Great tunes for kids AND adults
We enjoy throwing it in for trips because it's something we can all enjoy & the kids learn along the way. This CD & DVD combo (yes, it has both discs) is a lot of fun. I'm not what you would call a TMBG fan (I've subsequently tried a few other things. . . ) but this is great. The DVD is quirky, but fun to watch once. .


Good for kids
My kids like them all but this is definitely the weakest. I have Here comes science, Here come the 123s and Here come the ABCs. It does grow on you but the songs are not the best TMBG has to offer. The kids enjoy watching it and sing parts of the songs throughout the day but I am not sure it is really teaching much about the alphabet.


ABC's not as good as 123's.
We enjoyed it tremendously, including the DVD video. I first bought my daughter, 3 years old at the time, the 123's album that had just come out. I just purchased and received the ABC's album, and though my daughter enjoys both, I like it less because 1) the video segment is not as good, and 2) it is much longer! .


Mom, Dad, and 2 & 4 year old kids all LOVE it!
We already had the NO album but they really got into this one thanks to the DVD with the videos for each song (animated; with John & John puppets doing intros to each song). I've been a big TMBG fan since the 80s so I was really excited to buy this for the kids. They would watch that DVD endlessly if I let them. The good thing is the videos held their attention and got them hooked on the music so now they love listening to the CD in the car and will sing along (and dance as much as their car seats allow them to) Great buy for the DVD/CD combo. After buying and seeing this one Here Come the 1-2-3s was a no-brainer to get as well!.


Finally! An educational dvd that is also fun
My daughter is now 7 months old and still smiles every time the dvd starts up and the John puppets come on screen. I first discovered this dvd at the library, my then 5 month old daughter loved it so much that we had to buy it for her. My husband and I love that the songs are mostly educational while not being annoying and when the songs get stuck in our heads we just belt out a lyric or two and laugh. I just bought the Here Come the 1,2,3's dvd as a stocking stuffer and we will most likely end up buying the other cds as well.
