Stanley - Hop to It description
Playhouse Disney's preschool cartoon features Stanley Griff, an endearing kid with an enormous imagination who learns about life through his love of animals. Each of the four stories presents a pintsize "messy" dilemma and unfolds a solution that showcases a particular critter. For example, in "Kangaroo Clean Up," a cluttered bedroom seems impossible to straighten until Stanley learns about the hop-to-it methods of a kangaroo. In "The Big Spill," a tipped bowl of milk ignites the boy's curiosity to consider the slurping habits of an anteater. Whether learning to hang out like a sloth or march like an army of ants, Stanley's tutorials become hands-on adventures when he jumps into the pages of his handy hardback, The Great Big Book of Everything. He is instantly transported to the savannah or jungle with his sidekick, Dennis, a good-natured goldfish who offers sage advice. Sweet without being sappy, Stanley is a breath of fresh air in the realm of children's programming. (Ages 2 to 7) --Lynn Gibson |

Fantastic

| Everyone is certainly entitled to their opinion, but I have to say that I don't understand the negative review above. I borrowed this one at the library for my two older kids (ages 4 and 5) and they absolutely love it. Personally I think it's one of the best combinations of entertainment and educational childrens' series available (for that reason I like Blues Clues a lot too - for younger kids) - the show has led to all kinds of questions the kids have come up with spontaneously e.g. about geography (where is South America, Australia etc.) - so we've studied our globe as a result....and it has helped the kids learn all kinds of neat stuff and terminology about animals. If I had simply told them these things they would have gone in one ear and out the other, but Stanley has a fun way of being educational "through the back door" - I highly recommend this series (we homeschool and so I'm always looking for fun ways to teach the kids). I'm hoping our library will purchase some more! |
