The Rosary for Little Children (2005)

Ms. Naimo playfully, musically, and reverently presents the purpose of the rosary in a show more like a Miss Rogers Neighborhood for Catholic kids than Barney the Dinosaur for video-weaned munchkins (thank God). There's nothing wrong (esp. to children) with praying for healthy babies' birth: People have done it universally for thousands of years (until the last 35 years anyway). It is a bit distracting to pray while a scene focuses on a fetus in utero, however, if only because all other scenes are of children or infants or adults. The program feels a bit scripted (since it is) but it succeeds and I'm glad to see a disc like this for kids. 3 stars.
