All About 8 Pack Volume 2: Police, Fire Engines, Military, The Post Office, Building, Astronauts, Helicopters, Garbage & Recycling

My son LOVES the All About series. I've since bought it as a gift for a friend's son that loves trucks, planes, helicopters, etc. and he is also obsessed with these. They are very cheesy and EXTREMELY out of date, but kids really don't care. This one being about all the different types of transportation vehicles is great for boys, I just wish they'd come out with newer versions of this b/c the concept is great. However, I put it on his portable DVD player and at least I don't have to watch it. :) All in all the All About series is really great.

I watched a few episodes, and everyone should know that this is a well-intentioned, and educational, but very low-rent bunch of programs. I haven’t researched the origins, but it looks like a public access show.It’s a good to reinforce topics my daughter is learning at school, so this DVD comes in handy for that. The lack of action and short episode length makes it a good program to watch before bed time. That being said, I much prefer the Reading Rainbow and Mister Rogers Neighborhood DVD sets for this purpose.

My two year old loves this series. His current favorite is Garbage & Recycling, but Helicopters and Police Cars are right up there too. Yes, they are a little cheezy. All About Fire Engines reminds me of a Phil Hartman (RIP) sketch, and it cracks me up. But after months of watching them, they've grown on me, and I even find Hard Hat Harry funny. I'm so happy this series is available for my little ones to watch; I have a hard time stomaching most children's programming.The way the disc is set up leaves a little to be desired--no auto play, no auto repeat, no play all options are available. I don't think it's a big deal though, and it certainly doesn't detract from the viewing experience or my little one's enjoyment of it.

If you have a little one who likes motorized vehicles you can't go wrong here. I just drop one star because some of the sets are a bit missed matched, with ponies right next to Hummers and that sort of thing. But very cheap and a great value.

i know a 5 year old who is going to be super excited to open this,hard to resist opening and viewing myself but the price was good and it arrived in a timely fashion so already im a fan

Son loves it

My son loves the DVD collection All About. He is watching it pretty much every day. In fact he has learned so much from the videos that I am truly amazed. I was very skeptical initially because his interests were never toward any educational videos, but these DVD collection keeps his interests and teaches him at the same time.

My 3 1/2 year old son loves these shows. They are a mix of reality and fantasy but he loves identifying vehicles wherever we go. He sings the opening theme song everywhere and we have sought out all the episodes. Even though they are cheezy from the early-mid nighties, it takes you back as a parent seeing all the less advanced everyday items used as props. Many of the episodes are in Netflix but we get these so we have his favorites at hand.
