team umizoomi, animal heroes :: review and giveaway

Team Umizoomi, featured on Nickelodeon, is a show that I can tolerate. It’s a show that I appreciate. It’s a fun and educational show that all my girls enjoy watching. It isn’t one of those shows you grit your teeth to the entire time it’s on. There are no annoying character voices and every episode, that I recall, happens to have a good, learning agenda attached. Win-win!

Join Milli, Geo and Bot on four fantastic animal missions in Team Umizoomi: Animal Heroes. Help Team Umizoomi get Purple Monkey to his new Monkey Jungle home at the zoo, rescue Buster the dog at a construction site, fix the Cuckoo Bears’ clock, and find all of Farmer Dan’s missing animals!  Preschoolers will learn many math skills, including counting, patterns, measurement, and more!  For a limited time only, find free Team Umizoomi Activities inside the DVD for on-the-go math problem solving!

There are four episodes on this DVD, all pretty great in my opinion.  Bot not too many that the kids lose interest.

Purple Monkey Mission
There’s a new animal coming to the Umi City Zoo—Purple Monkey! But when Purple Monkey is accidentally dropped into the icy cold Penguin House, it’s up to Team Umizoomi to help him get to the Monkey Jungle!

Buster the Lost Dog
When Buster the dog accidentally jumps into the back of a truck that carries him far away, it’s up to Team Umizoomi to help rescue the puppy and bring him back to the park!

Cuckoo Bears
The Cuckoo Bears, a band that lives inside the Umi City Cuckoo Clock, lose the gears that give them their power! Will you help them find and fix the gears before the clock strikes 12?

Animal School House
Farmer Dan’s animals are missing from his farm! Join Team Umizoomi as they search for missing mice, chickens, pigs and one stubborn donkey!

Team Umizoomi is an interactive, kids show that gets my girls moving, counting and shouting out answers.  Pretty great!  If my kids will be watching something, I hope that something educational is setting in their brains and Team Umizoomi assures me in that area!
