DVD Reviews of Start Smarter Presents: Firefighter George and Today's Mighty Trains with Train Safety!
DVD Review: Mighty videos
Summary: 5 Stars
Last Christmas, we bought our Grandson the Firefighter George Firetruck series because he loves firetrucks. He hasn't stopped watching them, so we were encouraged to "please buy something different so we can stop watching this video"! I figured we would get the same result with the firefighter Train and we were right on. We also purchased the airplane video. Next year we will be buying the rest of the collection on trains.
These videos are not only quirky and high energy for a child's attention, they are extemely educational. If your child loves trains, this is a must for you.
DVD Review: Great product--highly recommended
Summary: 5 Stars
Wow do we love firefighter George at our house. My 2 year old can't get enough of this video. I think this is the best of the Start Smarter series, though all are really superior to most children's videos. This one about trains has lots of exciting footage of big trains blowing whistles and going through tunnels. They even show you animals getting on an off a circus train, which gets my son yelling with excitement. The safety bits are delivered in very concrete, easy to understand language that even my little one understands (the proof being in the pudding, when we last rode a mini train he lectured me on how we should stay "FAR FAR away from the tracks"). Very well done.DVD Review: Engaging for kids!
Summary: 5 Stars
My 2 1/2 year old LOVES this DVD and all the others in the series, too. He watches them over and over and has learned a lot about trains and train safety (and so have I). He actually sits down and watches this from start to finish (not easy for a 2 year old!) Firefighter George is now one of his favorite people. I also recommend the Firefighter George & The FSU Circus Teach Nutrition DVD. My son is learning about the foods that are healthy and has actually eaten more fruits and vegetables because of this DVD. It's a great series for kids.

Summary: 5 Stars
Wonderful DVD for the Train enthusiast. The whole Firefighter George series are very well done and informative. My five-year old Grandson loves them. He wore out his video tapes so I bought him DVD replacements.DVD Review: toddler loves this video
Summary: 4 Stars
will buy more from this series! Production quality is not the very best - but still good enough to captivate my 2.5 yr old. He loves seeing the trains up close and we also have the Firefighter George steam trains dvd. Parts of this dvd are above his age level (the dvd IS divided into sections for younger and older "junior engineers") but he loves the chapter about the really long circus train and seeing the elephants and animals get off and on the train. (That section is much too short we have to replay it over and over!) and he loves the sections describing all the different types of cars on a train especially the caboose section (cant figure why thats his favorite!) But we get daily "wanna watch the caboose, mama!" requests. I hope he will also grow into the "older junior engineers" sections of this dvd - and I'm sure this will continue to be a favorite in our house for awhile...
Description of Start Smarter Presents: Firefighter George and Today's Mighty Trains with Train Safety!
ANOTHER AWARD-WINNING VIDEO BY START SMARTER, WINNER OF DR. TOY'S 100 BEST CHILDREN'S PRODUCTS IN 2003, 2004 & 2005. DR. TOY'S 10 BEST SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE TOYS, 2003 & 2005. TEN BEST VIDEOS 2004 & OPPENHEIM'S GOLD BEST DVD AWARD 2006. The folks at Start Smarter continue to win awards for their Firefighter George series: Dr. Toy and the Institute for Childhood Resources recently named "Today's Mighty Trains" one of the 10 Best Children's Videos of the Year. That's an understatement. Firefighter George is joined by Firefighter Christy as they introduce a group of junior engineers to modern railroading. The kids learn about diesel-electric locomotives and the different types of freight cars, and watch the engineer at work. Then they observe the operator in an electric transit vehicle - and learn to watch out for the third rail. The firefighters also take the kids for a visit to the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus Train, and on an Amtrak train - including! inside the kitchen. More than anything, the video teaches kids to expect the unexpected and stay a safe distance away. This is easily the most intelligent approach to introducing kids to trains that I've seen. - Kathi KubeALSO, DON'T MISS HERE AT AMAZON.COM "FIREFIGHTER GEORGE AND SUPER STEAM TRAINS", "FIREFIGHTER GEORGE AND FIRE ENGINES-VOLUME 1", "FIREFIGHTER GEORGE AND FIRE ENGINES-VOLUME 2", AND "FIREFIGHTER GEORGE AND AMAZING AIRPLANES!"
