Green movies for kids

New eco-DVD teaches kids about taking care of the planet.

Check out this trailer for a new eco-DVD that hit the market this spring.  Mr. Furry Fur Fur and His Friendly Earth Friends is an ecofriendly DVD for kids ages 3 to 6. The premier episode features a sweet group of animal friends celebrating their favorite tree.  From their website:
Have you ever wondered how old that tree is in your backyard? Or how about the trees in your neighborhood park? In their first adventure together, Mr. Furry Fur Fur and his friendly Earth friends throw a surprise party and use their creativity and brainpower to find out how old their friend Tree is. By working together, they learn how to turn their curiosity into real knowledge.

This DVD not only is great to view but truly is eco-conscious. Also, the character puppets interaction which conveys the message to encourage children to explore, learn and grow from their natural environment makes this a classic DVD!

I got this for my kids because I thought it looked entertaining and had a positive message. My kids are crazy about it! They not only sing the songs and ask to watch it over and over again but they also learned a lot about nature and how to take care of the planet. They even told my neighbor that they aren't recycling enough of their garbage. I highly recommend it!

This show is really amazing! I got it for the kids in my family and they really loved it. Even as an adult I found it entertaining to watch! It has a positive message and a fun and creative way of bringing it across not at all preachy!
I highly Recommend this DVD!!
