As a former teacher and a mother of four I love these dvds. The cast is multi cultural and females are well represented. There are educational and prosocial storylines. But the best thing about the Playhouse is that it is FUN! Imagine a playhouse where the food comes alive in the fridge and a family of dinosaurs lives in a mouse hole! There is a robot with a daily "secret word" and a genie who grants wishes. The "King of cartoons" shows what animation was like pre-Disney. Pee Wee may make a crank phone call or do an arts & craft project or prepare a simple recipe like fruit punch or fruit salad. There are friendly tricks and silly situations. There are conflicts and inappropriate behavoirs. But through it all there is a constant theme of friendship and the importance of "getting along" even when the going gets rough. The playhouse was among the best and the brightest tv series made for children. My children enjoyed it and I bought this so my grandchildren can too.Read full review

I love this show! When I was about 11 or 12 yrs old, my whole family would make breakfast together on Saturday mornings and be at the table eating at 9:00am, just in time to turn on Pee-Wee's Playhouse on our small kitchen tv. We did this every weekend and we even participated with the word of the day, sreaming our heads off when it was said, even our parents! I stumbled across this item and I just had to have it! It's been 20 years since my family has done this and I can still remember word-for-word some of the episodes, my kids think I'm nuts. I think it's fun!
This set of DVDs, for some reason is not available in my area. Knowing that my daughter “LOVED” Pee-Wee’s Playhouse growing up, I thought it would make a nice holiday gift for her. It sure did, her younger brother really liked them too. The DVD collection was packaged nicely and delivered in a very timely fashion. The product was in excellent condition and I must say I even laughed out loud a few times watching with my kids. This was & it a GREAT product for the price. My kids and I are very happy with this purchase!
