Grandpa's Magical Toys (1988 Video)
8/10
A Good Video For Little Kids
4 September 2020
I saw this at school once in music class, and as an adult, it looks cheesy, but I remembered this was made for younger kids.

So, this is part of the Wee Sing line of videos aimed at younger children, which all focus on singing songs aimed at preschool and kindergarten levels. In this, three kids, Peter, David, and Sarah visit the grandfather of Peter as the toy maker is looking for a special key. While checking out the toys, David bumps into the bookcase, opening the music box and shrinking the three to toy size, which also causes the toys, led by Punchinello the clown, to come to life.

Yeah, this may not look good in today's standards, but it is a good video. The cast of characters are charming, from Punchinello, the friendly clown, to the Muffin Man, to a talking cookie jar, the costume designs are well done for a kidvid. Also, the movie teaches a good lesson about friendship and being young at heart, no matter how old you are, and has some good songs.
