What’s the DVD about?
Timmy Time follows a day in the life of barnyard preschoolers. With diverse animal characters along with a rich and colorful nursery school backdrop, Timmy and his friends learn life lessons that every preschooler needs to know. Whether fleeing bath time, becoming a walking collage, being bitten by the cleaning bug or engaging in a paint war, Timmy and his pals always bring joy, heart and a little silliness to any situation.

Timmy Time™ is part of Disney Channel’s Disney Junior programming for kids ages 2-7 and their families, which airs in more than 99 million U.S. homes. The show is created by Aardman Studios, the Academy Award®-winning creators of Wallace & Gromit™ and Shaun the Sheep™.

The lowdown…
Timmy, a cute little lamb, gets into all kinds of trouble but with the help of his teachers and furry friends he learns something along the way. If your’re not familiar with the stop-motion style of Wallace and Gromit you’re in for a treat. The animation/clay-mation is brilliant. The colors are vibrant and the work is amazing. It will leave you and your little ones amazed and entertained. The one drawback for me is also one of the charming points of the series. There is no dialog. The characters all make animal noises and although it caters to the very little (ages 2-5) it can get very repetitive. What makes this collection fun for the family is the story. Using limited dialog with vivid visuals and gestures your children should be able to pick up on some of the elementary lessons told in this collection: cleanliness, organization, responsibility and interaction with their peers. Something that most adults could stand a lesson or two on.

Extras…
As you might expect for a kiddie title it’s “short” on extra content. “Timmy’s Tune #2″ is a short music  video featuring the cast of his animal buddies and the “Shaun the Sheep” bonus episode “Supersize Timmy” is a nice bit of extra animation. The autoplay feature is also nice for parents and children who want to dive right in.

Bottom line…
The quality of storytelling and animation are it’s strong point. What’s not to like about these cute little creatures? If you can handle the kiddie “sheep talk” that this video would be a great addition to your family’s library and would be perfect for travel trips to keep your child visually entertained.
