Movie Reviews of Hi-5: Move Your BodyMovie Review: The AMERICAN Hi-5 is QUALITY entertainment Summary: 5 Stars
We have been following the American Hi-5 for several years. As noted in another review of this product, there is also an Australian Hi-5. Some people only know the Australian cast and like anything - what you first learned is probably what you like best. Well, for us, the AMERICAN Hi-5 is the only Hi-5 we know and they are wonderful. Some people might compare them to the Wiggles in the type of children's show that they deliver since it is all "real" people performing as opposed to animation. However, unlike the Wiggles, the cast of Hi-5 is very diverse both in ethnicity and gender. It is wonderful to see a diverse cast harmonize so well in their songs and play so well together in their skits.
If you are unsure whether Hi-5 is for your children or not, you can watch them on Discovery Kids or the Learning Channel early in the morning on weekdays. Check your listings for the exact time since it changes from time to time.
I would just like to add that we have met the cast of Hi-5 a few times in the past when they performed in Malls and at amusement parks. Each of the cast members are genuinely interested in the children for whom they are performing. There is no doubt that the children are why they do what they do. They are starting to tour again now and if you can see them perform anywhere near you I think your children will love the show.
Movie Review: Best $15 ever spent Summary: 5 Stars
My 22 month old absolutely LOVES this DVD. She carries it around with her everywhere (the case has a cute handle). Although I don't like my daughter to watch too much TV and I am not an advocate of the "TV as a babysitter" idea, I am a big fan of this particular program. Hi-5 encourages movement, physical activity, and singing while teaching their young audience about colors, moods, animals, etc. The cast is a group of high-energy, upbeat, professionally-trained vocalists (many of whom have appeared on Broadway) who really relate to children. Your child will not be able to sit still while watching - I often find my daughter trying to mimic the characters and she loves when other little children are show. This DVD is the equivalent to 3 TV-length Hi-5 shows. My only warning would be that these songs are REALLY catchy and you will find yourself humming them even when your child isn't around.
Movie Review: My children love this DVD and I do too!!! Summary: 5 Stars
My 5 and 3 year old girls have been Hi-5 fans for several years now since we first discovered them on TLC. We are soooo happy to see these new DVD's coming out, I hope there will be more to come. My children learn so much and get up and move around while watching these DVD's...definitley not couch potato music!! My one year old has even started dancing to it as well! One of the best things about the music from this group is that parents won't get sick of it like some other kids groups. The songs are well written and humorous so that adults can withstand sitting through watching them over and over and over!!! :)
Movie Review: My grandson's favorite gift! Summary: 5 Stars
My grandson loves me best because I gave him this video for Christmas. George is only 16 months old but he has watched Hi-5 since before age 1 and copies all the moves, and dances and sings to it. When he opened the video, we didn't even think he would realize what it was. He put his hand up in the air and yelled Hi-5 with the biggest smile in the world. When we played it, his parents commented that it had a lot more material than the TV show and showed considerbly more interaction with the children. George was mesmerized. It's a hit with me.
Movie Review: Get up & dance!! Summary: 5 Stars
We love Hi-5!! Each episode not only educates your child (on subjects like food, senses, animals, etc.) but really gets the kids up and moving. It is very hard for a child to watch this show without getting up and dancing, clapping, & singing with the Hi-5 gang. This show also puts emphasis on social skills like friendship, manners, and self-esteem. We really like the new packaging on these dvds, it just adds a bit more to the fun of Hi-5. They have a handle so the kids can carry them around--great for taking to grandma's!!
