Same DVD all day long

[Lisa]

DS1 is nearly 3 1/2 and the only thing he'll sit in front of for more than 5 minutes is Cars. I think both he and I can recite it word for word LOL!!

Harrison is exactly the same... Harrison loves to watch Cars as he is going down for a nap. DH and I know it word for word... some nights we sit in there and mouth the words too. Harrison only likes to watch the first 2-3 chapters then he is either over it or asleep.

He has also discovered Yo Gabba Gabba for his awake times, and also likes In The Night Garden (which DH and I think is annoying!)

So December, you're not alone hun... but 10 mins of movies for 10 mins peace and quiet is worth it if you ask me

I hear you on the cars obession, Zander has loved it since he got it for Christmas in 2006. Aaron & I sprout lines from it allll the time.

Our girls latest obsession is In The Night Garden. They know that it is on after sunrise on abc1 and lunchtime on abc2. Most days they get to watch the first one but I refuse to have it on twice in one day. The girls have the books too but thankfully no dvd's... I just hope nobody buys one for Christmas

We have so many kids dvd's its not funny so there is usually a different one chosen each time. The girls also take turns in choosing so its not always Dora The Explorer which is our youngest ones favourite.

Wiggles and Hi-5 songs just seem to seep into your consiousness and I've heard of parents with cd's in the car singing (by accident) whilst other adults are in range and the jeers they receive are huge. Yes, I'm one of them singing unfortunately! It's worse for men though.
