Pocoyo: Meet Pocoyo

We have a 3 1/2 year old that spends some time in our home. We catch the 10 minute episodes of Pocoyo on PBS on occasion, and he just loves them, but they only come on twice a day. I thought it would be fun to have a video for rainy or boring days in the house. We really enjoyed this dvd. The cartoon is quite cute, entertaining, and fun, even for adults. The stories are short, so they keep the kids' attention, and they always have a wonderful little moral (like sharing, working together, helping a friend, etc.). And, unlike some of the popular cartoons or shows, they're not annoying or tiresome for adults to watch. I have shown this show to several children, both boys and girls, and ages 6 months to 5 years, and they all enjoy this show. I purchased 4 Pocoyo dvds at once, and ended up giving two of them to a girlfriend who has a toddler and runs a child day care from her home, and she and her kids love them, as well! And again, they range in age from a few months old to almost kindergarten. She loves that, on a rainy or housebound day, it catches and keeps the kids' attention, they laugh, play along, and really enjoy the stories. I didn't notice when I was considering purchasing this dvd, but there are several stories/skits on each dvd, which adds up to an hour (or more) per dvd. I wasn't certain, since the shows are only 10 minutes on tv, so that's why I purchased 4 dvds. But, since they are each so long and have so many shows on each one, that is why I gifted two of them to my friend. I knew her kids would enjoy them and she would make good use of them. Great purchase!

While children's entertainment is cluttered with mediocre to poor properties, this series stands out as head and shoulders above the pack. Built on simple and entertaining story lines, each with a message that avoids topics that smack of being "politically correct", Pocoyo episodes are good stories with a good message. All that is needed. The design of this series hits a bullseye with clarity, simplicity, and appeal. The animation is solid and has loads of playful energy. Simple, good, and fun. Pocoyo: Meet Pocoyo and Pocoyo: Pocoyo and Friends are well worth the price. In fact, you don't need kids to enjoys these stories. Why this isn't widely available on television in the US one can only guess. Perhaps top Execs in the US are worried they would end up with an audience of smart kids who expect quality.

My 2-year-old daughter LOVES Pocoyo. She watches it every day on Nick Jr. after Wow Wow Wubbzy as a pre-nap treat, but it's just one little episode per day and the only way to record and watch it is to record the previous or following show and fast forward or rewind to Pocoyo. This DVD is perfect! She can watch it on long car rides or just watch it at home without me having to constantly rewind and fast forward. Such a great show. I love the animation, and my husband thinks Pato is hilarious when he dances. Fun for the whole fam, and without annoying voices or images (definitely not like Dora...phew!)

My wife and I purchased this DVD after seeing Pocoyo on Nick Jr, and wanting more. The show is lighthearted, upbeat, and colorful. The stark contrast between the characters and the blank backdrop is fantastic. The mannerisms of the characters make small children love them. Each episode is rather short at about 7 minutes, but that's fine, because it keeps the writing tight. Also, it's fine when your child wants to watch "one more", since the length of time is so short. This is one of those rare shows that both parents and children enjoy. Specifically to this collection, there were not any episodes I recognized, but my family still enjoyed all of them.

This show is colorful and easy to follow for small children. The lessons are simple and an example of good values which is rare these days on television with all of the mindless, worthless cartoons out there. My son loves it and laughs with the characters, I feel good because he is also getting a good lesson! I have recommended this to all of my friends with young children.

Just received the two DVDs ordered - after two delays they now appear to be in stock. Am happy to have them BUT unlike the other region DVDs, this only has 7 stories - the others have been issued with 13 so I am feeling a little cheated. (Amazon's website did not list any details when I ordered). The stories included are: The Big Sneeze Drum Roll Please Umbrella, Umbrella A Mystery Most Puzzling Double Bubble Sleepy Bird's Surprise Swept Away I also think (compared to the Euro version) that these have been edited and shortened (but it's been a while since I saw the others so I might be mistaken). The quality is good and the stories are still entertaining. Just be aware that you're not buying the 1/2 season per DVD. The show itself is lovely - the backgrounds are plain white so the individual characters and props are easily seen. The stories are about friendship, sharing and caring and can easily be understood by the 3+ crowd.

The writing and the narrator's delivery of the lines are witty and smart. The stories have little lessons without being heavy or preachy. The animation is simple but not that lazy, too flatly drawn type of simple (like creepy Hopla); the movements of the characters are highly expressive despite their simplicity. My 2 year old son laughs and laughs at Pocoyo. He understands and appreciates that Pocoyo is his peer, a very young boy too. My son calls him "baby".

I have not seen this or have had a chance to ask my daughter how my grandson liked it...he loves Pororo so thought he might like this one...unfortunately the Pororo dvds were sold out at Christmas. This was my second choice.

Great for kids learning a 2nd language.

È un DVD zona 1 che qui in Italia non si può vedere. Nella descrizione non c'è scritto altrimenti non lo avrei comprato. Sconsigliato

DVD機器の規格を確認せずに、買ってしまいました。再生できず、結局アメリカ在住の友人にあげました。日本規格品の『スペイン語』版はあるのかしら・・・？

Tres horas de Pocoyo es perfecto par los viajes. Buena imagen y sonido. Dibujos iguales que en la televisión, muy bien.

We just love Pocoyo and this was a great buy
