By following Barney and his friends, preschoolers will learn colors, numbers, letters, animals, counting, vocabulary, patterns and more. Along the way kids will be encouraged by Barney to think and explore. To find the princess on this journey, kids must complete 8 games in the Learning Adventure mode. The games range from following numbers in chronological order, to matching objects with correct beginning letters. The Learning Adventure games also enhance spatial skills and hand-eye coordination. Four shorter Learning Zone games focus on patterns, object identification, colors and sequences to keep kids on target with preschool skills. Providing hours of exciting game play, this V.Smile Smartridge works with all V.Smile Learning systems.

This review is from: V Tech - V.Smile Smartridge Barney The Land of Make Believe (Toy)

Like most every game for this system (thus far), the age printed on the box for the would be buyer is not always honest, until now. "Barney: The Land Of Make Believe" (3-5 years) is the lone exception. Also like most the other vsmile games, Barney has excellent character similarities as to the TV show. The Graphics are fine. The music is also similar to the TV show. For easy & immediate play, choose the Learning Zone, all of which are the easiest to play + win, unlike past games & the game play is quite excellent, no boring & pasty short games, the replay value on the Learning Zone is a 10 out of 10, it's done perfectly. The Learning Adventure on the other hand has some unnecessary + boring selections like the 1st (numbers) & last (directions). Yes the game is not perfect, but it has more then enough of fun activates that will not get boring, until your child turns 6. ENJOY!

5.0 out of 5 stars My three year old's favorite, December 31, 2005

We just got my son a VSmile for Christmas. He just turned three and to be honest I thought it would be more of a toy he would "grow into". Along with the game the unit comes with he received the Wiggles, Barney, and Bob the Builder. I had actually read reveiws and had told people to get Dora and Winnie the Pooh but they were unable to find them so they he got these games instead. The Wiggles and Bob the Builder games both lived up to their horrible reviews. Too hard for a three year old and they won't be interesting for an older child. However, the Barney game was a different story. My three year old loves this game. Yes the fundamental learning skill are very basic- counting, colors, letter recognition, etc- but the activities are really geared toward three year olds. There are actually some parts of the game that my son can play all by himself. We are very happy that he has this game to learn on without getting frustrated.

My little guys love these V.Smile games. We have the V.Smile and V.Pocket and it is so nice that they can play the games on both. They love them!
