All four of my children watched this show during their preschooler years. I have a two-year-old who watches every day and owns a couple of videos.
This show is about using your imagination. It teaches musical skills. It teaches the alphabet, numbers, memorization, and good behavioral techniques. When the show originally aired it was all imagination. Barney was a stuffed toy owned by a girl named Tina who imagined she was back at school playing with her friends and classroom toys. Now it has evolved to a treehouse in the center of a park and the focus is friendship. Thanks to everything decent this show has to offer, my kids have grown up more intelligent and they are not afraid to show off their knowledge and talents.
Bottom line - my kids are happier because of Barney being a part of their lives. That makes this show TOPS in my book!
