3.0 out of 5 stars Take it or Leave it, September 14, 2004

By 

SandPit (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Barney's Read With Me Dance With Me (DVD)

My 2 to 5 year old group of family and friends who absoutely LOVE "Songs Fron The Park" invariably get bored with this DVD and walk away from it. A few of the songs excite them somewhat but over all this is a take it or leave it video . . . more or less taken because that's whats in the machine. Give them a choice and they choose something else every time.

Wouldn't waste my money if I was you.

2.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointed., August 1, 2003

This review is from: Barney's Read With Me Dance With Me (DVD)

I was very disappointed to find that this is a 2003 DVD, not an old one. Why does it have the year as 1992? The new Barney and Baby Bop voices are very annoying. I was looking for a particular video with last year's kids... this is NOT it.. Only Baby Bop is on the cover, so there's no way to know..

My 2 and 3 year old boys did not sit to watch this for more than 2 or 3 minutes, I can't explain why. We did sit down to get relaxed towards the end and discovered that this does not end with Barney's Famous "I love you" song... It ended rather apruptly. This might sound silly - but the kids get to knowing when the video is coming to an end... and bedtime is near... :-)

I am also disappointed in the new Barney videos which run like a VHS tape, you cannot jump to favorite songs, you have to fast forward and rewind. This does not work well at bedtime when we need to get closer to the end... they can see what's being fast forwarded past...not good.

VERY DISAPPOINTED! I want the old Barney and the old kids back!

2.0 out of 5 stars Maybe for older children, August 19, 2003

This review is from: Barney's Read With Me Dance With Me (DVD)

I purchased this DVD for my daughter (20 months). She wouldn't even watch it the first few times I played it. We put it away for a couple months and now she will watch parts of it, but prefers other videos more. I can't comment on the voice issue as I don't watch enough Barney to really pay attention, and since we are recent Barney converts having a new cast doesn't bother me. The song are not very engaging though, there is a lot of talking, and really no songs that my daughter would recognize.

How I rated
*Educational value: the DVD does encourage reading and activity.
Entertaining to children: my daughter doesn't really like this video all that much
Entertaining to adults: I can't stand to sit through it
*cost: on par with most videos
general: nothing else really good to say about this, and in fact took a star away because of the annoying ads in the front. YOu have to fast forward through them and you can't simply skip to the menu. I hate this.
