We have multiple Barney videos and this is my daughter's absolute favorite. Not only is this entertaining, but it is also educational. They discuss the different dances that each country does, as well as the food and celebrations that each country has. Being a dancer for my entire life, I was even impressed with this video and its choreography. Tracy, Ben, Barney, BJ, and Baby Bop travel around the world to experience all the different celebrations. Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro has little ones doing the Samba. Ireland has 4 incredible Irish dancers doing "Riverdance" style dancing. (Everyone that watches it is simply amazed at their footwork!) Then they go to Japan, Africa, and India, all the while showing you their dances. A couple of the songs are the same ("If You're Happy and you Know It"...."We Like Colors"....), but that's it! This video is well worth the money! My daughter figured out how to change the DVDs, and I think she scratched this one, so it won't work anymore. I actually came on to buy another one and to tell you just how great this video is.

As you may know, I was disappointed with Dino Mite Birthday. However, Celebrating Around the World makes up for it with the Imagination focus back in Barney. Anyway, this new release (that's right, it's not rehashed) has Ben and Tracy trying to figure out what to do with their party and Barney helps by taking them to all sorts of countries to see how they celebrate, like Carnaval in Brazil and Saint Patrick's Day in Ireland. If you and/or your child love Barney, I'd highly recommend this video.

How many times can the people at Barney put a new title on an old video? If you want to save some money, get the older "Barney: What A World We Share" for only a dollar or so here on Amazon.
