Customer reviews

"As a grandmother, I was excited to see this video and my first thoughts were about giving it to my great-grandchildren for Christmas. But I found myself enthralled with the children and the birds and realized how little I actually knew about birds and how to identify them. This was an education for me. It made me want to put out a bird feeder and then watch for the birds that it would attract. This is a video that appeals to all ages and is very well done. The colors are gorgeous and the sounds are clear. The video honors God and His magnificent creations. I can't think of a nicer gift for your grandchildren or for yourself."

"Extremely well done educational product which shows God's beautiful creation. We provided it as a gift for our granddaughter, and she loves it. Our son says she keeps asking to watch the bird video. Not only does she enjoy watching with a smile and laugh (she especially enjoys all the sections with the Crowe children), but is picking up great information with a creation base. The music use adds much to the package. The professionalism of the Crowe children is amazing, and the product is very well produced. Much of the information in the extra chapters (making suet, building feeders, etc) is great for both children and parents and provides great video and information to use in child-parent activities.”
