My son is 15 months old and loves the Disney Sing Sing Along videos that feature the children singing. His favorite is Beach Party and I thought he would love the Animal Kingdom video. There is to much time between songs to keep his attention. Also, Flick gives short educational updates that break up the flow of the video. My friend's three year old daughter also found the video boring and I can't even give it away. In addition the quality of the photography involving lighting does not meet Disney's normally high standards. Maybe older kids would like it, but none of the adults that have watched along have cared for it.

This sing along tape is pretty uninspired, and for the undemanding kid. Or for the Disney Sing Along Songs completist.

In this show hosted by Flik from A Bug's Life, you do get to see Disney's Animal Kingdom from Walt Disney World Florida, but the songs aren't really too impressive- either A Bug's Life or The Lion King related. Also, the words on screen seem to be a little delayed making it hard to sing along to.

If you want to get your kids started with Disney Sing Along Songs I'd recommend another one.

Suggestions: Friend Like Me from Aladdin, Zip A Dee Doo Dah from Song Of The South.

This was really disappointing. We have all the other live action Disney sing alongs, in preparation for taking our 4 year olds to Disney World in February, and this one was not up to par. Fun at Disneyland is much better, as is Campout at Disney world. I didn't mind hearing about the different animals, but as soon as they announced the contest among the children to photograph the most dangerous animal, I just had to roll my eyes and *sigh* -- I knew a lecture about human encroachment was coming. Just in case anyone from Disney ever reads this -- I don't buy a Disney product for a sermon on environmentalism -- I can get that in the public schools. I buy Disney videos so that my children can enjoy the magic of Disney. They would have done better to stick with their established routine and not try to teach a lesson that any preschooler would have had to have been raised in a very dark cave not to have heard before.

We have all the live action Sing Alongs and this one is my son's favorite. True, there are some breaks in the singing but we love hearing about the animals. Our VHS copy is about worn out and we were excited to see it released on DVD. If you have an animal lover then this is a good video.

I had checked this out of the library for my nephew. I thought that it would be like the other Walt Disney World Sing Alongs, Disney's Sing Along Songs - Beach Party at Walt Disney World and Sing Along Songs - Campout at Walt Disney World but I was wrong. There were barely any glimpses of Disney characters, just Mickey and Minnie at the beginning and then an (annoying) animated Flick between the songs.

There were long pauses between the songs, which caused the movie to drag on. And the songs...(Welcome to Harambe, On Safari, I Wanna Be Like You, You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby, Walk the Dinosaur, It's a Bug's World, Asia, He Lives in You, and Circle of Life)...there were a few that had to do with Disney, but I was disappointed. Some tried to be cute and change the words to traditional Disney songs and the rest didn't seem to have much to do with Disney. Maybe I'm just used to the old Sing Alongs, but it bothered me.

Kids who like animals a lot may like this DVD, because of the scenes between songs, but I think that if you are looking for a Disney Sing Along or footage of Walt Disney World there are better choices.

The twin girls are not as crazy about this one as the others I've purchased & recently reviewed but they did enjoy it a couple of times & the boys seems to enjoy the Safari adventure nature of it & wildlife viewpoint! Great item for boys!

My 3 year old first saw this at around 26 months and still enjoys it. She LOVES animals and the Lion King (I let her watch LK 1 1/2), which is probably why. Even though some of the reviews on here were unfavorable, I just knew she would really like this one because of those two things. She also loves Mickey but was not bothered in the least that he isn't the star of this show, and she really likes the host Flik.

This video was filmed in The Animal Kingdom at the WDW Resort and features actual shows and attractions from that park. The scenes, characters and music are very good. It is more educational than just pure fun like the other Sing-Alongs since it touches on not only animals, but also African and Asian culture. The only part I don't like is "I Wanna Be Like You." The people dressed up as gorillas look REEEALLY strange... but it doesn't bother her, of course.

The songs are:
Welcome to Harambe
On Safari
I Wanna Be Like You (The Jungle Book)
You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby
Walk the Dinosaur (Was, Not Was)
It's a Bug's World (Based on It's a Small World)
Asia (Based on the Siamese Cat Song)
He Lives in You (The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride)
Circle of Life (The Lion King)

I ordered this video for my 2 year old daughter, as she already had the Disneyland Fun one and watched it daily. As a former Disney Cast Member, this video kinda made me want to cry because I miss Disney World so much! This dvd is awesome and I think it will definitely be our new "everyday" video!

this movie gets viewed at least once a month by my son who owns almost every child movie you can think of. He likes this sing along and loves Disneyland fun. I as a child used to watch Disneyland fun and Disneyworld Beach party daily. Sing Alongs are great because they get kids attention as soon as you put them on vs. a movie with a story. These Sing Alongs are also great for parents because its a movie you don't mind watching with your kids.

My kids love it although they could have incorporated the characters into it more. My daughter always asks where minnie is. It is worth addint to the collection.
