Amazon.com:
Kipper, a loveable, animated dog with a British accent, is on par with perennial preschool favorites Little Bear and Clifford, humble characters involved in ordinary play while reinforcing messages of cooperation, courtesy, and kindness. Drawn in simple lines with floppy ears, Kipper is the creation of England's Mick Inkpen, a prolific children's author (of Threadbear and Wibbly Pig fame) whose books have inspired a Nick Jr. television series. Pools, Parks and Picnics is a collection of seven episodes from the series, with straightforward names like 'The Long Walk,' 'The Swimming Pool,' and 'The Picnic.' The gentle tales are comfortably paced, accompanied by a soft instrumental soundtrack. In 'The Gizmo,' a bubble blower and a toy boat provide hours of entertainment for Kipper and his pal, Tiger, during an otherwise quiet day. In 'Cakes and Tails,' Pig agrees to share his triple chocolate cake with Kipper, until a game of hide-and-seek ends in a plateful of crumbs. A magnifying glass offers an up-close look at the wonders of nature in one episode; in another, a water fountain provides cool relief on a hot summer day. There are no crises and no moral dilemmas here. Rather, the sweet antics of childhood are mixed with the fun of friendship and the simplicity of play. Will the characters' British voiceovers play to young American audiences? Youngsters unfamiliar with the King's English may find the accents a bit distracting at first, yet, more likely, delightfully intriguing. (Ages 2 to 5) --Lynn Gibson

Rating: - Kipper - Pools, Parks, & Picnics
We LOVE Kipper. We had a couple of videos when my daughter was a toddler and when we pulled them out for our son, he fell in love. Even adults can watch these videos over and over. (Unlike most Pre-K videos) The music is a wonderful, jazzy, soundtrack. I find myself singing "Kipper the dog..." at work. We have Kipper books too. I would highly recommend ANYTHING Kipper.
Rating: - Kipper is the best!
My four year old granddaughter loves the Kipper DVD's. She watches them over and over and just loves the characters and the situations they find themselves in. Kipper is gentle fun that teaches life lessons with subtlety and grace and without being treacly. I cannot recommend them more highly than that. What fun!!!!
Rating: - Kipper DVD
This is a wonderful video for children. It gets watched Everyday. My children thank you.
Rating: - A must have for every child
Kipper has been beloved in our house since my son was born 6 1/2 years ago. Since each episode is only a few minutes long, we watch one episode (or two) just before bedtime. Since Kipper has such simple animation, it is easy on the eyes as well as the spirit. I can't say enough about what Kipper has meant to our family. Buy just one and you will be hooked. These videos will go in the hope chest for our grandchildren!
