As a consumer, I feel cheated because I paid for a video that was advertised as 35 minutes run time, but this DVD & "Let's Go to the Ocean" is actually only 25 minutes including beginning & end credits. That's a big difference for such a short video. The 35 minute run time is printed on the DVD jewel case & on the DVD itself. I went on "kidsmusicalyoga.com" & sent an e-mail asking for an explanation or even an apology, but my e-mail was ignored.
As far as the content of the video, my kids do like it for the songs which are catchy for pre-schoolers. However, I was disappointed by the lack of actual activity/yoga/exercise the video asks of the kids. It's more of a sing-a-long video...I was just expecting more movement.
I just want to give other moms a "heads up" so you know what you're paying for & aren't disappointed.

This DVD is fantastic. After listening to the songs once, my nephew wanted to sing them while driving in the car. I only wished I had the CD so we could play it for a long drive.

My daughter is only 6 months old, and she is already captivated by the music. I can't wait until she is old enough so that we can play, sing, and learn yoga while watching this clever DVD.

I have watched my nephews and nieces with this DVD, and it's obvious they enjoy it. It's perfect for a rainy day because I can entertain them--not just by passively sitting in front of the tv--but by singing and playing yoga indoors. The DVD captures their imagination, while teaching them concepts (such as correct breathing or how we experience a range of emotions) that will guide them through life.

I own both the Jungle and the Ocean DVD. When will the entire series be available?

I ordered this video and Yogakids at the same time.
Kids Musical Yoga is pretty much just a sing along. The children get to do almost no yoga at all. It is especially misleading since the cover shows a girl in the tree pose. When the video was over, I thought that was just the introduction and that the REAL video would start soon. It is a complete scam.

Meanwhile, Yogakids is a fabulous video with real yoga poses, footage of real animals and a wonderful explanation of how to use the poses in our real lives. My 2 1/2 year old loves it. I recommend Yogakids as an excellent alternative to this non-yoga video.

My kids, ages 7-1, love this video! The music is so orriginal and cute! I think that is my favorite part about it. My kids can't get enough of the video! They watched it 4X in a row the first day! I think it is a great stimulating activity for children. Well done! A+++++!

My 19 month old loves it. He can copy the actions and is quite good at yoga. At first I thought he would be too young, but it is a great DVD for all ages. It is nice to be able to put your little one in front of the television and know they are still being active. The music is great!

This is utterly creative! Not only does this program encourage movement and excercise through adapted yoga poses, it allows kids the opportunity to sing and learn about their breathing, relaxation and animals. The songs are fantastic, we literally cannot get them out of our heads. Fun for the whole family! We also have their "Let's go go the Ocean" DVD which is equally fun, creative and educational.

Ai yi yi. My kids (3 1/2 & 2) actually really liked this DVD, even though they weren't interested in participating themselves. Maybe it is because they had never seen actual mental patients before? I am hoping that I can grin and bear it so that I can get them to start doing the movements as well, but I might need a lobotomy first.

I agree with a previous reviewer that Yoga Kids (vol 2) is far better than this series of yoga videos for kids. I found this series (Kids Musical Yoga Lets Go To The Ocean/Jungle) to be disappointing. I like the original music and found myself singing the tunes later (any may consider getting the CD). But there was very little yoga - maybe 6 poses or so (and odd ones at that). There was a lot of talking, way too much talking, by the instructor who had a condescending manner or was just a little weird.

This video had potential if it has way more poses and songs, and way less talking.

I wish I would've read the 1 and 2 stars reviews, they are 100% right, this is a very short DVD, only really 15 to 20 min of a very poorly made sing along dvd, the songs are really not that great, there is no yoga at all, not excersice, for example you will find that they go to the jungle and they see a monkey, so you imagine they will do a yoga pose, NO they just get bunch of bananas that pass along to share.... my kids just look at each other like what do we supose to do now, go grab bananas??? Even the kids in the DVD do not look like they are having a great time, not blame, the teachers are not very energetic happilly conducting them. I just wish I could get my money back.... Good yoga DVD is the ABC yoga made for Yoga Kids with Marsha WenigYoga Kids, Vol. 2: ABC's for Ages 3-6, best yoga Kids DVD, my sons love it

Our children have been captivated by Kids Musical Yoga for an entire year - the jungle is their favorite! They love singing along and learning the poses. They also enjoy incorporating the yoga and music into their daily lives - singing along with the CD on car trips and recreating the poses in their room. It teaches sharing, breathing, exercising and musical development. WE LOVE KIDS MUSICAL YOGA!
