Tuffy the tiny tow truck is full of confidence. That's why Jay Jay and the other planes from the popular PBS KIDS animated television series admire her so much. She never gives up, no matter how heavy her load. Tuffy's wheels spin and her tow hook really retracts! Measures approximately 4 inches long.

This is a great video! It's the first Jay Jay The Jet Plane video we have purchased for our 18 month old! He really likes the "Tuffy's buried treasure" in the video with Tuffy and Revvin' Evan. I would recommend this video and hope to get others!

Jay Jay the Jet Plane, one of the sweetest franchises on PBS, offers preschoolers a trio of simple tales reinforcing the joys of discovery. In the opening episode of "Fun to Learn!" Jay Jay plays the Counting Game with his pals, and young viewers will be enticed to join the fun by naming numbers when they appear on the screen. In another story, business is booming at the Tarry Town Airport, giving traffic-controller Captain Hightower a chance to teach the young planes how to solve problems and take turns. The best of the bunch is "Jay Jay and the Magic Books," which achieves soaring marks for its visual beauty (at one point Jay Jay glides through the ocean with a giant whale) while underscoring the value of reading and the magic of using one's imagination. The show exudes warmth and freshness, and includes three toe-tapping songs. (Ages 2 to 4 years) --Lynn Gibson

My 2 1/2 year old loved this video when we checked it out from the library. I haven't purchased it because I'd like to wait for the DVD. We have never been able to watch the Jay Jay show on PBS because it is broadcast at an inconvenient time for us, so this video was my son's first exposure.
The video contains 3 short featurettes. Each has its own titles and credits, so you can stop the video between stories if you don't want to leave it on for the entire thing. The only downside to having three complete "shows" is that you also get the upcoming attractions, and in one case, a story is introduced that isn't on the video.
The counting game video is great for reinforcing number and counting skills. They also talk about the hours on a clock face, but the time element is dispensed with immediately. The Catpain Hightower episode teaches that patience and care is better than haste in getting things done efficiently. I like the episode, but even I find the Captain a little slow (and he...
