TV on DVD Review of the Week: Curious George - Zoo Night and Other Animal Stories

by Kjersti Wasiak

Curious George - Zoo Night and Other Animal Stories is a great DVD that actually sticks to its theme of animals. These are fun adventures with Curious George the monkey and his curiosity leading to animal themed adventures. This is a good DVD for preschoolers who like Curious George to enjoy when it is not live on television. Plus it is a great option for kids that are particularly into seeing more animals than just the monkey.

In total there are 8 episodes on this DVD. In the first episode called “Zoo Night” several different animals are seen including penguins, but it is the baby panda that is the main featured animal in this episode. Other animals seen in this DVD’s episodes include bunnies in “Curious George’s Bunny Hunt,” a bear in “Bee is for Bear,” pigeons in “Curious George’s Home for Pigeons,” a cat “”From Scratch,” dogs in “Curious George, Dog Counter,” squirrels in “Squirrel for a Day,” and frogs in “Curious George Discovers the ‘Poles.”

Special Features wise this DVD is not too bad. It has two DVD games. One is called Daily Donuts Game and the other is called Magic Numbers Game. It also has some printable coloring pages that can be accessed when you put the DVD into a computer, however, when I tried to get them off the DVD using a Mac I found it quite confusing to find and download them.

Overall I recommend Curious George - Zoo Night & Other Animal Stories as a good DVD release for fans of Curious George because it has a good amount of episodes. Plus it has two decent DVD games as special features, although the coloring special feature is not well incorporated.
