Great gift!May 06, 2009
By C Clark
I bought the Music Box for my friends daughter who is 4 years old, and almost every time I visit at their house the little girl wants to dance to the DVD! I am impressed how she is learning all the steps and the names as well, and being a dance teacher myself I find The Music Box to be a very good introduction to dance for kids! The quality of the dance performances are great, and the dance along choreography is perfect for that age group.
I highly recommend this DVD!

Children's favorite, and rightfully so!!!Mar 03, 2009

I'm not someone to plop my children in front of the TV, but if there is one video I don't mind them watching over and over, it's the Music Box.
The story is captivating, the soundtrack is original and varied and the characters engage the children and encourage them to get up and dance, which my children and their friends never fail to do!
Also, we have given the Music Box as a present many times and it's an all-time favorite for kids of both genders.
GREAT JOB!!!!

Best dance DVD ever!Apr 19, 2010
By Happy Mother

I bought this video from my daughter's new ballet teacher, who produced this video. I thought it would be just a poorly done dance video for little kids,...Man, was wrong! This is a fantastic DVD. It introduces dance in a way that I never thought possible. Very well done. My kids (3 and 4 1/2) both LOVE IT. My daughter loves it for the pretty ballerinas and the storyline. My son loves the other styles of dance and figuring out the clues. This video is a major winner!!!

 the best 20 dollars u will spend--I have purchased 4 and countingJul 08, 2010
By Paul from Venice Beach
I have an adorable little 3 year old girl who is craZy about this DVD.
What sets it apart is the interactive dance sequences whereby each character teaches the moves.
Candidly, we have never watched the film because the kids go crazy for the Dance Sequences which are like in home dance lessons.
The kids LOVE the characters who speak directly to them and instruct them on how to act like a ballerina, a bear, a bird, etc
When we have play dates or guest from out of town--slip this in and you have 4 kids in front of the television learning the dance moves.
Even the older snobby kids get involved. It is not loud or obnoxious but intimate which makes it great.
The kids get the sense they are being spoken to directly by the characters.
The children in the production set the tone and they take the queue's from them
I never review anything but this is the best kept kids secret around.
I only wish they would make a sequel or other materials.

Fantastic for Toddlers and Children!Jul 07, 2010
By Melody Melvin

I bought this for my 3 toddlers 18 month old twin boys and 2½ year old daughter. They had no dancing experience, they just showed interest in dancing along with television shows or whenever there was music on. I wanted to get them a video that would show them steps as they got older, but would also just let them dance along to the music and watch a movie for fun.
This video was perfect. It has excellent characters, a wonderful story, and can be watched for play, or for beginning dance instruction from professional dancers. I watched the behind the scenes extras and, talk about an experienced cast and crew!
This is really a well done production. They put together a fun video that encompasses a variety of needs. The kids love it. All three dance through out the whole thing as often as they can convince me to play it. (They would watch it back to back all day, every day...) (o:
