Fireman Sam: Hero Next Door

31/2 yo grandson loves to watch this video. Teaches lots of safety lessons. Keeps him busy while we are on the road.

Fireman Sam DVDs are not widely known. But toddlers LOVE them. I got this one when it came out and for the price it's a steal. Arrived on time and my granddaughter loved it. Happy all the way around.The Fireman Sam series keeps toddlers fascinated, while teaching them great values. It is the fireman version of Thomas the Tank Engine. I recommend this for all parents and grandparents.

We bought it before we took a long trip. Our toddler loves it. However, it is not what you see on PBC Sprout channel. The characters look different. Some of them do not exist in the TV version. There are some new characters in this DVD. It took several minutes for our toddler to figure it what we were watching! After that we did not have any problem.In this DVD twins James and Sarah do not have any parents. Elvis does not sing. There is no Radar dog.In this DVD there is Dusty dog. There is Bella, an italian lady, who owns an italian cafe. Bella has a cat named Rosa.I just wished that they kept characters look the same and didn't change them in all seasons.If you have time then check other seasons on youtube and you will understand what I am talking about.

Great to see an old classic. Can't fast forward through the adverts.

My son loved this video when he was 2-5. We attended a birthday party for a child turning 3 and he wanted to get the DVD as a gift for the child. The child was so excited to receive this and the parents said that he is calm, cool, and collected while the DVD is on! It brings out the "Fireman" in all children!

We love Fireman Sam and find ourselves partial to this 'original' version with the claymation look and Welsh dialects. This DVD includes four episodes: the one where Norman and Mandy are lost with Fire Captain Steele, the one with the mystery of the missing licorice shoelaces, when the carnival comes to Pontypandy and the one with the Joker Soaker. Its followed by one episode of Roary the Racing Car, another series that my boys love.

I ordered this because my little grandson loves this cartoon series. I bought two DVD's and he and his mom are so happy. They can be used in the car or after baths for a little quiet time before bed. It's about 45 minutes of Fireman Sam episodes...three put together.

My 4 YO LOVES Fireman Sam. Seriously loves this video above all others. If he were able to type he would give it a 5,000 star rating and tell everybody to go buy a copy immediately (this is the 3rd we now have after succumbing to his relentless pressure for MORE Fireman Sam).However I give it 1 star for the following reasons:1) As an adult who actually watches TV with my kids during TV time I can say with all honesty that this is the worst video ever and it causes me physical pain to have to sit through all 34 minutes of it. I think I have a Fireman Sam induced stomach ulcer now.2) The characters in this video consistently and relentlessly make poor choices (all of which require the assistance of a fireman). While I understand that if the people in this town actually made reasonable choices than there wouldn't be much drama, I don't appreciate the behavior that is modeled. As an example - when a squirrel sets fire to a house the girl runs INTO the fire to rescue the squirrel while her PARENTS wait outside for the firemen to come rescue their daughter.3) 2 of the 4 firemen are probably taking the short bus to school (Wendy and Sam are OK so if there is a fire in your village please request their help specifically). Again while not all firemen are top notch, having firemen model ridiculous behavior sends a confusing message. Are firemen well trained individuals who you can count on in a crisis? Or are they apt to attempt to throw a bucket of water onto an electrical fire?Its too late for us. But please.....save yourselves. Give this one a pass.

I'm not even sure how it started since we don't get Fireman Sam on TV in Canada. My son must have seen a bonus episode on a Thomas Train Engine DVD. However my nearly 3 year old son is obsessed with Fireman Sam.This is the 3rd Fireman Sam DVD we've bought from Amazon. All are wonderful. My son likes this one in particular because of the episode with the squirrel chewing through the TV cord, and an episode where the naughty neighborhood boy Norman gets a water gun as a gift. My son laughs and laughs as Norman squirts everyone in the town and runs away. Fireman Sam teaches fire safety, good morals and helping people.The story takes place in a town in Wales, so the characters all have Welsh accents. If your child is obsessed with firetrucks this is probably the show for you.

This DVD is a big hit with my three year old boy. He loves Fireman Sam and all things about fire engines. I like that Fireman Sam has some good simple safety messages in there that the very little ones can understand.

My 4 year old son loves this movie! He watches it every day! When he is not watching it, he is singing the "red is for danger" song. Love it!
