Summary: Never too young to start
Review: My four-month-old son loves these silly songs! I wanted to use it as a way to introduce him to Veggie Tales ("Why is there a dancing pickle?"). And he immediately loved it. Usually, when I play anything other than his favorite Baby Einstein collection, he just screams and only Baby Mozart will do. But he loves the Ultimate Silly Song Countdown -- the colors, movement, music (especially the silly tones and inflections used). Another plus is that *it isn't annoying for parents to hear*! I know just a few words of the songs, and when I sing them to my son, he gives me a great big smile and laugh. I need to learn more so my husband and I can sign these silly songs all around the house!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Christain stuff!
Review: My friend had this on for her 3-year old and I just loved it! For kids, the songs are cute, catchy and fun, the veggies are silly and catch their attention. The humor is cute for adults, too. So, I don't have kids, but I bought it anyway. It is great to have around for a good laugh...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 5* Quality; Excellent Children Program; Good Messages
Review: My son is 20-month-old. We don't let him watch cartoons that contain witchcraft or violence. We have found "The Ultimate Silly Song Countdown" a good choice for him. Here is why:
- It is wholesome.
- One great song after the other. No waste of time in between.
- Excellent graphics and sound effect.

Some reviewers complained about the duplications of songs (from the previous two silliness videos). For that very reason, one reviewer gives a 3-star rating to this video even though he/she says this video is great.

I believe a good reviewer should be as objective as he/she is possibly be. If this video is 5 star in production, in education, in entertainment, ... whichever category you are looking at, you should give it a 5 star. Don't give a 3 star just because you have bought the previous two videos and you feel you have wasted money on this one. I have seen "The End of Silliness", and this one is much better! Besides, I believe the duplications is intentional. The cover of "Ultimate Silly Song Countdown" says that it is "the top 10 of silliest Silly Songs of all time." Why wouldn't you think songs from the previous two videos are not in this one?

We look forward to the big screen production of Veggie Tales.

P.S. Other wholesome DVD/VHS that we have are:
- Wiggles: Toot, Toot.
- Sesame Street Kids' Favorite Songs.
- Blue's Clues: ABC's and 1, 2, 3's, Rhythm and Blue, Big Musical Movie.
- Barney's Rhyme Time.
- ... etc.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best silly song DVD there is
Review: This is absolutely fantastic. All of the Larry's Silly Songs are in one place. On the DVD, one can listen to the story behind each Silly Song. The DVD also has great easter eggs including a version of the Hairbrush song in Japanese. It is absolutely hilarious.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: And what is YOUR favorite Veggie Tales' Silly Song??
Review: This video is a must-have for Silly Song Fans everywhere.

Hosted by "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything", this is a countdown show from the #10 Silly Song to the #1 favorite Silly Song of all time. The votes (taken on the Veggie Tales website) have been tabulated by the "Astonishing Contraption of Silliness." Occasionally, there is a glitch in the machine, which causes a very mixed-up title, but the Silly Songs on this video will no doubt be YOUR favorites from the Veggie Tales series.

You will get to see 10 full-length Silly Songs. This video is 43 minutes long, about 13 minutes longer than most Veggie Tales videos. If you have children who will want to watch the same songs over and over, obviously the DVD would be a better choice for you!

The only reason I gave this 4 stars and not 5 is that there isn't any really new material. They do have an entertaining format in how they announce the next song, but the songs are all ones that Veggie Tales fans have heard before.

Be watching for Veggie Tales' full-length movie, "Jonah" to appear in theaters in 2002!
