MY THOUGHTS
I received a copy of Jake And The Never Land Pirates: Yo Ho, Mateys Away!. We first learned bout Jake And The Never Land Pirates last year, shortly before a trip to Walt Disney World. The DVD contains 7 episodes, each episode consisting of two shows. The shows are the perfect length for young children, short enough for to hold your child’s attention or even be used as a treat. The animation is very bright and colorful, which just fits the overall cheerful show. In the show, Jake, Cubby and Izzy are friends. The group of friends is always having to get their things back from the whimsical thieves Captain Hook and Mr Smee (yes this is based on Peter Pan). I like that the show delivers positive messages on friendship, sharing and teamwork, as well as educational skills such as counting and sorting. The show does have some fun songs in it. CJ always tries to sing the theme song, so the included CD made for lots of interesting singing at our house.
