It’s Periwinkle’s first day at preschool, and everyone needs to help Periwinkle make it through his first day. From finding his cubby and getting through circle time, to reading the job chart and understanding how to take turns and respect others, Periwinkle has a lot to learn.

Nickelodeon was nice enough to send my family a copy of Nick Jr. Favorites: The First Day of School to review. I personally like these DVDs, since their is more that only one series on the disc. Blake was happy to see Blue’s Clues – “Blue Takes You To School”, and he loves Blue! Wyatt liked watching Diego and learning about llamas. These shows are the perfect refresher for Wyatt, since he will be starting Kindergarten this year.
Nick Jr. Favorites: The First Day of School has a running time of 122 minutes and is available for purchase now from Amazon.com. This DVD retails for $16.99
