Anyone own this video?

I am a stay at home mom to 2 boys, 6 (tommorow!) and almost 3. I can't even tell you how many times I've seen this video. When my oldest was 2, we borrowed it from the library and he couldn't stop watching it. He'd sing and dance. So I bought it. Now my youngest is almost 3 and he's been watching it almost exclusively for the past year. We've even put it in before our vacations to get excited about! Over the years we've collected alot of the "Sing-a-long" videos, but this one is always a favorite, with Halloween following closely.

Sometimes I wonder what happened to those kids, they were pretty cheesy!

I am also a stay-at-home mom and my kids are 5 and 2. My two year old loves it! She has learned a lot of the songs and I too put it on even more before trips to get my kids excited. My five year old doesn't like Disneyland (have you ever heard of such a thing!!??) He is scared of the rides. He only likes hugging the characters. (Usually it is the other way around for most kids.)

I like the movie! I too have wondered about the kids. Disney is the best!!!

I forgot I even wrote this until today. My kids are home for the Summer and my 6 year old comes down with the Disney Singalong to Disneyworld's Beach Parks. I was getting sick of the other one-my 3 year old has been watching only that (and Wiggles!) for months. So I was happy to change out the songs and was curious how my 3 year old would like this since he was so stuck on the other one. Well we're on our second round in a row with this one, so you can see he loves it. I come to pull it up on here and clicked on this video, forgot I had written the only topic started on this BB for Disneyland Fun. So it's nice to meet you! I'm so surprised your 5 year old doesn't like Disneyland! Wow! And to be afraid of the rides (I can see some of them), but not the characters? That is the other way around! We went to Disneyland over the Holidays and the kids had fun. My younger one gets overwhelmed real easy, so he acted like a stick in the mud somtimes, or really shy at other times. It took him a while to take a picture with the characters without me there (even though his big brother was there), but he was getting good after a while. Which is funny, cause at home he acts like he and Mickey are old pros at being friends!

Sorry to go on so long-it's nice to see other kids about my kids age enjoying the tape, too. At times I feel I'm the only one who owns this thing!

Hello again! Since I wrote that last message I went with my sister to Disneyland and just took my 2 yr old. My five year old said he didn't want to go. I think the last time was just too overwhelming for him. It was a long day and we took him on Indiana Jones and Big Thunder Mountain which he had never been on before and they both scared him. He walked almost the whole day so no wonder he doesn't like it. We had fun on this last trip. It was even better for my two yr old this time. (We took her at 17 months before) She knew the songs a lot better like Its a Small World because of the video. She did go up to Mickey right away and gave him a hug. She especially loved the fireworks!! I love Disneyland.

About the video, this is actually our second one. My son broke the first and we had to get it again because they love it so much.

Mine was like a screw up

My tape came in the Zip a Dee Doo Dah case and even said it on the tape but it was this movie. I always that that this was the Zip a dee doo dah one until I did some research and found out the real movie. So i guess mine was a factory screw up or a conspiracy. A great movie, pretty much my whole childhood right here

When i was a youngster, my parents would always play this tape for me... I was addicted.

My dad was in the military until I was 10. My mom is a HUGE Disney fan and always wanted to take us but couldnet because my dad was never around. So me and my sister would always watch it and she would tell me that one day we would go. Well I got to go in 2000 and had a blast. We went again in 2005 and were in Magic Kingdom when my sister started to sing "Walking right down the middle of main street" I told her to stop and we walked down the middle and a trolley of people stoped right in front of us, got off, and the music started up! It was a true Disney moment

Anyone notice that when Yuna changed her outfit her I.Q. went down?

Hi everyone!

I'm probably one of the few with no kids who owns this DVD. I used to work for a Disney Store about 10 years ago when I first had it, and when I moved I misplaced it, needless to say I was heartbroken.

Then this past March I went to Disneyland (saw the 50th Anniversary parade) and was looking through one of the shops and found it, I grabbed it up right away and that night at my hotel I watched in my portable DVD player before I went to bed, I found I couldn't stop singing with it.

I'm hoping to go back this next year, and hopefully the Finding Nemo ride will be open.

Yes, I'm proud to say that I do own it, right when it was released. It takes me way back as I'm watching it right now and I realize how much Disneyland has changed. Still, it helps me relive Disney memories of the 90's.

LOL I remember this video from when I was a kid, so when I saw it on sale I bought it. I haven't watched it yet, but I have it on DVD and video, but I'm not sure how much the video works. I watched it a lot with my siblings when I was younger! I still remember most of it too!

I own a lovely little collection of Disney Singalong videos! This has always been one of my favorites, along with "Fun with Music" and "Heigh-Ho."

I too own quite a few Sing Along Song videos from Disney. This was probably one of my favorites, due to my huge love for coasters and theme parks today. (I'm an enthusiast as well). We still have this video lying around somewhere. I know the Tape itself is in dense condition, with that weird bottom plastic flap thing broken off, but the tape still works. Hopefully I can copy it to DVD somehow.

It's funny watching it, knowing that half the rides on their are either modified or gone, especially all the Tomorrowland attractions. No more America Sings, Peoplemover, Skyway, Rocket Jets, nor the short lived Rocket Rods (which came years after this video).

Yeah, I'm 27 years old now and I think my sister got this for her birthday when she was 3 or 4 years old. She'll be 21 in June. We all watch this over and over. It's been a few months I think, but whenever my mom has new kids in the house to baby-sit, it comes out once. I love just sitting there and watching and singing along! I definitely don't need to read along with the words anymore! I've been to Disneyland twice now and when I see the movie, I'm like cool, I was there! It's so much fun and addicting!
