3–Fitness instructor, Miss Anna, clearly explains basic
stretches and exercises in 23 minutes of fitness instruction that is
full of positive messages that emphasize the fun of exercise. The
exercises include basics like the body stretch, windmills, jumping
jacks, and push-ups. Miss Anna first demonstrates each exercise and then
14 youngsters, ranging in age from toddlers to preteens, perform them.
The instructor is joined on stage by children’s performer Miss Lori,
and the character Sqedunk, played by an adult in a pig costume. She
encourages the children with phrases such as, “You can do it.” The
DVD also contains the picture book story, Sqedunk
Takes a Tub Tub, written and read by Lori Reeves, and the exercise
segment from her show, Miss Lori Live. The instructions are easy
to follow and the movements are simple, making this an encouraging
choice for beginning workouts.–Cynthia Grabke, Thayer Public
