![]() Let's Make a Deal DVD Game $19.99 I got this game a few years back. Monty's hair is grayer, but other than that, he's still the same, offering deals, cutains, boxes and "zonks" to everyone. Jay Stewart and Carol Merrill are also featured, and the cars and such are priced at 1970s prices, which should be kept in mind when playing this game. A variety of games and prizes keep this DVD game fresh and interesting. The "Big Deal of the Day" and the "quickie deals" are also included. A couple of setbacks. You have to kept track of your winnings and scores, the game doesn't do that for you. Even in one game when you spin a wheel, it just shows the current amount, not your total from the previous spins. Other than that, LMAD is one of the better DVD games put out by Imagination, and a fun retro trip back in time. Recently I've seen this game in stores like Kmart for ten bucks. A good buy for that price. ![]() Sesame Street - Let's Make Music [VHS] $9.98 My three year old daughter has a fondness for all things musical, but seeing as to how she has a spectrum disorder, I never know what she'll like or dislike -- even when it has a musical theme. I learned the hard way that it would be better for me to borrow movies from Netflix and test them out on her before purchasing them. I did exactly that and now I'm here on Amazon to purchase "Let's Make Music". At first, DD didn't like the large amounts of dialogue compared to other Sesame Street videos such as Kids' Favorite Songs or Sing Yourself Silly!. But she loved seeing her favorite characters create music out of items that she could imitate right at home (like Bert's song about an Oatmeal box). She also is a big fan of the Pinball machine song by the Pointer Sisters -- those of you who are my age or older will remember it fondly too. The only thing I disliked about it was that the ending came sort of abruptly or it was sorta of anti-climatic. The grand performance at the end wasn't exactly grand. But it's my daughter's opinion that matters and she'd give it 5 stars. ![]() Let's Make a Jesse Tree $9.00 This book has the history of the Jesse Tree and so much more. The large patterns for the various ornaments were very easy to follow for a mixed age (3-4 5-9) group of sunday school kids. The final result was glorious. Thanks to a lot of detail in the book. |
