| | Customer Reviews: try your toddler out on it before buying some don't like it! (02 January 2009)My 16 month girl loves Maisy, Pingu and Kipper but after watching Night Garden once didn't want to do it again and asks for it to be switched off the moment the music starts. I found it VERY dull so can't say I'm too sorry! Far more happens in her other dvds! Beautifull and Calming....most of the time (15 December 2008)Many mentioned not getting it. Remember this is a kids program so if your kids appear to be spell bound then it's done its job. My wife excitedly brought this program to my attention early last year and she was hooked on the concept long before release. As for me, I am a little older and I see alot of the Magic Roundabout, along with subliminal messages! its perfect (25 April 2008)i think all the in the night garden storys are wonderful. i have three young children and along with my husband we watch as a family. i find their way of kissing and hugging a good way to show young children love and friendship without corrupting their minds. i would much rather see those weird characters hugging and kissing than most thing we see on childrens tv. some people may find the repeating phrases annoying but it teaches children different sounds very much like the teletubbies did. my two year old son is disabled and has difficulty communicating but since he started to watch it he has been making more sounds and enjoys having them repeated back to him. also the calming voice of derek jacobi makes it a little bit grown up as he is a great actor and adults can relate to him. my husband noticed it before the kids. you get used to the names and songs the more you watch. the voices and repetative phrases become conversational to young kids. it sets their imaginations wild and they have more fun with it. i am sure that any young child who watches it will grow up to be talented in some why. painting, writing, things you have to have an imagination for. thank you for reading my review, i hope you found it useful ashley charles, wife, mother and fan Whoever invented this should be knighted for services to parents!! (18 March 2008)This is a wonderfully imaginative and beautifully created series for pre-school children. This is the only programme that settles my one year old and keeps his attention for ages- NOTHING else works!! He absolutely loves this series and claps his hands whenever it comes on. I particularly like the part of the DVD where everybody "says goodnight" and its a very good, calming way of getting your child to chill out and unwind to bedtime. Even when in the midst of a screaming tantrum, this dvd turns my child from screaming banshee to mild mannered cutie (its a miracle!!). I'm so happy that they released it on dvd and there are now 3 series of which we have all of them. Its delightfully surreal, wonderfuly calming and I just love the fact that classically trained actor derek Jacobi sings "my name is iggle piggle, iggle piggle, iggle piggle wooo- etc"- utterly brilliant! Beautiful!! (07 December 2007)Absolutely beautiful programme. Not sure whether I should be worrying more about my daughters eyesight as she stands an inch away from the screen so as not to miss anthing or the relationship between Iggle Piggle and Upsy Daisy.... (all that kissing, getting into Upsy Daisys bed and private rooms in the Pinky Ponk......!!!) Took the dvd on holiday with us and we watched an episode each evening before bath as we do at home - worked a treat and she (generally!) went down without a problem. Only hitch now, is she has figured out it is bath and bed after Night Garden so once the carousel comes on she immediately become very absorbed in "playing" with just half an eye on the programme so as not to miss anything but also to look very busy!! Anyway, every under 3 should have this dvd - In the Night Garden on tap!!! |
