VeggieTales FAVORITES
My son is 2 and 4 months. We recently rented a VeggieTales video from the library ("The Ballad of Little Joe") and my son really seemed to like it. His Gammie said she'd like to buy him a few videos when she comes to town to visit (in three days!). So I'm curious which videos are your toddler's favorites. I see that there are a lot of videos. One was subtitled "Dealing with Peer Pressure" and that's NOT one I'd want to get, as my 2 yr old does't have too much peer pressue to deal with yet.
So please list your young one's favorite Veggie Tales videos.
THANKS in advance!
So What Happened?™
In 8 responses, y'all have mentioned a total of 20 different movies. Sounds like they're all great, then. I went to their website to read the "lesson learned" and might get the one about sharing, or the one about selfishness, as they are topics that my son does have to deal with every once in a while. But it after tallying responses so far, THE PIRATES, KING GEORGE, and SING ALONG have the most 'votes.' THANKS! I can't wait to see if more responses come in.
UPDATE: In 15 responses y'all still seem to agree on the Silly Sing Alongs (which I noticed online there are quite a few DVDs that are silly sing along songs). You also agree that Pirates movie, Jonah, and King George are great. I did look last night in my Family Christian mailer and noticed that pre-ordering the new movie will save me a few dollars, but I get a free triple-feature DVD with it. I also noticed one movie for $5, so that's a deal. I will let Gammie get what she wants for my boy, but will keep note that you guys have some favorites. THANKS!

I don't think I have ever seen a Veggie Tale video that I didn't love. My kids loved every one we had and we still sometimes sing the silly songs (keep in mind my kids are now ages 14 - 23).

The silly song veggie tale videos are really cute and appropriate for 2 year olds, that's when my kids started watching them. I believe they have two or three silly song dvds out by now.

For just pleasure, my kids loved the silly songs, but the story videos try to teach a lesson. Think about the issues that your children are dealing with (bullies, lying, being small, etc.) and you can probably find a Veggie Tales video that matches. My kids also really liked the feature length ones (Jonah and The Pirates Who Don't Do Anyything).

My son is OBSESSED with the Veggie Tales! Seriously, that's all he wants to watch. We have more than you could count, but the sing along ones are really fun since they have the silly songs on them. Also, Jonah and The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything are great. He also loves "Heros of the Bible". It has the Ballad of Little Joe and 2 other stories on it, including "Mo and the Big Exit", which is supposed to be like a sequel to The Ballad of Little Joe. The "God Made You Special" DVD also has 3 stories on it, so you get more bang for your buck, so to speak. I could go on and on, since we own nearly all of them, but you really can't go wrong with any of them. They have one called "Pistachio" that is like the Pinocchio story, but with the veggies...that one is fun too. Again, you can't go wrong with any of them! Have fun! That's about all we watch or listen to anymore since we have lots of their CD's also. But, I don't complain because the message in them can't be beat! :-)
