The 10 Best VeggieTales Episodes and Movies

Raising Christian kids can be really hard. When my kids were young, it was a struggle to find shows that built good moral character.

We watched a lot of different VeggieTales episodes and VeggieTales movies to get us through that season of life. We occasionally still watch VeggieTales Videos when we teach the children’s class at our church or when my 10-year-old son feels like watching one.

Did you know that there are 50 VeggieTales episodes available?  I’m talking about the original VeggieTales episodes. I would classify some of these episodes as VeggieTales Movies since some of them are longer than a short episode.

We haven’t watched all 50 of them but we’ve watched a good amount. Today, I want to share our favorite VeggieTales episodes and movies.

What are the VeggieTales Episodes About?

VeggieTales is about animated fruit and vegetable characters that star in stories showing good moral character based on a Christian lifestyle.

The stories re-create Bible stories and are aimed at children ages three to eight years old. Although you can watch them at any age. I’m often convicted by them as an adult. As Christians, we are striving to be like Jesus and that takes a lifelong effort.

VeggieTales Characters Names

Just like any type of show or movie, there is a main set of characters. Here are the VeggieTales characters that you can expect to see in these VeggieTales Episodes and Movies.

• Larry The Cucumber
• Bob The Tomato
• LarryBoy
• Junior Asparagus
• Laura Carrot
• Petunia Rhubarb

The 10 Best VeggieTales Episodes

1. VeggieTales: Are You, My Neighbor?

I put this as number one on our list because it’s such a great message of loving your neighbor. This VeggieTales show teaches a Biblical perspective on loving others.  

This is available to purchase on Amazon. As of right now, they have it available on a VeggieTales VHS and VeggieTales DVD.

2.  VeggieTales: The Toy That Saved Christmas

This is a great VeggieTales video for Christmas time. Honestly, it’s fun to watch at any time of the year. It gets the kids really excited about Christmas for the right purpose.

It kind of takes their eyes off their wants and gives them a real understanding of why we celebrate Christmas. This is available to purchase on Amazon. As of right now, they have it available on a VeggieTales VHS and VeggieTales DVD.

3. VeggieTales: Rack, Shack, and Benny

Peer pressure is a huge problem in the world today. This VeggieTales video is based on Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in Daniel 3. It helps kids learn to stand up for what is right even if other people take a different path. 

This is available to purchase on Amazon. As of right now, they have it available on a VeggieTales VHS and VeggieTales DVD.

4. VeggieTales: LarryBoy and The Rumor Weed

The words we speak are so important. In this VeggieTales episode, the characters learn how quickly rumors can get started. The rumor starts spreading like a weed and they have a hard time stopping it from spreading.  

This is available to purchase on Amazon. As of right now, they have it available on a VeggieTales DVD.

5. VeggieTales: Esther…The Girl Who Became Queen

The Lord calls us to be courageous. If you know the story of Esther, you know that she had to make hard choices. She had to use courage to help her do what was right.  In this VeggieTales show, the characters get a good lesson in courage.  

This is available to purchase on Amazon. As of right now, they have it available on a VeggieTales VHS and VeggieTales DVD.

6. VeggieTales: A Snoodle’s Tale

This VeggieTales video is such a great lesson in self-worth. We are constantly torn down and need to remember that we belong to the Lord. The characters in this VeggieTales episode learn that they don’t need to be discouraged by others. Their creator made them wonderful and talented. 

This is available to purchase on Amazon. As of right now, they have it available on a VeggieTales DVD.

7. VeggieTales: Lord of the Beans

We all are blessed with gifts. We need to choose to use those gifts for good. The VeggieTales characters in this episode go on a quest to see what special gifts they have and how to use them for good. 

This is available to purchase on Amazon. As of right now, they have it available on a VeggieTales DVD.

8. VeggieTales: Abe and the Amazing Promise

Oh, how I love the story of Abraham. It is such an amazing example of patience. Patience is such an important quality to obtain. We deal with it multiple times a day. The VeggieTales characters learn that God’s promise is well worth the wait.

This is available to purchase on Amazon. As of right now, they have it available on a VeggieTales DVD.

9. VeggieTales: Saint Nicholas

Another awesome story centered around Christmas. I love this VeggieTales episode because it shows where Saint Nicholas originated from.

He definitely wasn’t the Saint Nicholaus we hear of today around Christmas. The characters find out the true joy of blessing others during Christmas and any time of the year. 

This is available to purchase on Amazon. As of right now, they have it available on a VeggieTales DVD.

10. VeggieTales: Sweetpea Beauty

Just like David, we should all desire to be after God’s own heart. Knowing that the beauty inside is what matters most. In this VeggieTales show, the characters learn that God made them in a special way. That true beauty is how the Lord views us. 

This is available to purchase on Amazon. As of right now, they have it available on a VeggieTales DVD.
