My two year old twins love this video. They especialy like the please and thank you song. We have been working on thier table manners and getting them to say please, thank you and your welcome and the video does a great job reenforcing what we are teaching.

Like the previous reviewer, I have twin daughters, and they just love this Barney video, what with its great songs and dances. And the "Please and Thank You" song is terrific. If you'd like to see Barney at his "Jerry Lee Lewis" best, you need to see him work out on the keys in this "Best Manners."

There are other songs, too, and they're all done very well and appropriate for children. The kids in the video are so good and well mannered - a wonderful role model for kids today.

Highly recommended!!!

This review is from: Barney's Best Manners [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This was one of the first videos my year old son watched back in 1997. Our copy was destroyed when he was 3 and his curious baby sister unravelled it, so I'm glad I was able to find it in 2009. This was his favorite of all the Barney videos and he giggled with delight, even when watching it over and over again... so there's no doubt it seemed magical to him. Yes, now that he is 12, he will be mortified that I have brought it back from the dead for his youngest sister to watch, but I am sure she will love it just like he did. Maybe even say...Mommy, may I PLEASE watch it again? Thank you! (It's a video on "manners").
