This DVD has a few Bonus Materials. It includes Monkey Snow Job in which you help George pick items that will help him stand on the snow, Monkey Bubbles in which you count how many bubbles George’s bath toy ribbits out, and printable coloring pages as a DVD-ROM feature.
Overall this is an okay DVD release for fans of the show. The winter/snow theme is kind of minimal, but at least the DVD does have a good amount of episodes and a few special features.
