In "It's Bugsy" we meet the three guinea pigs used to film the part of Bugsy, the guinea pig with googly eyes. He's really one of the stars of the film, so it was fun to see behind-the-scenes footage of the actors with the guinea pigs. (Having had a guinea pig in the past, I was impressed that the sounds made by the animated version and the real version all sounded very realistic.)
As with all Sandler movies, there had to be an outtakes reel. In "Laughter is Contagious: Outtakes" we see what goes on during, between, and after takes when you have fun actors, kids, and animals working together. Nobody can remember their lines.
"Cutting Room Floor: Deleted Scenes" included twelve scenes that didn't make it into the final cut. Most of them were fairly short, but didn't really add much to the film. My favorite was the "Broadway Musical (Extended)," which makes me giggle thinking of Pearce (star of films like Memento) singing, dancing and generally stealing the show.
"Dylan & Cole Sprouse: Blu-ray is Suite!" is basically a Blu-ray commercial starring the cast of The Suite Life.
I think my two girls (ages four and eight) enjoyed Bedtime Stories more than my wife or I, but this was definitely up their alley. It's nice to see Disney staying true to form and creating imaginative, kid-friendly productions. Be sure to check it out at your local rental store or online.

I found it boring and predictable. Some scenes gave me a chuckle, but it was hardly funny.
