Come Outside with Auntie Mabel and Pippin

BBC Active

Reviewed By Nichola
Nov 19, 2008

The DVD titled A Windy Day has the following programmes:

  1. A Windy Day
  2. A rainy Day
  3. Holes in the Ground
  4. Soap
  5. Bricks

They all see the cheery Auntie Mabel and her dog Pippin going out and about in their spotty Aeroplane and getting in to some kind of trouble! The DVD has a number of different features on it including subtitles, a quick jump to the songs contained within each episode (songs include Incy Wincy Spider and Five Little Monkeys) plus an interesting 'Join in' section. This section invites you to watch the clip and think about the question posed. A nice little fun game which allows some further interaction with the clips.

Another children's favourite which I think has a place in any setting for younger children if only to start a discussion or a play topic or simply for a bit of fun entertainment!

Also available and recommended is the title Plants and Other Living Things 

The DVDs are available from the BBC School Shop at £23.49
