Here's a Cookie you can feel good about giving to your child July 29, 1999 81 out of 82 found this review helpful
When Cookie Monster comes into your home on this video, trust me -- he's coming in to stay. I bought this video for my son when he was 6 months old because I thought he might like the music and the bright colors. From the first time I turned it on, he's been, to say the least, fascinated with it. The kicker is, so am I. So is my husband. So is the babysitter. From beginning to end, it's absolutely enchanting. The script and song lyrics are, by turns, clever and corny, but always charming. And believe me, those songs stick in your head long after the tape has run out! From the time-honored anthem, "C Is for Cookie" to the last song on the tape, a sorrowful little country ballad in which Cookie Monster bids his cookie adieu before he eats it, we are transported to the magical world of the muppets, where lessons of friendship, sharing, problem-solving, and patience are all neatly hidden within silliness and fun. As Cookie struggles to bake cookies for the bakery he's working in, he gives us little pieces of cookie monster wisdom -- "If you bake it, they will come." My son is now 11 months old. I let him watch this video every night before bed. He claps and bounces the minute he sees me take the tape out of the box. He stares, transfixed as the FBI warning and the Sony Wonder logo go by, and I could swear he's holding his breath. And then, as Cookie Monster magically appears on the screen, he laughs out loud. For 45 minutes, that kid doesn't move, except to glance at me occasionally with a big smile on his face as if to say, "Isn't this great?!" I worried at first that at the time my child is learning to talk, he's also idolizing a monster who, I'm pretty sure, has never uttered a grammatically correct sentence in his little muppet life -- it's the only complaint I have about the whole thing. On the other hand, if you rely on television characters to teach your child how to talk, you've got bigger problems than a few badly-placed pronouns, right?
A not-bad video for Cookie Monster fans. May 11, 1998 HOOPERFAN@prodigy.net (United States) 5 out of 14 found this review helpful
While this pales in comparison to "Big Bird Sings", there are some classics found here. Of course, "C Is for Cookie" is here, but that's on a lot of other SS videos as well. This is basically for the die-hard SS fan, or for those who just love the Cookie Monster. END
