All About John Deere for Kids Part 3 Both new and vintage John Deere tractors set to the peppy music of James Coffey. We visit the Thresherman Show in Northwest Iowa where John Deere is the featured tractor (over 300 on display). We see steam-powered tractors, thrashing machines, corn shellers, saw mills, and 15 Johnny Poppers plowing with everything up to a six-bottom plow pulled by powerful 820. We travel to the forests for British Columbia to see Feller Bunchers, Skidders, Knuckleboom Loaders, and Log Harvesters in action. Then we go to a log mill and see how trees become lumber. Plus more fun with Otto who’s always in a jam.
Customer Review: Awesome Videos!
We have all four DVDs and my son, who is three, loves them (and my husband, too!)! He knows all the tractor models, names, the details of the tractors and more! He will watch these John Deere DVDs over any disney cartoon any day.
