Sing and Dance with Barney [VHS]

Now, my granddaughter is only 20 months old but she adores Barney. She sings and dances along with him and it is amazing how many of the dances and songs she remembers. It is so cute so here her little voice singing the songs right along with them ... and at times she will out of nowhere pop up and start singing one of the songs ... and dancing one of the dances ... Now, her Dad can't stand Barney, and was totally against her watching Barney to begin with ... but as she has learned so much from it and is so cute ... he has gotten to appreciate all she has learned and I have noticed him putting the DVD on for her from time-to-time ... NOW THAT IS A RECOMMENDATION!!! It was also cute for my daughter and I, to see so many of the kids that had grown up ... as she still has VHS Barney videos that were her son's that are almost 10 years old. Barney never goes out of date or out of style.

I ordered this DVD based on the great reviews it got from other customers. As much as Barney can drive us crazy with his sugary love, It has been the biggest hit with my 20 month old grand-daughter. We, her mom, dad, grandpa and little Miss S have watched it countless times..It really grows on a person.. Barney and friends are sweet with such wonderful messages and learning songs ,dances and experiences for this nearly 2 yr. old. She asks for it to be played over and over and over. We finally had to stop watching it at nap time because she was so mesmerized by it and wouldn't drift off to sleep (bad habit anyway at nap or bedtime!) I think this video has made her more confident , happy and increased her understanding of people and places beyond her world at home. She also loves "Barney's colorful World...many of the same songs. I highly recommend it!

I should know, I think I've gotten them all through Netflix at some point. This is my 20 month old son's very fave. There is no filler, they basically jump from one song to the next so even a child with zero attention span like mine won't get bored. The production value is high and all the songs are so cute! Defnitely worth adding to your library.If your child is a Barney freak, also try searching for Sing Along with Barney, which is a CD personalized to many children's names. For example if your child's name is Michael, Barney will put the word Michael over 80 times in the songs within the CD. They have a lot of names out there. SO CUTE!

I bought this for my 12 month old son who isn't really into television. But I noticed he would take an interest in anything with small children in it, anything that had singing and anything with puppets. This DVD fits ALL criteria and he will sit completely still and quiet for 20 minutes at a time! Looks like Barney is now a hit at our house and I hope to find more great DVDs like this one in the future. Oh and another huge reason I like this DVD is because it appears to be a little "older" version of Barney that features the original actor voicing Barney, NOT the horrible and annoying voice that is Barney today!

Purchased this DVD to use in my laptop during travel and to have an additional option to the VHS tape that we currently use. My 16 month old grand daughter absolutely loves Barney! "Barney" is one of her first words. She is high energy, but putting Barney on settles her down and keeps her attention, yet is educational and teaches children how to interact with each other as well. I love that this came with a CD as will use in the car, because she loves to sing in the car as well. When she is getting antsy in the car sometimes only singing helps soothe her and the CD will be a great help when we are running out of songs!My only issue with the DVD was when playing on my laptop during a flight it kept freezing. I tried cleaning it as some smudges were present. Not sure if was due to the flight turbulence or my laptop, but other DVDs seemed to work fine, I have since tried it at home in my DVD player and don't seem to have further issues. Was odd that this occurred and hope to not have further issues with it

My grandson will watch this video a hundred times on Netflix so we bought it for him and he can watch it in the car now too. He was just a wee little thing and started doing the actions in the songs with the kids and Barney. Oh how he loves Barney! Clapping on his knees, on his belly... stomping his feet, clapping his hands.... he knows all the songs and all the actions. He is 22 mos now and is starting to sing the songs as well. When he is sick or grumpy, this usually cheers him right up or calms him right down. God bless the purple dinosaur!

Years ago, my son had a 1995 Barney VHS he loved, but when we switched to DVD, we got rid of our videos - and as my son grew, Barney became "obsolete" anyway. Along came the little sister, and the search for good, old Barney videos.Because of the cover (i.e. dinosaurs, no children), I was afraid this DVD wouldn't be what I'm looking for. But it is exactly the same video as my son loved years ago! They probably couldn't use the children on the cover because of copyright.Same characters, same great songs... and "bingo" is my daughter's favorite song (just like it was her brother's).Some things don't get old.

The kids enjoy the entertaining and engaging music while I get a smile out of the nostoligic visits from characters that appeared on the show in years passed.This is a great video to turn on when we are stuck indoors for the day the action songs like Mr Kickerbocker get them moving and dancing while while classic nursery rhymes like Itsy Bitsy Little Spider and Twinkle twinkle little star have them singing along right away. Definitely helps us break the indoor boredom that can pop up in the cold winter months or after a few rainy days.
