its damaged
well we got a set of 3 dvd of the magic school bus. they all have a small defect and at some stage get blurry and stuck. its disappointing to buy like this while we were counting on Amazon accountability.

Educational and entertaining
This set was recommended by a friend so I knew that I wanted them when I looked on Amazon.
My son (nearly 4) is entertained by these, he sometimes asks to watch them instead of Cbeebies or Toy Story etc.
At his age I sometimes wonder if he is applying the educational facts to the real world but I'm sure that will come.
So in short he likes them and they are educational, you can't go far wrong can you?
