Gift from Grandma is a HIT with 2 year old!
My mom sent my daughter this video since she recently had a baby brother join our family and my mom thought our daughter would relate to this turtle. (In this video Franklin's mother is pregnant with a second child and Franklin has to deal with his excitement, fears and jealousy about that, and there are other nice lessons to learn in the video via the Green Knight story, too.) I doubted very much that she would "get" the connection and I don't know for sure whether she has or not, but this is now her number one favorite video, over the former standards Elmo and Bear in the Big Blue House! It is long, but she loves it and pays attention to the entire thing every time. I love the smiles on her face and her little chuckles as the story progresses; she truly loves the Franklin character. We've had it less than a month and she has watched it at least 15 times (and I really limit her daily dose of TV; she just picks this one everyday). Right now I'm shopping for another...
I'm 12 and I ..kinda of like it .
OK I am 12 and turning 13 next year ,but I can't get the songs like Brothers And Sisters .The movie is good even for kids my age I think the series is ok but yet the movie is fantastic.So if you have a 10 -12 year old who knows?Maybe they'll like it.Rent It that's all I'm saying .
Franklin's Feature
My 4 1/2 year old LOVES it. The first day he watched it 5 times. Not bad for an austic child who dosen't sit still. Not for the very young because of the length (75 mins)Great songs and a wonderful message. For the older child who is going to be big brother or sister this is a great video to watch then talk about what it will be like to be that big brother/sister.
