Description: It's like Mr. Rogers at the controls of the Beastie Boys in this eye-popping collection of music videos and concert performances from the Imagination Movers, a critically acclaimed rock band for kids. The Movers leap, slide, hop, stomp, strum, drum, rap and clap their way through 15 educational rock and hip-hop songs designed for kids and parents to crank up together.
Dressed in their trademark bright blue coveralls, these national award-winning musicians and real-life dads jam on guitars, bang on buckets and teach kids a variety of fun, funky dances and sing-alongs. This DVD features songs from the Movers' groundbreaking CDs "Good Ideas" and "Calling All Movers." Highlighted tracks include the XM Radio #1 hit song "I Want My Mommy" as well as "Clean My Room," "The Medicine Song," "Please and Thank You" and "Playing Catch."
Amazon.com: Scott, Dave, Rich, and Smitty--the Imagination Movers--make music that's as much for parents as kids. While their lyrics are aimed at the short set, their bouncy tunes evoke pop and funk acts like Smash Mouth, Devo, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers (without any profanity or sexual innuendo). The first DVD from the New Orleans-based quartet, Stir It Up, features a heaping helping of material from both their CDs, Good Ideas and Calling All Movers. Lively videos alternate with energetic live performances, many of which feature audience participation. Some songs, like "I Want My Mommy (Time for Bed)," combine both approaches. Fans of the Wiggles and Bob the Builder are sure to find themselves tapping their toes with abandon, while learning some useful lessons along the way, like the importance of remembering your manners ("Please and Thank You") and tidying up ("Clean My Room").

Rating: - imagination movers a disappointment
The Stir it Up DVD was a large disappointment, I've raised 3 children and now have grandchildren and this was not a dvd that I would recommend to anyone.
Rating: - My Kids love it!!!
They loved it so much I had to buy another copy to keep in the car. Lots of fun!!
Rating: - Awsome!!!
I have had this DVD for over a year. My kids (2 1/2 year old twins and 1 year old) still go nuts when they watch this. They will dance the entire time and attempt to sing. The songs are so full of energy and they are something the whole family can listen to. I just wish it was longer!
Rating: - great video!
We bought this dvd for our two year old son and he absolutely loves it. He watches it everyday! We have all three cd's and he listens to them in the car each and every time we go somewhere! He has almost all the songs on the dvd memorized and we LOVE to hear him sing along!
Rating: - Love the Imagination Movers
The Imagination Movers are a rare breed in the world of child entertainment. It amuses children, and adults can actually like it too. I like the Rich, Scott, Dave, and Smitty's appearance, music, and messages. It's fun. Their videos are definitely produced on a low budget, but the Imagination Movers are charming and fun nonethless.
