Spooked a 2-year Old

"When this DVD was first watched, the adults in our household thought that these Winnie the Pooh stories did a very good job introducing ghosts to the 23 1/2 month old in the house. However, in recent days we have decided to hide this movie because it has caused the 23 1/2 month old to worry about ghosts now, even though we told her and she agrees with us verbally that ghosts are not real. This little girl is an avid movie watcher and has an amazing concentration level when it comes to watching them. Unfortunately she has internalized this one and now will not go to bed in her room at night alone. And she has never had a problem going to bed before. Parents beware of this DVD, just because it is Pooh does not mean it is totally harmless to impressionable little minds."

Overall Good

"3 and a half stars. Ok the good stuff: This has nothing really scary at all in it, so its pretty good for very young kids. Its also Pooh, so its just plain fun to watch. Tigger is hilarious! The few things I was disappointed with were the length, around 60 minutes for both programs(5 shorts in total), and the box said 70, and it should have had "Boo to You Too" to make it even more 'halloweenish'.
My favorite was "Frankenpooh", but it was only 5 minutes long! "Things that go Piglet in the Night" is about piglet being mistaken for a ghost, its very funny. In "Pooh Moon", the gang mistakes eachother for monsters (the GrabMe Gotchas!), also pretty funny. "Knight to Remember" had piglet imagining he is a knight and has to be brave and slay a dragon, its a cute story that kids will really enjoy! and "Rock a Bye Pooh" Piglet has a nightmare (not very scary) so won't fall asleep, its really sweet because Pooh, Rabbit and Tigger are really good friends and try to help Piglet get over his nightmare. Also the bonus features (a game and a fun sing along song) aren't really to do with this DVD, but with "Boo To You Too", which I think should have been included on the DVD to make it a complete Halloween collection."

My 3 year old loves it

"Spooky themed animated shorts from "The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh" my 3 year old watched so many times she knew the titles to all the shorts!"

Spookable never fails to fascinate the kids

"After I had watched the movie for the first time with our 2,5 year old son, I tried to hide it. It actually is quite "spookable", and I was afraid he would not be able to sleep. I bought him a replacement- a nice story with lots of songs and fun- but he insisted on getting spookable winnie back. Ever since, it has been his absolute favorite. And, by the way, he sleeps fine. I am sure he would give it a five. I continue to think there are other Winnie the Pooh stories around with more depth and beauty- the ranking is a compromise between a child's and a parent's perspective."
