Movie Reviews of Prehistoric Planet - The Complete Dino Dynasty
Movie Review: Great for Very Young Paleontologists!
Summary: 5 Stars
Before purchasing any items here on Amazon, I always read reviews (I love this feature). I appreciate informative, insightful reviews of the item. That said, ratings based on "slow shipping", "bad sellers" or "poor service" do not help me. I like to know about the actual product. Ultimately I DID order this DVD based on the many [helpful] reviews - both positive and negative - especially the ones from other toddler parents. One particular review that finally sold me was by "Alexis N.": "ignore bashing", "reworked for younger audience", "great for young kids". Just what I was looking for!
My 3-year-old son is enamored with dinosaurs, sharks and reptiles. We recently took a loooong road trip and I wanted something to keep him entertained during possible boring stretches. Boy, did this keep him more than occupied! I cannot say enough good things about this DVD. Unexpectedly, not only was he entertained, but he learned SO much! In fact, he has taught both Mom & Dad more than we ever knew about them. :0) My son appreciates the fact that it isn't "cartoony" (he says he likes "real ones Mommy, not pretend") and Mom likes that it is not gory or scary.
If you are looking for a realistic dinosaur series without the blood & guts, this is it. For the older, elementary school-aged child, it does not use overly child-like terms but at the same time, it is still narrated in a way that a much younger [pre-K] child could follow along. I was very impressed when my 3-year-old told me all about the Liopleurodon and how it lived in the "Jurassic". So he thinks "Jurassic" is a city in "Dino World", heh, he's only 3! :0) Admittedly, I had never heard of the Liopleurodon and honestly had chalked it up to a toddler's active imagination or at least, a problem pronouncing the actual species. Come to find out, he had pronounced it correctly and it existed! I am delighted that he has learned so much from a DVD. And bottom-line: he absolutely LOVES the series and enjoys it immensely, as evidenced in his watching it over and over and over and over. It was the ONLY DVD he continually asked for the entire 2-day drive! And he still watches/asks for it, unlike the many other toys/games/DVDs we've shelved, *sigh*. I highly recommend this series for any budding Paleontologist and/or Dino-enthusiast in the toddler/elementary school age range (or an amateur, Dino-clueless adult like myself, haha). Kudos BBC!
