, famous festivals, and major tourist attractions are touched upon for countries like England, Antarctica, Egypt, and the United States. Who could resist a day of shopping at Istanbul's world famous Grand Bazaar in the company of Mae Lin Yak, or a trip down the Amazon River with Oswaldo the Soccer Otter? An onscreen map shows the location of each continent and country, while bright animation and lively, original songs in a variety of styles keep children interested and attentive. This 40-minute program presents basic information about 14 countries in an entertaining, musical format. --Tami Horiuchi

Kids love them!.......2006-08-07
Our kids absolutely love these. They are very well done and come highly recommended from someone who has bought lots of educational DVDs for my kids over the last 7 years!
Truly Educational!.......2005-07-17
My son is familiar with the World map and the globe and all the seven continents since he was 16 months old. When I learned about this video I immediately purchased it and indeed it's a great complement and supplement to what he's already learned! At 21 months old, he's been around the World vicariously! His favorite of all places is Timbuktu!!! He keeps asking me to rewind back to the country of Mali to see Timbuktu again (5X !!ugh) Then Turkey and then Nepal! And Egypt! ... I had to play this video about 3 times everyday and even I'm enjoying it! -- and oh he loves Paris when it mentioned the Mona Lisa painting and Artists Monet and Renoir since he's already familiar with them also!
Too much animation.......2005-03-23
When I bought this I was thinking that they would have colorful, real pictures of the places travelled to with animated characters to keep the kids entertained (kind of like National Geographics Geo Kids videos). I don't think my kids get the full feel of visiting places around the world through all the busy cartoon animation. Good video, but not what I was expecting.
Fun and opens childen's minds.......2004-11-04
My 2 kids love this DVD. It's animation is well done and the songs are entertaining without being obnoxious. Both my 3 year old and 5 year old enjoyed it and they learned alot of about the world, history, culture, and geography. My 3 year old now knows the 7 continents! This DVD really opened their eyes to travel and all of the amazing things to explore in our world. We can't wait to watch the 2nd DVD, which we just bought.
Parents and kids will both love it.......2004-10-27
This is a very well-done set of animated pieces about different places around the world. The animation is very cute, the lyrics are very clever, and the music is enjoyable. It is not "dumbed down" in any way for kids, but there is a lot for them to enjoy in it. Parents can also learn a little about geography and history, as well!
Our toddler loves to watch it, but it would also be great for getting older kids interested in culture and travel.
