Go Potty Go: Potty Training For Tiny Toddlers Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have 2 sons, 2 yrs. 4 months, and a nine month old. The very first time the 2 yr. old saw this DVD, the moment it ended he asked to potty. Then he did it again later! He immediately started singing the theme song, and asked for this video again and again. Scary how easily a kid can be indoctrinated by someone other than the parent! We have been trying to get the kid to use the toilet, but he was not crazy about the idea until we bought this DVD. I also bought the recommended "Potty Adventure" - my son did not respond that well to that one for many reasons (which I will explain in my review of that product). There are several reasons I think this works well: (1) catchy songs. The DVD has the film and then the "music videos" which my kid is into also. I can see him trying to memorize the songs as he's watching the cartoon. As I said, he sings the refrain from theme song! (2) They let kids know that there are different kinds of potty chairs. We use the seat that goes on the toilet, and they explain that that's a potty chair too. So it doesn't matter what kind you use in your house - the seat or the potty chair - your kid will be included. (3) They show the toddler that everyone goes potty (not just your parents who are pressuring you to join them in the toilet-going thing). I think it registers that your favorite animals (pandas, ducks, elephants, bears...) all have to potty somewhere. (4) They let the kid know that it's a feeling in the tummy that lets you know you have to go potty. I think that's smart and helpful, and I haven't seen other books and films say this. ...We've seen "Go Potty Go" twice already this morning, and my child is asking for it again. My 9 month old watches it too. He likes the music, and maybe he likes to see the babies (in the sequence that says, basically, "babies poop and pee too, but in their diapers, and that's okay, but I want to be a big kid, and go potty"...). I can't recommend this one enough.
Update: The boys are now nearly 4.5 and 3 - and the just-shy-of-3 year old has started asking to see this DVD. He argues with his older brother about whether or not he's a baby or a big kid, and big brother says he's not because "big kids go potty." I think that this DVD is about to work his magic once more. If you ask me, this was money well spent.

Biggest Loser: Power Walk Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)There are 4 16-minute walks on this DVD, and a short, standard cooldown session. The DVD comes with a tracking card where you can record your workouts and how many miles you have walked so far.
Walk 1: Bob - The standard basic steps, no sweating. Feels like an easy aerobics session.
Walk 2: Sione - Walk with weights, some upper body workout involved.
Walk 3: Bob - Higher cardio workout with jumping jacks and skater movements.
Walk 4: Tara - Light upper body workout with a medicine ball.
Cooldown: Tara and Sione - Leg and arm stretching.
I tried all 4 walks and the cooldown on my first try, overall I found it quite enjoyable, with low impact for the knees. This is really a beginner DVD, but it is easy to bring it to an intermediate level by adding jumps and crouches with the steps, moving your arms around at the same time, and using heavier weights or even weights you can attach to your legs or wrists. My favourite sessions were Walk 2 and 3, because of the upper body workout, and the high cardio with Bob.
If you do not own a medicine ball you can use a heavier weight instead which you can hold with both hands. If you do not own weights, you can still go through the workouts, as they show how to do the moves without them, but I recommend having a pair to have a much better, useful workout.
I wear a BodyMedia FIT (aka the BodyBugg) and it recorded a total of ~6,500 steps for all 4 walks, and a calorie spend of ~425 calories (if you do the "intermediate" level moves).
Note: This DVD also comes with a few rebates and special offers inside, such as a code to download for free the Biggest Loser Workout Mix Top 40 Hits Vol. 1 (a 1h mp3 compilation to drive you through any workout), a rebate for the Biggest Loser Meal Plan and Know Your Number Health Score subscriptions.
