The GiggleBellies Musical Adventures Volume #2

I discovered the GiggleBellies on YouTube several months ago and my daughter and I fell in love with them instantly. Sure, they are a bit creepy or weird looking at first, but they really grew on us. We have all three dvds and will definitely purchase the 4th when released. I love all the songs on every volume. They are very catchy and I occasionally find myself singing them when no one else is around :)We started out with volume 1 and the lullaby video and they were perfect for my 12-18 month old. We just received volume 2 and have watched it several times. It's definitely a bit more advanced and interactive and perfect for my 18 month old. Our favorites from volume 2 are "head, shoulders, knees, and toes", "if you're happy and you know it" and "busy bumble bee". My little one gleefully says "ahooga!" along with the GiggleBellies and the rainbow song is perfect because she has just started learning her colors.The GiggleBellies series is super high quality from start to finish and more than worth the ticket price. If you are on the fence, I say go for it!

We first came across the Gigglebellies when my son was 4months old. We found it by accident on youtube and we were hooked! It's the only thing that would calm him when he was crying or sad. We got him volume 1 for christmas last year, and we ordered this one (volume 2) for christmas this year. I was a little afraid as I am in Cyprus this year and wasn't sure how long it would take to come or in what condition it would turn up, but I needn't have worried. It only took 9days to arrive and was in perfect condition! Now its all wrapped up under the tree!I'm not the kind of mother who allows her child to watch television as I'm a firm believer in actually taking the time to play with your children However, I also believe that watching a very minimal amount each day while you spend 20minutes in the kitchen will not harm them and the colourful animations and great songs of the Gigglebellies are perfect for him to spend that time and great for me to sing along to while I'm in the kitchen!! Can't wait for more Gigglebellies!

My wife and I really liked Volume 1 of the Gigglebellies and decided to buy Volume 2 because we liked the Itsy Bitzy Spider song on YouTube. At first run through I still liked the Vol 1 better but my 2 year old daughter absolutly loves Vol 2 especiallyItsy Bitsy SpiderThe Really Cool Space TeamWorking On the RailroadBuckyBut after several repeated viewings I now really enjoy the whole CD. Where the first CD had Peanut as one its main characters this edition has Bucky the horse and a koala bear. Of course Fritz, KissyMoo,Chippy, Nanas Peanut and several other characters from the first Volume make appearances. I never did get the giraffes name. Even the songs and rhymes you never heard of are catchy and memorable. Fly Away With Me is a beautiful send off song to end the DVD.Overall I would highly recommend this DVD to children of any age. Adults will love it to, especially Bucky. Who could not love Bucky the horse. You'll be singing "Bucky, Bucky Rides On" for days to come.

I originally was hearing a sound distortion on this DVD in the voice tracks. The GiggleBellies folks were awesome and corresponded with me to get more information, and they replaced the DVD and send an envelope to reclaim the old one. After a lot of comparative examination, I found that the original played perfectly on my laptop, and had the greatest distortion on my LG television that had ClearVoice II technology (voice enhancement). I am guessing the distortion on the other two televisions may have been an "unemphasized" feature of those TV's to enhance voices...but I found I could turn off the ClearVoice II and the music and voice tracks were true and fun. I really appreciated the excellent service and care the GiggleBellies folks took to address my issue and look forward to their next Volumes! This 2nd Vol also features the endless loop of play...which is handy for some parents-- though I enjoy my baby "announcing" with her slight whimper that the last song is playing and I choose to restart it for her or to give her something different for variety.

We found GiggleBellies on You Tube and our son fell in love with it. At first we were skeptical since some of the animals are odd looking but that became part of the likability of it. Whenever we put on the DVD he lights up and dances along to the tunes. I would recommend introducing this at 1 year so they can get used to the songs. Our son is now 19 month and still gets excited when he hears the giggle in the beginning of the DVD. It's also great to have in the background when your baby is eating just to distract and get around some tantrums during mealtime.

GBs have yet again brought out a fantastic beautiful educational adventure for pre-schoolers. My son loves the first one and the second he sings and dances the whole way through and always asks for it to be on again. From America to the UK it works out about £14 this is a bargain as in return I receive 20 mins in the day where I can actually get things done! the dvd works in UK players too and has extra content like colouring pages and Mp3s of all the songs that are easily transferred to a cd or Mp3 player leaving little one happy when you're not around a tv. The GBs creators know exactly how to entertain with their cute characters, beautiful colours and catchy songs. They are also a delight to deal with and will answer any emails you send. When number 3 comes out I'll be first in line. X
