My Daughter Loves it!
by .. Brian S. Hamilton (Portland, OR USA)
I bought this as a 5th birthday present for my daughter, and she loves it! She watches it quite often.
Bought as a present for my niece
by .. Carrie Van Derveer (North Carolina, USA)
I bought this DVD for my niece who is obsessed with the Disney Princesses right now. We have family in NJ and the drive can be very trying so now she can watch these on the way.
My 3 year old loves this!
by .. Wendy OShea ()
I Definitely agree it could have been done much better and may be disappointing to older children, but to my three year old daughter, this is gold! It never fails to make her smile and she dances along with the song at the end. She enjoys it and that's all that matters to me. It was money well spent.
Expected more effort from Disney
by .. Savanah M. Gray (Colorado, USA)
I truly expected a better effort from Disney. I am a huge Disney fan myself, my children love Disney films so we want to see that "magic" that makes their products famous.
The DVD has three stories. The first is more of an old Aladdin series tale than it is a princess tale. The story barely fits into the "tales of friendship" theme and quite frankly was a bit scary for little girls which is who Disney is trying to please anyway. Little spooky looking sprites that cause mischief and mayhem, fighting, chaos, and yelling that borders on swearing. The whole atmosphere is ridiculous and poorly animated to boot. I don't like the old Disney shows from the 90's but I also don't have anything against them. I just wish Disney had remembered that these DVD's appeal to toddlers and little girls, NOT 13 year old's!!!!!!
All of the above applies to the third tale of Ariel. Spooky, inappropriate and another story that didn't fit well into the aforementioned theme. I was also upset to find a story in which a maniacal Ursula uses Ariels' treasures to cause panic and mayhem and then assume the role of Queen in return for ending the spell. ONCE AGAIN....way too age inappropriate.
The reason for the three stars is because my daughter (2) and my 4 year old son beg me to play the Snow White portion of the DVD! Many reviewers were disappointed to find that the Snow White tale wasn't a newly animated story, I was too, at first. In all honesty the clips, and the story book animation are all very charming and the DVD is interactive but also plays by itself if you leave it. My daughter has just enough time to stand up and run to the screen to point to the correct answer before the DVD continues on with the story. I would actually buy a DVD that had 3-4 storybook tales with minimal animation and sound storytelling narration and presentation. This portion was created directly for little girls which makes the other two upsetting and poor quality stories even more of a mystery. Rent this DVD for your little girl and play the Snow White story, I assure you she'll love it. I played this and the best clips of other Disney films for the girls at my son's birthday party two weeks ago and the whole party ended up sitting down and requesting us to "do again, do again!"
If you are looking for a great princess DVD purchase for your little princess I highly recommend the sing along DVD's within this princess series. Those won't fail your expectations and will keep your children entertained and happy.
Save Your Money
by .. Deborah Conner (Plano, TX USA)
I do not recommend the purchase of this dvd. We anxiously awaited its release as it was touted as having a new Snow White cartoon. Instead of creating a brand new cartoon, Disney used excerpts from the Snow White movie and rearranged them along with narration to create a new story. At times, the characters are pictured talking on screen in still shots with no mouth movements. There are some interactive features in the Snow White story which ask the child to make selections with the remote. My daughter is 4 1/2 and doesn't use the remote. I helped her make the choices, but she found it to be frustrating. The Jasmine cartoon is one that Disney still shows in The Aladdin cartoon series reruns. The Little Mermaid cartoon is also from the Little Mermaid cartoon series that still runs on Disney. My daughter had seen the Aladdin and Little Mermaid cartoons on television previously. This was a disappointing waste of money.
