Barney Mother Goose Collection DVD & Activity Book & Music CD!

Everone's favorite purple T-rex Barney and all his friends are brining beloved nursery rhymes to life in the new Barney: Mother Goose Collection on DVD and On Demand March 15, 2011 from Lionsgate and HIT Entertainment. Perfect for Easter baskets, this super-dee-duper rhyming adventure provides a full length DVD movie fully loaded with five special features, a bonus music CD and lots of learning fun with the accompanying 64 page activity book.  The movie features over 35 classic rhymes such as Humpty Dumpty, Little Miss Muffet, London Bridge, There Was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe and more!

I have trusted Barney for years to be a good role model for my kids.  His programs have always modeled sharing, caring and using our imagination which are traits that children need to be reminded of at times. His movies also encourage movement through dancing which is a great way to encourage children from a young age to get up off the couch and move.  It's no surprise that Barney & Friends is one of the top rated preschool shows today, airing on PBS KIDS and Sprout. Barney is geared toward children ages 1-5 years sold.

DVD Bonus features include Behind the Scenes with Cast and Crew, "What Can It Be" read along, 15 sing alongs, 17 Mother Goose rhyme alongs and Mother Goose Live on Stage.  There is a total of 53 minutes feature running time. I love that this set includes a DVD, CD and activity book.  This would be a great Easter basket gift or just a fun program to incorporate into a homeschool unit on rhyming.
