Summary: Great Bright Educational DVD
Review: This is the first Barney Disc I have bought. Barney is not well known in Australia but my daughter (almost 3 years old) loves the DVD. She dances around and joins in the activities.

I was particularly pleased with the bright vibrant colours and the clarity. The educational subjects (ie 123 & ABC) were varied and well thought out.

Great value for money with the added material, interactive games, previews on other Barney shows.

I will definitely be purchasing more !

Summary: Captivating
Review: This is the first Barney DVD I bought for my 18 month old daughter. She absolutely loves it. She watches it only about 10 times a day! Now even I know all the words. The songs are catchy and educational, with dancey rhythms. She has put aside Sesame Street and Blues Clues for this one. This DVD keeps her busy for extended periods of time. When I invite my friends over who have little ones too, they have their own party with this DVD. I absolutely recommend it for keeping the very active 18 month old busy and educated.

Summary: Brilliant
Review: I think this is one of Barney's best works. Highly recommended for ages 2+ because some topics require conceptual understanding. Many things are portrayed here : colours, alphabets, shapes & all in a very catchy, unforgettable manner. My 2 yr old is extremely good with his colours & shapes due to this (now he is 3) & also loves reading books. There is emphasis on reading & a children's story (Little Red Riding Hood) is re-enacted flawlessly. The kids are mostly natural & don't over-act much. I find myself watching & enjoying with my son too. The DVD has other menu options such a book read aloud by Barney which captivates my son. I don't think I've seen him blink as few times as when watching this DVD! Excellent & definitely worth many watches!!

Summary: Fun and Educational
Review: I purchased this first Barney video for my now 22 month old daughter 2 months ago. This is at a time when she's really learning to speak our language, and she has learned quite a bit from this video. She loves Baby Bop and sings along with Itsy Bitsy Spider, and is even more thrilled when I join in. The alphabet sequence is long, but that's a good thing because it reinforces what she is already learning about letters. There are many songs in the video, and the scenery changes with each song so it keeps her interested and entertained. She also loves to dance along with the kids and the characters. There is an underlying storyline which she does not understand, but I know she will grow into it. I highly recommend this video for your toddler.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An excellent DVD packed with features.
Review: I am 2 and a half years old and I love Barney. This DVD is brilliant, you get the film, songs, reviews of other videos, games and more besides. I enjoy watching it again and again and again...... PS My Dad says it is really good value for money too.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: What Titus Andronicus was to Shakespeare...
Review: this flaccid entry is to the legend that is Barney. There is little trace of Thematic coherency. Barney somehow seems to believe that just because he is purple and cute, and has a a pacifying effect upon children, that he can ride roughshod over the principles of Aristotlean drama. If, perchance, Barney had every deemed it worthy of his oh-so-fought-after time to take a look at the Poetics, he might have learned that just stringling together a bunch of episodes does not a drama make. Plot? Character? Action? Two words of advice for the wordsmiths who crafted this leaden lump: Don Quixote.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great DVD
Review: My kids have several Barney movies, but this one is the best of all. Very educational. The kids love it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Mesmerized my 20 mo. old!
Review: As the mother of a very active 20 month old boy I highly recommend this video. While teaching the values of reading, counting and learning in general, this program provides a colorful and fun background for the subject of going to school. My son will watch nearly the entire 50 minutes and always begs to watch the "I love you" song over and over. If you're looking for which Barney movie to buy, your child should love this one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This one is really good!
Review: reasons to buy this DVD

1. Educational
2. Original (no repeat songs from other Barney DVD's)
3. The kids are still kids (No teenagers singing "Where is Thumbkin")
4. Bright, bubbly and brilliant

Worth every cent

Rating: 5 stars
