Action Bible Songs without much action.......2005-05-01

We have a 20-month-old and 4.5-year-old. I purchased this DVD after seeing that it has all of the great songs from my childhood. As expected, it has smiling kids singing in a brightly-colored studio. The music is canned and overproduced.

Unfortunately, during many of the songs, the children sway to the music with their arms at their sides instead of doing all of the "actions" with the songs! In some of the songs, they start the actions at the second verse (often a repeat of the first verse). This is a lousy way to entice the viewers to participate in the actions -- hand motions and body movements -- which is the primary reason I wanted a DVD of action Bible songs that I loved as a child.

The song "This Little Light of Mine" even leaves out the funnest verses for children to sing and act out: "Don't let Satan blow it out" (with a big puff of air instead of the word "blow") and "Hide it under a bushel? NO!" (covering up a finger acting as the light, then pulling it off with a shout of "No").

By way of comparison, our children were captivated by a Cedarmont Kids DVD by the same name (Action Bible Songs). The Cedarmont Kids DVD is a much better production, but, unfortunately, has the same flaw of leaving out the actions in many of the songs.
