Sesame Street – Elmo Says Boo
Movie DVDA Halloween treat. Elmo visits fellow Sesame Street Muppet the Count in the latter’s castle–and gets scared for a moment. But only a moment, as a lot more buddies from the television program show up, and jokes, songs, and surprises abound. Among the clever tunes: “Transylvania 1-two-3-four-5,” “We Are All Monsters,” and “Frazzle.” –Tom Keogh …Read Far more >>> Sesame Street – Elmo Says Boo

I was expecting to hate this – but I think it’s terrific!,
Many of the newer Sesame Street videos, particularly if they feature the “little red menace” are watered-down and icky sweet. This one actually scared my toddler a little bit at the beginning – but engaged him enough to keep him watching until he wasn’t scared any more – EXACTLY what you want it to do!
Toddlers have lots of fears – especially around halloween – and this video is a good way to show them that being scared can be fun! It’s filled with knock-knock jokes, bad puns, and spooky talking skeletons, ghosts, and more fun props. I love that they didn’t get rid of the thunder, lightning, or any other “scary” stuff in the Count’s castle. There’s also a lot of muppet-kid interaction where everyone gets silly.
I highly recommend this video to anyone who’s got a shy toddler!

|Enjoyable to watch, but a parent needed to help…..,
My Daughter – now 2- is an Elmo fanatic. And while she was quite excited to see the new video, it has taken 3 viewings With Mommy close by to feel comfortable with this video.
Between the friendly ghosts, the rattling skeleton and the spooky organ, she was quite unsure – especially when she saw Elmo jump or cry out with fright. She was also very skittish through the Ernie and Bert in Egypt skit – with the “Ernie” statue that moved.
That is not to say that she now does not love this video – I just want to caution parents that they may need to be close by to do some explaining and reassuring as it can be a bit spooky. Unlike one like the “Best of Elmo”, I think this one needs a big lap to snuggle into to enjoy!
