Curious George 2 DVD Review & Giveaway
I grew up reading Curious George (the books), so I was excited when it came to real life on DVD…as were my kids of course! Thanks to Universal Studios, we had the opportunity to review “Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey” on DVD. I had wanted to see the movie in the theater with the boys but we didn’t get a chance to when it was out, so we we’ve been waiting for the opportunity to see it on DVD. It was a really cute movie and I hope to see a 3rd one after watching this one! My boys loved the movie and it was cute to see them giggle at different parts of the movie. The story line was adorable and I loved the voices of Tim Curry, Matt Lauer, Jamie Kennedy, and Jerry Lewis. I also liked the 2 Never-Before-Seen Shows from the All-New TV Season that were in the Special Features. My 6 year old even discovered the Curious George Game and had a blast playing that. I’m really glad we own “Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey” on DVD!

I’m not sure of the title…it might just be Curious George. It’s the story where he swallows the puzzle piece, goes to the hospital and meets the little girl.

This would be great for my 6 year old great nephew.
I really enjoyed Curious George as a kid. I remember him getting into all kinds of mischief but not because he wanted to be bad, just because he was curious and wanted to help out.
My favorite book is Curious George Rides a Bike.
My favorite thing about George is how he figures out problems and my child gets to learn in the process.

My favorite book is Cecily G. and the Nine Monkeys he sure igets into lots of messes.
We have a few Curious George books, and my favorite is the Halloween Costume Party… it really helped explain all the festivities (decorating, costumes, trick-or-treating) that we’re going on to my preschool son.

Curious George goes to the Hospital is one of our favorite of his books 🙂
I like the one where Curious George goes skiing!
I love that he always wants answers to his questions!
I don’t remember the title, but the one where CG learned to ride a bike and then crashed and broke his front wheel and had to ride a wheelie around and then ended up in the circuis riding wheelies… that was my favorite when I was a kid. I still can’t ride a wheelie though no matter how much I’ve tried.
I like that it’s a good wholesome cartoon!

I love that he always means well, but likes to get into everything. In the end he always ends up ‘accidentally’ helping.
I always got a kick out of the man with the yellow hat
I like that he is always going on adventures and learning new things.
