Pocoyo Boo! - Our Review

Pocoyo Boo! - Our Review
This month Aaron and I got a fun Halloween themed Pocoyo dvd from NCircle Entertainment: Pocoyo Boo!

I know I've said it before but Aaron just loves Pocoyo!  And even though this is a Halloween themed dvd, it's not scary (like some other ones I've seen) so it's perfect for your younger or sensitive kids.  

This dvd has seven (yes, seven!) cartoons with Pocoyo and his friends.  They explore new games by scaring each other (BOO!), play with friendly aliens on their planet, enjoy a monster party, solve mysteries and engage in pretend play with each other.  

Aaron's favorite episode was the first, titled Boo!, in which Pocoyo goes around scaring all his friends by hiding and then jumping out and saying.... you guess it... BOO!  Aaron squealed and laughed every time Pocoyo scared someone.  He thought the episode was just hilarious!

The dvd runs 50 minutes, includes Spanish language and is perfect for all ages.  Aaron and I give it a very spooky two thumbs up!

The SRP is $6.99 and the dvd can be found at retailers near you and at Amazon.com.

Pocoyo's World: Our Review

Pocoyo's World Review
Aaron and I were sent Pocoyo's World by NCircle Entertainment to enjoy and review this month.

First of all, this is an easy sell for both of us because we both love Pocoyo.  Aaron first watched Pocoyo on Univision en Espanol.  I immediately loved the face that Aaron was so interested in something in the Spanish language.  It was simple and easy for him to understand.  Aaron loved the cartoon from the start.

In this new Pocoyo DVD: Pocoyo's World, you enjoy twelve mini adventures with Pocoyo and his friends.  You can watch the dvd in either English or Spanish (we chose Spanish, of course) which is definitely a bonus if you ask me!  If you want your child to get used to the sounds, words and inflections of another language this is the way to do it!  They will still be interested because A) it's a cartoon and B) the Pocoyo series is so easy and simple to understand, with or without your language.  

That's the main reason we like Pocoyo so much.  It's such a simple concept.  It's like playtime in cartoon form.  It helps children to use their imagination, teaches them to share and figure out solutions, all while going on an adventure.

Aaron watched the entire dvd with great pleasure and then immediately wanted to watch it again with his dad when he got home from work.  In fact, Aaron's been watching it all weekendHis favorite episode is A Dog's Life in which Pocoyo takes turns acting like all of his friends.  He even gets up and acts right along with Pocoyo!  

If you've never seen an episode of Pocoyo, I highly recommend taking your kids on an adventure with Pocoyo and his friends Elly the elephant, Pato the duck, Loula the dog and Sleepy Bird the birdy.  It's fun for children of all ages!

Aaron and I both give the new Pocoyo dvd two thumbs up!

You can buy the newest Pocoyo dvd at all major retailers on May 21, 2013.  The disc retails for $12.99.
