I used to teach (moreso baby sitting) 2-3 year-old children from my church, and they always watched Veggie Tales.  Then, I grew fond of the videos.

They are very good for little children and good for us.  It teaches us to "Love your neighbor," "Serve Others,"...

Here's a link online for everyone, I got it right from Kristi Ann's Haven (http://ka7.proboards30.0com/index.cgi);

"VeggieTales" (http://www.bigidea.com/)

I like the music and the messages.

I'm not really fond of their 'poetic license' with the Bible stories, though.  :-\

I also do like the family fun ideas:

Straight from the DVD~ ::)

Veggie Tales are a joke in our house...if there was a sad/scary movie on the television, the littlest says, "We need to watch Veggie Tales now". Its simple, funny, and not too serious. Talking vegetables. Heehee.

I personally don't like all their shows, especially the one on Esther. Esther didn't even LOOK like a veggie, just a green lady with a head and no arms. I think they could have made an Esther movie that was child-friendly and funny, without making it too ridiculous; the jewish vegetables were threatened with eternal tickling? Wait a minute! In "The chocolate factory", Bob, Larry and Junior were threatened with real fire! Big, scary fire! But Esther had to save her people from tickling?  :-\

I love VeggieTales!  They are so cute and funny, and the songs are fun and enjoyable!  I also take their tapes with me whenever I go to baby-sit.  The kids love it!


  Thanks for the link KristiAnn and Sincereheart.  They are awesome!

  I didn't like Ester as much as the others either, but it did have a good message and made it fun for the kids!  I have a feeling they are running out of ideas for vegetables, so they may have had to make someone up for Ester's character. Though seriously sometimes I have no idea what kind of vegetable is put on my plate, so you just never know.  Maybe she's one of those unknown yeggies ;D

Junior is so cute I just want to cry!! I love all of em!!I got the Ultimate Silly Song Countdown and I always watch it when I'm in a sad mood to cheer me up.  ;)

Exactly!  :-X

However, I do love the song, "God is Bigger than the Boogeyman"!

I can listen to it to get the message across to my littlest one - but the truth is; I like it and need the reminder from time to time!  :-X  ;D

I have never heard of this, Veggie Tales.

Now really DreamWeaver! It was a movie too I recall, I think.


I am not sure right now....    :'(

And that tells how much TV I watch, not much.

oh yeah, I hardly turn on the TV.. I only have rabbit ears, now where did that bunny run off to anyhow, drats he jumped the fence again *tee hee*

Blessings,  \o/

*GASP* I'm stunned!   :o

You've heard of apple pie and baseball, haven't you?  :-X

Veggie Tales are..... well, vegetables that tell stories from the Bible and stories with a Christian view. Talking vegetables with a Message?  ;)

Ooo! Ooo! I happen to BE that littlest one! I get to lay claim to the cuteness factor!!


BTW, Let's each post which veggie we think we are: I'm Larry the cucumber.

Apple pie? Baseball?

Yes I have heard of them, I like apple pie, I dislike baseball. Then again too, I don't really watch TV. Nothing much is on it outside of a good movie once in a while. ;D

Then again too, I don't really watch TV. Nothing much is on it outside of a good movie once in a while.  ;D

We don't watch it at all! And the talking/singing veggies aren't on TV!  :P

Please remember that I am over 85% deaf. So closed caption on TV will do no good for me then. :(

Can you get the DVD and turn it up LOUD??!!  ;D You don't need CC for Veggie Tales sing alongs. They have the words right on there!  ;)

I guess I have to buy a DVD player. :(

You can get the Veggies on video!  ;D

Where?? I haven't seen it here.

At your local Christian bookstore/retailer!  ;D

I buy from the church. I also don't have a whole lot of money, to buy extras.

We wait for sales. And my littlest one is given most as gifts. I don't suppose you'd be receiving one for your birthday?  ;)

Ok, how about checking with the families at your church that have little ones? They may have some??

 ;D
