I remembered watching this as a little kid back at the 90s when it was released on PBS, my all time favorite channel on TV and I've always loved it ever since, but a few years have passed and I've seemed to have forgotten it after all these years.
However, that doesn't take away the fact that I loved it so much. The premise is very decent (two kids (along with their friend in the third season of the show) use a magical pearl to transport themselves to a fantasy land with talking dragons and learn some valuable lessons about sharing, caring, and being nice to people while having some creative adventures). The characters are enjoyable and so cute. Max and Emmie are appealing, Kassie, the pink dragon, was so cute and her lines are great while Zak and Wheezie are hilariously likable. Even Wheezie's "Love it!" was very funny. The only character that didn't hold up for me was Ord, the blue dragon. He was very endearing in the first season, but at the second and third seasons, his whining was very irritating.
On the bright side, the music is very charming. The theme song was so catchy, but not in an irritating way. The stores are very easy to following in the first two seasons, but in the third season, it becomes repetitive by repeating the same formula.
The animation is not that great, but I do like the background art and some of the colors, though.
Overall, Dragon Tales, although flawed, is a pretty good children's show since it was target at an audience and would always be recommended to fans of PBS.

As an adult, I can't honestly say that this is the greatest piece of art that was ever made! But, my kids enjoy it. It's harmless fun that little kids can enjoy, and parents can rest assured that there is nothing bad in it. My kids like, it's "safe", and that's good enough for me
Another reviewer seems to dislike or not understand children's television. There are so many shows today showing unpleasant and inappropriate behavior to our children, even under the guise of Y7 rated shows. Most of the cartoons on Toon Disney, for instance, revolve around the hero of the show defeating bad guys, who almost universally do and say mean things to the hero or other innocent people. I dislike my children watching these shows, as they don't need to be exposed to that kind of mean behavior influence. Yes, the hero always wins, but I'm not sure the kids always understand that almost everything the bad guy says is something that they should not say. On Dragon Tales, the themes usually include a problem that requires teamwork to solve, and always have a nice ending. I have never had problems with my kids emulating a bad behavior from that show.
This is a show that stresses problem solving for young
children.
A six yr. old girl and her four yr old brother travel with the help of a
dragon scale to a Dragonland and interact/play with four young dragons. The
dragons' teacher helps direct them when they are having difficulty with
their challenges. The music is fairly repetitive, and can be a bit much
for
parents, but it is great for kids. This show is a nice change from much of
the programming aimed at these kids.
Dragon Tales is the kind of show that grabs most kid's attention and holds it for the duration. The show attempts to teach things like courtesy and empathy while the main characters have adventures in a fantasy world where dragons are the norm and children are rare, exotic creatures. Voice work is nice and the general look and feel of Dragonland is nice. Though the animation is not outstanding, I doubt kids notice or care how many frames it takes for a scene fade. I can't believe the other user comment I read that totally puts down the show. I'm sure most adults would find little entertainment value in a show that targets such a young audience, but that says nothing about the quality of the show for young kids. If you're looking for something clean and light for your toddler (and up), Dragon Tales is a great choice.
