"Kipper: Pools, Parks and Picnics"

Its stories and characters are refreshing in today's fast-paced world. It has a simple animation that will be a relief from all the flashy, fast-paced cartoons. We think this lack of complexity is what first caught our daughter's attention. It isn't violent, it isn't demeaning, and it is worth every cent. I never get tired of watching it with my daughter and how many children's shows can you say that about. At 15 months, she still loves it. We own four of the Kipper DVD's now and love every one of them, but Pools, Parks, and Picnics is one of my personal favorites.


Kipper is a Keeper!   April 26, 2004
We've been watching Kipper since we discovered him and his pals when we lived in the UK. They are the most non-intrusive, hilarious, precious, and pleasant children's shows. We've got the whole collection, this one being one of our favorites. Strangely enough they don't get on one's nerves after you've heard it in the back of the car for hours on end. That's because, one, the dvds are very long and, two, the music and voices are pleasant to listen to. We've loaned our tapes and DVDs to many of our friends and haven't found a kid yet that didn't love Kipper, Tiger, Pig, Arnold and Sock Thing. The other bonus is Kipper's voice is done by the one and only Martin Clunes.


Hooray for Kipper! One the best kid videos.   April 11, 2004
When I was browsing at a local store to find a gift for my niece, then 2 years old, I was attracted to the cute, cuddly creatures on the cover of this video. I bought it and watched it with my niece and we both enjoyed it a lot. I have seen many kid videos my niece owned and I find this the most educational, gentle and creative of them all. The cartoons are draw in a watercolor fashion of soft tones and simple colors. The images are uncluttered which helps the young mind to focus on the actions of the characters and their immediate surroundings - a rare treasure for small children today who are constantly bombarded with chaotic media blitz and hyperactive cartoons. The story lines are based on everyday children's activities, which makes them easy to relate to for little children - such as picnicking in the park, playing with friends, outdoor explorations, etc. I have since bought 3 more of the series and am planning to collect them all for my niece. I highly recommend Kipper to parents of young children as a great alternative to the many unhealthy, violent cartoons out there and I assure you, you'll enjoy this cartoon as much as your kids.

After hearing so many stupid songs and weird voices and annoying lyrics, Kipper is without a doubt a breath of fresh air..my daughter begun showing an interest in the video at 18 months (before this wouldn't hold her attention- too complex)...now at 33 mos., she loves him and I love her to love them...the videos are calm, gentle with cute non violent characters..... the story lines can relate to kids....I have the VHS version which is fine....Everytime she asks to see Teletubbies or something equally as anoying, I try to get her to see one of her 3 Kipper videos instead.....Love those sweeet Brit accents too! : ) I also like that the video is long...not like some 20-30 min. deals....
