It's refreshing to see a man with integrity. We watch your videos with my grandson, and he learns alot about tractors etc. It's pretty funny to hear a just now two year old say Excavator, Swather, Backhoe etc. Thanks for your videos. We really do appreciate them! God Bless you, and your family!

[@MsJENelson]

Introduced my Canadian grands a few years ago and they love this!!!! Thank you !!!!

[@Melissa-bw7ku]

I just came across Hudsons Playground in search of real tractor videos for my 2 yr old grandson who absolutely LOVES tractors, construction equipment and all kinds of machinery. Since we started watching last week, this is our morning routine. He could watch your videos over and over again all day. He says tractor a hundred times a day, and when the ads play he loses it, because he want to watch your videos! Thank you for creating the channel and these videos. There is nothing out there like this. It's interesting to see a 2 yr old so into something that you really think it's going to be his calling some day! Keep those videos coming! We do watch them logged in as "guest" on our TV, so unfortunately our stats won't show correctly but we are watching daily!!!

[@kathiethompson6719]

Ha ha...our 2 1/2 year old grandson is the same way!

[@tiffanyszadyr9052]

We love your channel! My 3 year old son is beyond obsessed with tractors/ any and all farm equipment and your show brings him such pure joy! Thank you for doing what you love and sharing it on KZbin!

[@rykersmimi]

My 5 yr old grandson loves all your videos & he has learned more than I could ever teach him about farming & tractors. He's even impressed quite a few farmers in our area when he knows what which tractors are which & what all the attachments are called & used for. Even was offered a job when he's old enough to work on the farm by one of the impressed farmers lol Like you and Hudson, my little guy has been fascinated with tractors since he could pick which toys to play with....always picked the tractors & farm sets. So thank you for all your hard work doing this channel and the other channels as well. Thank you for sharing your family, your experience, your humor and your love of farming with all of us and for teaching the kids so much valuable information. Much love to your beautiful family 💜

[@lydiaquinn2892]

That’s so great that you can now do what you love! The farm is awesome. We’ve been enjoying these videos for about 18 months now. Keep’em comin

[@allenr5781]

Kudos to you on such wonderful videos! My almost three year old son loves your videos and watches them every day, starting first thing in the morning as he comes downstairs and waits for breakfast to be made. Elliot is a very shy and timid child who so far hasn't got to the point of playing with other children and instead avoids them, but it's always heartwarming to hear him say that he wants to go to the farm and play with Hudson! My wife and I enjoy not only watching your videos but also the look on our son's face as he watches them. It's priceless. Also, if you still visit other farms and ever happen to be in the San Diego area, my brother has an avocado farm with some farm machinery (including tractor). All of us, especially our son, would be incredibly elated to see you there. In the meantime, thanks again for what you do and all the best wishes for many years of great videos ahead!

[@kathiethompson6719]

We love your videos! Our 2 1/2 year-old grandson requests tractors every day that he's here and we have your videos on for hours. He likes watching the kids drive tractors, get muddy, fix things. Thanks for making your videos and all of the work you AND your family do to make this happen. I like this "open heart" informative video that you've put on here. We live in Arlington, Texas and look forward to anything new from your channel. Keep them coming!

[@isaiahpowda]

Thank you. My boy who just turned 3. Loves and watches your tractors on the daily. And he plays at the same time. Thank you for all you do. 💓💓

[@danalloyd5462]

My five year old stumbled across your videos of you and Hudson and LOVES your videos! I love your videos and content because 1) he loves tractors and you bring them to life for him, 2) seeing your son playing right along with you makes it even more relatable for him t want to keep watching, and 3) I love your approach to life and this gaming and it makes me laugh, unexpectedly at times!! I very, very much appreciate this video because it does give some background into the who and the what and even the why! We are happier to support you and your channels because of this very video!! (I didn't know you had 3 channels exactly, but my son did lol. I am very encouraged by your story and your tidbits for life and encouragement offered here. Really! I even had my 19 year old watch and listen to what you said being a "non-famous" in the sports or entertainment genres and your personal experience with this specific adventure in your lives. Not to get spooky, but my son would love to come to Texas to see you guys and another KZbinr he loves also lives in Texas. So, for a five year old, he wants us all to move to Texas (which is so ironic because we really have given serious thought to a move to Texas for over 12-13 years!) I would also like to say thank you to your wife and brother for doing the videos!! I, as a professional mom turned "home mom" for 4 unbiological children, I see and appreciate your efforts here...AND I would love to send you hugs for the days when you think, "Ugh, I don't want to today!" Much love and support to you r crew!!

[@stephaniewalnetski7707]

My 4-year-old son and I love watching your videos. He absolutely loves tractors. I am originally from the country in Southern Pennsylvania and I appreciate you bringing this content to youtube teaching youngsters about farming. There is so much inappropriate content on youtube so I love how down-to-earth and educational your videos are. Keep up the awesome work. Stay safe. God bless.

My son who is almost 3 LOVES Hudson’s playground. He will go get his iPad and say “Hudson, Holly, & Dad”. He loves watching the videos, he laughs out loud and has learned a lot. Thank you for making videos that are fun, educational, and outside the norm for a toddler to watch.

[@allthumbs46456]

Thank you so much for providing such rich, wholesome content in a world that is lacking good quality shows for kids. My three-year-old loves everything you do, and I’m so glad you’ve put in the time and the effort to make your channels so perfect. Thank you again!

[@user-hm1yu4be4r]

I have a daycare in my home and our favorite to watch is Hudsons playground!!. We love your show and my grandson who is 4 watches nothing else but your show. We appreciate all your hard work, and we see how much fun you have. Just wanted to thank you. We are forever fans.

[@gretchenlehn1992]

Thank you so much for your fun video! My son has been watching your videos pretty much every day for over a year now! He became obsessed with tractors since he’s been about 9months old and yes I couldn’t find any videos that catered to little kids that we really like! They are awesome, clean, and entertaining for him! I never have to worry what he’s watching when he’s watching your videos!! Thank you again!

[@carrierogers4653]

You are right, the other tractor videos are not great. It took too long for us to discover you guys and we are now obsessed! Thank you for these!

[@lindsayjames581]

Your videos on Hudson’s Playground have saved many a car ride for us! Our 20 month old hates riding and one day I found your channel on KZbin to keep him entertained. He’s been hooked ever since. He loves all things tractors. He’s currently watching one of your videos and waving at Hudson as he watches him drive by on his little tractor.

[@candymcadams4025]

My grandson is 2 and he loves your videos. We run a foster home and we have adopted 8 children and have 2 biological . We live on a farm and we love your channel because it really teaches our children what real dads are like. So many of our kids have no father figure before they come to us. Your an amazing dad and we truly love your videos. .

[@briansawdo6245]

I just knew about the regular Hudsons playground. My grandson loves tractors. He will be two in October. He always wants to ride the lawn tractor all the time with me of course. I will check out your other channels as well. When you said you’re a shy person and don’t talk a lot, just watching you interact with your kids. I don’t think there’s any shyness there at all. Your kids will be so much better off knowing that you care to spend time with them and then you also videotape those experiences for us as well. Thank you for that.

[@ccul8339]

My two kids love the videos and so do all my friend's kids. Love the backstory and your business model. Thank you from one farm Dad to another

I like watching your videos with my 3 y.o. I had blippi on one day and I just couldn’t stomach him. This is much more grounded. I grew up around old A’s, Oliver 77’s, G’s, 4020s, etc. I would watch real life construction equipment for kids on vhs until I burned it up. Haha.

[@amandat5739]

My little boy is 2 years old and he absolutely loves tractors. He runs around saying John Deere, john deere. And of course, he's got every tractor out. But his favorite show is your show. We watch it though out the day. And it's funny because when he wants to watch your show. He says Holly, by the way, I think it's wonderful. That a father is out there spending as much time as you do and with the things that you guys do. We turn around and do the same thing, and my boy absolutely loves it. I just want to say thank you so much, and your merchandise is great. My boy has a couple of your shirts. My next item I'm getting him is a hoodie. I just want to say thank you so much. We absolutely love your videos. Thank you guys.

[@hudsonsfarmandtractor]

Thanks Steve! We have 8 4020s so the names (Where we purchased them from) helps us identify better which tractor is which. As some just tend to do things better (or worse) than others sometimes.

[@adamseidel8901]

My three year old son absolutely loves your vids, and I'll admit that I love them too, mostly because they bring my son so much joy. I do have two questions, if you see this and want to answer, that'd be great! First, the island and the lake- is that part of your property a natural formation, or is that something that was made by your family for irrigation purposes? Second, I notice you have mule jacks scattered through your fields. Are those for oil or natural gas and how active are they in terms of production?

[@lisamaeb09]

How would one contact you? Do you have an email? My youngest son is obsessed with your videos and watches them anytime the tv is on. Which has now led to my dad (papa) having to watch all your KZbin videos. 😂 my dad is a full time farmer and it has been his only job his entire life. He is the most genuinely kind person I’ve ever known. I’m writing this comment because I heard you mention making visits to other farms and we would love to invite you to visit our family farm. We farm 30 miles south of Wichita, KS right along the interstate. I think you would really love it here. Our farm properties are unique in so many ways and my dad can tell you so much history about our properties, along with showing you all the arrowheads, Buffalo skulls, etc that he has found around our unique farm. It would be an easy drive for you and if you enjoy the farm/country views as much as you portray, I think you would truly enjoy the trip up here. My dad would love nothing more to spend a day hanging around someone else that enjoys all things farming as much as he does. Anyways, this comment turned into a novel and I did not intend that to happen, sorry. If you’re serious about wanting to visit some farms, please let me know how to get in contact.

We are wondering if y’all have been through several or if it’s just the 2 that we have seen?? Y’all go through lots of water but wasn’t sure if it has been the same old tractor?
