Product Description

Editorial Review

Youngsters who can't get enough validation from the large purple dinosaur will be thrilled to spend time with Magical Friend Barney. The bright plush reptile sits about a foot high, with short feet and arms stretched outward. Buttons in his feet, hands, and back trigger one of three actions when pressed and make his green belly light up with blinking hearts, music notes, stars, and more. Press the buttons in his toes and Barney will ask you to dance with him and proceed to play about one minute of music. Pressing his hands encourages a sing-along to either "I Love You," "If All the Raindrops," or "Everyone Is Special." Giving the dino a big squeeze activates the hug sensor in his back and inspires him to vocalize all sorts of things about love and friendship. While there is no volume control, he isn't overly loud, thanks to his ample cushioning. And once a child puts him down, he automatically shuts off to help conserve the battery power (three AAs are included). --Pam Lauer

My 20 month old daughter shakes her head and dances to this toy for hours at a time. Barney teaches them how to say words and sounds and sings to them. The light show that appears on the belly keeps their attention.

My daughter loves this Barney.
We took a trip to [our local store] to buy a birthday present with a gift card she got for her birthday and I was determined to let her pick what she wanted. After a long cruise through the store it was the Magical Barney that she stayed with for half an hour on the floor just playing with him. My decision was made. All the other toys she had played with were thrown on the shelf after 5 minutes. She sat on the floor with Barney and sang with him as well as talked to him like he was really there. She was definitely satisfied with Barney.
To this day, she has tea parties with Barney and still talks to him all the time.
Great job to the people who came up with that idea.

Sincerely,
Diana Wilt

My daughter absolutely loves this Barney toy, but unfortunately the batteries go out after a day or 2. Quite ridiculous! The lights get stuck on and the next morning - Barney just won't dance and sing!!
