Ballet Class for Kids: A Fantasy Garden I & II

This is a wonderful DVD for kids who love to dance even if they are not into ballet. It is especially appealing because of the different use of nature - that is flowers, trees, animals. This makes it appealing and fun. The instructer speaks clearly and is easy to follow. My grand daughter started watching Garden 1 before she was 3 and trying to follow it before her arms could even reach over her head. It has been fun watching her improve in the motions and following the directions. It is a fun one to do with your child. Makes for good exercise.

I had the first one on VHS when my daughters were little. My daughters went on to take "real" ballet when they were school-aged and A Fantasy Garden really had prepped them for their first day! Finding it all these years later, plus a second included class, on DVD was great. My preschool granddaughter and toddler grandsons love it- and think it is so great that their mommies know the songs and moves, too!

The video quality is not great, but I like the DVD. I had this same video on VHS as a child and loved it, so I bought it for my own daughter. Nostalgia may play into my positive review, but I think this does a nice job of teaching basic ballet concepts. (Disclaimer: I'm not a dancer.)

i had many problems to see this dvd cause it'a region 1 dvd and that means that you can see it only in usa / canada (i live in italy). but the film is very good, my daughter loves it

Too slow moving for her, she's 4 1/2 and she said it was stupid.

My 5 year old lives this DVD! She rented it from the library and did it every day for 2 months. After my maximum renewals I had to buy it! She still loves it and does it all the time.

i bought this for my granddaughter and she loves it!

We have a wonderful ballet video called Petit Feet that we love so much I was looking for more, so we tried this one, Ballet class for kids, and another called Baby ballet. Unbelievably bad. Horrible, 1980's home recorded quality, fuzzy, dark, hard to hear teacher, boring monotone, really bad singing man. This was downright creepy, my daughter screamed to turn it off. Sent it right back. Get Petit Feet instead.

It's hard to find ballet dvds for small kids and this one from Rosemary Borros is a great one to share with little ones who love ballet. Another good dvd for ballet interested kids is Liz Vacco's Petite Feet dvd. Both of these dvds are great to engage kids and keep them moving on a rainy day. Definitely recommended!

It’s a nice DVD but the voice over is a little loud so you can’t hear the lessons as well.

My daughter loved it...fast delivery
