Sesame Street: Count It Higher [DVD]

Do you have wonderful memories of watching the VCR-version with your child(ren)? I do and I can't wait to watch this with my granddaughter!Love the Muppets and love the great riffs on classic songs and the puppets are fantastic - especially ZZ Top!!

We don't have a television in our household, but we allow our 2 year-old daughter to watch a few, select videos. When I babysat two young boys (more than 15 years ago), I found this video so entertaining that I made a mental note to track down a copy when I had kids in the future. When I revisited the video in the last year, I was not disappointed. Each of the songs is driven by witty word play and is either inspired by a specific rock tune or a general style of popular music. From the "Beetles" "Letter B" to Ernie's reggae "Do De Rubber Duck," the songs are a lot of fun. I haven't been equally impressed with the other Sesame Street videos we've purchased, but this one is definitely a keeper.

My 1.5-2 yr old LOVES the Count and it can be a little difficult to find Sesame Street items that focus on him since everything is really Elmo focused these days. This DVD uses The Count as the host of a video countdown show as the framing device so she gets lots of time with her favorite muppet. The videos included aren't the numbers focused educational ones, they're music video ones,so they're good for dancing time.

Here's a Sesame Street DVD with good old school songs from the old days. Perfect for young children to watch and dance to. I recommend it as a gift for your child for birthday or Christmas. The song that your child will love on this DVD is "Do Op Hop" by Kermit the Frog. It's a song I danced to as a little boy. I've been sharing this DVD with the young 2nd cousins in my family. Your child will love this Sesame Street DVD also.

My daughters love this video, and to be honest it's one of the only children videos that I can stomach. The video will appeal to adults as well as children. My favorite is the song called "ZZ Blues" and I swear the puppets look and sound just like ZZ Top. It's a cute video.

A blast from the past and on DVD! Fun to sing along with. My son remembers this from his childhood. Now he gets to share this G rated memory with his child.

Well, based on the title of this DVD I thought it would actually be about counting and numbers. I was looking for something to help my 2 year old with his counting.It's actually a "COUNT DOWN" of Sesame Street music videos hosted by The Count.In all honesty, it's a good DVD. Entertaining enough for my little ones. My son and daughter and even the baby all dance and jump up and down from beginning to end to the music on the DVD.The only real counting is in the last song called, "Count it Higher" which is very fun, lively, and upbeat...but it doesn't really in my opinion, help teach counting very well.I guess if you're looking for a fun video that will get your kids dancing, this is a good choice.

I bought this for my granddaughter who is 3 years old. She watches it in the car, she sings along with the music. She can now count to 15 and recognize numbers 1 thru 10. I would highly recommend this DVD for your little ones.
