From "Workout in a Chair" to "Do the Benny Hop," the kids will see different ways to move their bodies. Some of the video clips are cartoons while others are home-movie style clips of kids in a gym. Because of the diverse nature of the clips, it is very hard for kids to imitate what they are seeing on the screen.

At first, this video shows real potential of being a structured, organized workout video. But unlike the adult exercise tapes, it quickly unravels into a jumble of Sesame Street clips and kids bouncing all around. Of course, most toddlers will relate to this kind of behavior and follow right along (in quite an unruly manner). Unfortunately, if you are looking for a step-by-step workout video that teaches your child a exercise routine and incorporates the same moves over and over, this isn't for you.

My own kids (ages 5 and 2) had a mixture of responses to this video. In between the clips of kids running around, my toddler lost interest. And the actual exercises are so short that by the time he figured out how to do the moves, the clip was over. So in the end, Elmocize became a video we watch when the kids want to jump around and dance while Elmo and the Sesame Street gang talk or sing in the background. It's a fun video for the kids-but it is more of a promotional video for exercise in general, not an instructional video on how to exercise.
