Two videos I have come across are:

  • From the Jesus A Kingdom without Frontiers Series by CCC of America - The Story of Zacchaeus.
  • Quigley Band: Short Legs & Tall Tales by Zondervan Corp. for ages 2-7.  I have not viewed these. Has anyone seen these and can comment on their content etc...?

Response

The Quigley Band videos are very old and were only ever done on VHS. Not recommended.

The Jesus Videos (CCC) look very interesting. They are Italian owned, Japanese animated Roman Catholic videos that originally appeared on Italian Mondo Tv in 95-96. 25 episodes.

They are easy to find at various websites. Oddly enough, CCC's main website only sells their OT videos.

Update: The Jesus: A Kingdom Without Frontiers - see review of this series here in the Video Reviews forum.

DVD - “Zacchaeus” (New Superbook Series)

Publisher's Description:
Chris is excited about his upcoming baptism; so much so that he forgets to show up at Joy's volunteer event. Superbook whisks them back to meet a tax collector named Zacchaeus in ancient Jericho. The kids are amazed to watch the transformation of a sinner like Zacchaeus when he meets Jesus. Joy sees that Jesus came to seek and save the lost--including herself! Joy realizes that she also needs to accept Jesus as her Savior--just as Zacchaeus did and begins to understand why Chris is so excited about being baptized. Joy prays to receive Jesus and then shares the good news with her parents. Luke 19:10.  Lesson:  Jesus came to save each and every one of us and call us to repentance. (Animated - approx. 28 mins)
