Has anyone seen this? My SIL (not frum) wants to get this for my kids. I want to make sure it's appropriate before giving her the ok. You can only learn so much from a review.... Smile

My mom took my kids to see it, but I haven't seen it. They liked it but apparently it got a little boring in the middle. OTOH, it's a little like the famous "Meerkats" show--a lot of the cute little baby penguins don't survive, so if your kids are very sensitive, they might be upset by that.

We didn't have TV or videos at home when I had little kids, and when they would see nature stuff elsewhere, it was just too much for them. My son cried at night for years & had nightmares about the mommy bear and the baby bear getting separated....

BH he's now 18 years old, happy as a lark learning in E"Y, but he didn't get over it by magic, he had a guidance counselor, etc., at school to talk to, as he aged.

I strongly suggest renting it first and deciding for yourself. Some kids may be OK, others not. My daughter was OK but I was squirming through a couple scenes wondering how she would react (the mating scene, and the dead penguins).
