about Cody's Crew - The Big Building!
Featured review
Dear Cody's Crew. I am a mother of 2 boys. Kurtis (4) and Kole (2) and they both loved your video. They can both sing your theme song and they act out the video in the bathtub with the bubbles and also in the sand box with their construction toys. They have also started talking about working together, which is a big step for them. Thanks for the entertaining show. Karen from Sardis, B.C.

My grandson loves Cody's Crew!
Reviewer: Murray Rubin
Noah is 2 and won't put his new Cody's Crew video down! He asks for it all day. He's always sure to pack in his backpack (along with his favourite teddy bear) whenever he's visiting family. It's definitely his favourite video.
When I saw the video for the first time I was amazed. The characters really come to life; the computer animation is fabulous! This is a terrific video for kids who love construction. Cody's Crew is a winner.

My kids love it!
Reviewer: A viewer from Toronto, Ontario Canada
Cody's Crew is a gentle story that appeals to my 2-year old and my 7-year old. My 7-year likes the story because she recognizes and appreciates the message about working together to accomplish something. My 2-year old enjoys the music, the graphics and the characters. The humour is appropriate for kids of all ages. If you can measure the success of a kids' video by how often it's watched, then Cody's Crew is a hit in our household!

Cody's Crew A+
Reviewer: A viewer from Richmond Hill, Ontario Canada
IT IS WONDERFUL! We loved it! Using construction vehicles for the characters is the ultimate for kids, they just eat that stuff up. Also, the video has a very clear and strong lesson. Which should be a major part of the purpose for letting kids watch videos. It clearly shows kids that tasks at hand can be completed more productively through organization, cooperation and planning. So many kids videos are empty or try to teach a lesson but are not clear enough. This video clearly delivers the point.
We also loved the fact that despite the fact the characters were working on a noisy construction site, there were moments of quiet, and voices were lowered with soft music which presents a great contract and prevents kids from getting wound up and loosing the message. We also chuckled at some of the antics of some of the characters.
Thank you so much for the video, we will treasure it.
Thanks!

I am a Mom of a 2.5 year old son that LOVES Cody's Crew. He watches it so much that he can recite the whole movie. And he walks around all the time singing the beginning song...Thank for creating a video that is so great for a little boy. E. Schroeder
Joshua is absolutely in love with Cody's Crew. What a dynamic cartoon and with a fantastic message, too! We just can't get enough! Even Joshua's older sisters really love the video, and they all dance like crazy when the theme song starts to play. A. Spiker
My son Jason just loves to watch Cody's crew! He is always asking to watch it, in fact, he demands it! "Watch CODY-CREW!!". We came upon it by accident at the video store, and have had to rent it several times for him. He doesn't understand that we only rented it and it had to go back to the store, but thankfully I have located a copy and will be able to buy it for him! Thank you from Jason
I just want to let you know how much my 3 year old son (and my 7 year old daughter) love this video. The first time my son watched it, he made me re-wind it and watch it two more times. He has named all his construction vehicles after the "crew" vehicles and takes them with him whenever we go visiting.
I love to watch him play the "cooperation game" when he's playing with his trucks, and I'm thrilled that there is a video out there for boys that doesn't involve crashes, super heroes vs bad guys, or purple dinosaurs. Thanks so much for the quality product.

Just wanted to say "Thank you!" Our boys (4 and 5) LOVE the video and watched it a dozen or more times in the space of a few days during Christmas break. The boys watch Cody's Crew at least once a day. It's a favourite.
Lorraine, Owen (5), Rory (4)
We LOVE Cody's Crew. We've told all our friends about it and their kids love it too. Good job at creating kid oriented, high quality video!

My two year old loves your video - he was given it as a Christmas gift and I think it's getting worn out!!! He asks for it specifically and can recite the dialogue during and even before the characters do!!! Thanks on behalf of my son!

How do I begin to thank you and your crew for the positive encouragement all of you teach children. I purchased your video last week. Presently my son watches your video every opportunity he can. Your theme song is his anthem.
The video is very upbeat and colorful. There are so many educational experiences you can share with children. To teach children empathy, sympathy, fairness, kindness, awareness etc. is a special gift. I wish you and your crew tremendous success with your new adventures.
We would truly appreciate any new videos, games, toys or information on you and your crew. Thank you once again for such a positive, thoughtful product.
Yours truly, Ilena Borinsky
Our son Brock is only a little over 2 years old. As soon as he gets up in the morning we hear " I want to watch the Wally show dad!" He watches it about 5 times a day. So we would really like to thank you for making this video. If you make anything else please let us know.
Thank you again, Rob Marjorie and Brock Elliott
Hi, we just bought your video for our son's ages 5 years and 23 months, and even the youngest one loved it.... Thank you for a great video and Canadian Content... keep up the EXCELLENT WORK !!!!

Thanks from a very pleased parent... I as a parent had never seen this video before but my 3 yr old son picked it up at the store last week and has wanted to watch nothing else since we brought it home. My other son who is 5 but is Autistic also loves the video and we have already put Cody and his crew on all my kids t-shirts with the iron-ons from the activity pages (WHAT A GREAT IDEA). Thanks from a very pleased parent.

Absolutely great!... Please tell me there's going to be more of these videos soon....I bought this video last weekend for my son (who will be 2 in December) and I think it's almost worn out already! Absolutely great!

Way to go! My 3 year old son received "Cody's Crew" for his birthday, and totally loves this movie about construction machines. I hope there is more to come as we have been watching it constantly since the day it was received!!! Way to go!

My son Jacob is 3 and absolutely loves Cody's Crew. It's usually the first thing he watches in the morning and is a frequent traveller with us on road trips. Imagine our surprise when we saw the graphics, and better still, the lessons taught on the video. Much thanks,
Brian Sproule, Barrie, Ontario
My son is 3 and watches "Cody's Crew" at least three times a day. He absolutely loves it. I find myself singing along to the theme song as well. Excellent job putting this together, when is # 2 coming out??

My two year old son LOVES The Big Building video. He can't get enough of the construction action. I too love the video because it is quality entertainment. I hope you have plans to make more movies. We eagerly await Cody's next adventure with his crew. Keep up the good work! Best Regards,

Our son now calls my husbands excavators "Cody"... My husband and I recently purchased "The big building" for our 2.5yr old son. I must tell you how impressed we are. Our son constantly wants to watch it, and now knows the song off by heart. When the video is not playing, he is singing it. My husband owns his own construction company, and has all of the heavy equipment in the video except the cement truck. He is particularly impressed on the detail of the equipment. Our son now calls my husbands excavators "Cody". We hope to see more videos in the future. Keep up the good work, Respectfully,
Kim Settle
The Cody's Crew video was a big, big hit in our home. My 3 year old son, Jordan, spoted the video case in a video rental store one day and wanted to rent it. After that he wanted to watch it every day. We eventually had to buy the video for his birthday or spend alot more money to rent it. He loves to get up and dance to the opening song. All of his friends love to watch it when they visit. I will deffinately buy any more new Cody's Crew videos that come out. They are educational and fun.

The media says...
"Look for Cody to garner a nomination for outstanding performance by a hydraulically powered actor in a leading role. It's not fair to pigeonhole Cody's Crew - The Big Building as just a guy thing, but it will certainly appeal to boys with an appetite for construction. The computer animation is the main appeal of this video - even the dirt looks real. The artists have managed to make stark steel machinery look friendly..."
June 2002 Today's Parent Magazine
"For all those parents and kids who love Mighty Machines..." Cody's Crew has got all the great machinery and a plot to boot. This loveable animated excavator and his friends learn about working together. Kids will play the video over and over."
December 2001 OTTAWALIFE Magazine
"Cody's Crew is a movie with a clear message"
