Kids loved the music and the graphics. It motivated discussion among the children about flying to Hawaii and they went to the globe to figure out where it is located. The kids chattered away about the marine animals, toys and puzzles and the cool surfers. Each little boy said, "I'm that one" as the surfers went through the waves. The adult leaders primped the kids to repeat the Hawaiian words shown on screen.
Engaging and entertaining for both parents and children. Appropriately paced, pleasant background music. Holds your interest throughout. Good cinematography, technical and artistic values. It broadens a child's global perspective, teaching the Hawaiian language while exploring the geographical beauty of the islands. The scenes of marine life - turtles swimming, dolphins jumping - are engaging. It uses toy characters of people. The Hawaiian children in their grass skirts and the older surfers are smiling, athletic and respectful of their culture. Kids might find it interesting to learn that Hawaiians have a different language. One juror compared this DVD to Baby Einstein with a Hawaiian theme.
This interactive DVD teaches children about Hawaii's beautiful ocean and magnificent sea life. Using stunning photography, amusing toys, fun graphics and animation and authentic music of Hawaii makes this a truly unique tour of paradise.
