Summary: If you have small children then you want this video
Comment: Of all the vids we have bought, this one is rarely not in the player. Excellent value and keeps them entertained for hours - just keep rewinding it!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Maisy
Comment: We love Maisy in our house. My son of eighteen months is not a child for watching either telly or video but he is smitten with Maisy. The concepts are kept straightforward and easy to grasp for little minds. This video focuses on colours, numbers and patterns. The animation is simple and the commentary
minimal. The stories seem to be in short, five minute bursts, which seems to be about right for the concentration span of a toddler (and many adults!). A total success.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A SUPERB VIDEO, EDUCATIONAL AND FUN TOO!!
Comment: We added 'Maisy Colours and Counting' to our Maisy collection, and cannot say enough good things about it. Great music, educational, fun, gentle... Buy it now!!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Bright, colourful and absorbing animation.
Comment: The animation in this video is excellent. The short storylines focus clearly on colours and counting but in a fun and interesting way so that the children learn them unconsciously. This video brings the Maisy characters to life. The background music is not intrusive or irritating but adds to the stories. Both my two year old and one year old look forward to watching one or two Maisy stories before bedtime. The video has an extremely calming effect on them due to it's clear, colourful and absorbing animation. Highly recommended. I also recommend 'Maisy Bedtime and Other Stories'.

Maisy, the epony-mouse from Lucy Cousins' hugely popular books, has been brought to the small screen in a series of beautifully produced animated tales now collected together on video. Each episode focuses on a central theme such as "Bedtime" or "Birthday", and features Maisy's band of friends: Tallulah the effervescent chick, Eddie the elephant, Cyril the Squirrel, and the stomach-obsessed crocodile Charley. The animation reproduces the bright, block colours of the books, but adds a new dimension of playful characterisation and sound effects. The characters' voices are very much in the Teletubbies and Pingu mode, offering few discernible words but perfectly evoking the individual characters and appealing to very young children. Neil Morrissey's voice-over offers a gentle, questioning cue for Maisy and her friends' activities, and further brings out the stories' educational emphasis. The Maisy videos combine simple presentation with charming characterisation to great effect and each tale is constructed with an underlying intelligence and humour that repays repeat viewings. For those in occasional need of a Teletubby-free zone, these are the perfect videos for pre-school children.In Colours & Counting Maisy picks up all her friends in her bus (although Eddie is a tight squeeze!), plays hide and seek with Charly, and organizes an egg hunt for everyone. In "Clouds" she goes ballooning, while at the circus Cyril spin plates, Tallulah walks the tightrope, Eddie trampolines and Maisy does a turn on the trapeze. The emphasis on numbers and colours is imaginatively applied throughout, particularly when Eddie helps Maisy paint her shed in technicolour! --Steve Napleton
