    MY THOUGHTS:

    My boys love Wubbzy and his friends, and really what’s not to love.  There is cute music and the show is so bright and colorful.  Everything looks so modern and cool in Wuzzleburg!  Well in this one Wubbzy meets some dinosaurs which is awesome sine my 3 year old is in a dinosaur phase right now.  As always there are great themes going on including working together, being prepared, honesty, and friends.  The DVD is a decent length and even though we have seen these separate episodes before, it is nice to have these themed ones together.  Escape from Dino Island is great for both dinosaur lovers and/or Wubbzy lovers!

      Well, I know that my daughter loves the DVD Wubbzy Goes BOO because her grampa bought it for her this past Halloween. She especially loves the dance party that is on it, and she dances along with it. It is quite the hilarious sight to see.
