A Little Misleading

"Due to the title I assumed that this DVD would primarily focus on the alphabet, something my daughter and I have been working on over the last couple of months, you can imagine my surprise when the entire first 21 mins of the video was just shapes. Of course if you're more careful then I am about reading the information and finding out everything about the DVD, then you will find yourself with a great video for learning a lot about shapes and a little about your ABC's. My daughter knows all her shapes so it didn't help us much, but I will save it for my son for when we are working on his shapes. Also I like to know how long these things are and can't seem to find the info, this DVD is 126 mins long including special features, it has a bonus episode that is 30 mins long."

Some ABCs, Shapes and Colors!

"Yes, the title is misleading and the ABC's is just a third of this video. However, What most people don't know and Amazon does not show on "Product Details" is that most of Barney's videos have a Spanish soundtrack. So on the menu for Languages you can change it to Spanish! I kept looking for Spanish videos as I want my child to be bilingual, and when I bought this video is was a nice surprise, when you change the language you see the SAME video dubbed in Spanish. Yes, weird the words do not match the lips, but the songs have the same rhythm! and kids already know and love the video and can easily get the connection and learn it in Spanish! I bought this and the numbers video."

"I think that this video is great. It begins with shapes and then reviews letters by spelling names and singing songs!! I like to play it in both English and Spanish. The video is a good length too. Not to short and not to long. My 1 and 1/2 loves Barney!"
