Review: Wee Bee Tunes Travel Adventures: The Journey Continues!

What Parents Should Know
Jazzy music with catchy melodies makes this an enjoyable, if
simplistic, CD. However, you might want to discuss the
reference to partying at Oktoberfest and New Orleans with your
kids (and that these places have more to offer than revelry),
as well as some of the religious dogma.
Common Sense Media Review
WEE BEE TUNES TRAVEL ADVENTURE?THE JOURNEY CONTINUES! works
better than its accompanying DVD. One reason is that the music
is simply the strength of the series. The other lies in the
fact that the DVD is full of confusing images and messages.
These are not as apparent in the CD; however, some religious
dogma regarding the founding of Jerusalem comes through. Also
worth noting is the focus on revelry at Oktoberfest and New
Orleans where partying is seemingly the most important fact of
these regions. South Africa's mining history is exploited for
its economic gain and apartheid is glossed over, which again
raises the question: why focus on these aspects of a rich and
varied region?
However, in the end, kids will like the swinging beats of the songs and parents can (and should) discuss some of these weaknesses in the content with their families.
