Spike watching his favourite DVD.

Another birdy vid...



Spike loves watching "Australia- Land of Parrots". He gets very excited and talks to the parrots and even tries to fly with them. He particularly loves the budgies, and gets very worried in this scene when a hawk catches one!

I have a cockatoo that can be entertained by giving her a shortbread cookie and putting her in front of Sesame Street.

I use to be able to get a solid 20 minutes of quiet time as she watches SS and eats her cookie.

Sadly I can never find S.S on the telly and other puppet shows don't hold her attention as much as good ol' Grover did.

This was adorable.

OMG! That sounds just like what I went through with my eldest son when he was little! LOL! I used to fill 3hr tapes with 'Street' (as he used to call it) eps. and we always had something to keep him occupied if necessary!

And it took him years before he 'graduated' to the Muppet show! For a long time he would flee the room in terror whenever it came on! XD
