Default A Day with Horses

Customer Review: Fun & educational but recording is of poor quality
This is a lighthearted, fun and lively video showing the daily care of horses. My two toddlers adore horses, and I couldn't wait to pop this tape in to capture their attention with live action. Though the scenes are authentic and there is much to learn from the animal's characteristics to how to bathe and brush them, the picture quality is so poor that it makes watching it in its entirey a real chore. There is a graininess to the video that doesn't change on smaller screens, so basically you won't enjoy watching along with your kids. The actors in the film deliver their lines in a way that truly seems rehearsed from script, but this won't matter to kids since they speak clearly and in simple to understand language. The music is very sweet too. They also incorporate special needs children in the film, which is a refreshing change. It's just too bad the film company didn't record on a faster speed tape to ensure clarity.
Customer Review: Clip Clop the Horse
I got this video for my kids to learn more about Horses since I am allergic to them. Both my sons are on the autism spectrum with the non verbal son really enjoying the songs on the video and how they take care of the horses. The pace is slow and repetitious, but in this instance that was good. This is more geared to the very young child, preschooler to first grader perhaps. The story is more about the Horse than watching Horses jump and race. Horses up close and personal is a better video.
