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 owned this video (still have it,actually). Out of all the "Sing Along Songs"
videos, this one was my absolute favorite. I have the original 1990 (even though I got it in 1992) release in the purple sleeve.
I used to watch it once a week when I was 6 years old (now 22). I do sometimes watch it the night before my parents and I go to Disney World, as a tool to get psyched up. I haven't watched it in about 7 years (2001) Last time I watched it,the tracking was a little fuzzy (typical of age), but it still played good.

I've been watching this movie constantly since I was extremely small, and I'm now 16. I've never been to Disneyland, but my family goes to Disney World at least every other year. I've probably been about ten times in my life, starting when I was a baby (my dad would go on business conferences in Florida, so my mom and I would tag along and we'd all go to Disney). I now have two younger sisters, and we always watch this movie to get excited for our trip. We can sing along to every song--without the provided lyrics, I might add! :) We are going to Disney this Spring Break (over my 17th birthday!!!) and I can't wait to watch this movie.

I used to have this on video,and other sing a long songs videos by Disney,but unfortunately,i don't have them now.I might buy them again though.If i ever have kids,i'd like to show them all the things i watched when i was a kid,lol !.I think they would enjoy them,as some of them are timeless !.

Like others have said,i'd like to know what happened to the kids in this too.

I happened to get the VHS copy of Disneyland Fun from Goodwill and each time I watch it I wish to go on a vacation to Disneyland and this was probably why this video was made in the Disney Sing Along Songs series when it first came out in 1990. Disneyland Fun has some of the best elements of Disneyland starting with the iconic park opening ceremony that occurs each morning that appears during the Whistle While You Work song. And Walking Down The Middle Of Main Street USA is such a wonderful song and really sets the mood for fun and seeing some of the characters in the song is priceless. I wasn't impressed with the version of Following The Leader from Peter Pan and it seemed to be about The Jungle Cruise and Adventureland and they should've had Peter Pan appear for this song. But the ending song When You Wish Upon A Star is great with the famous fireworks show that signals the closing of Disneyland for the night. Next to Fun With Music this is my second favorite in the Disney Sing Along Songs series and I often wonder why Disney doesn't release the whole series on DVD and they should make a new updated version of Disneyland Fun with all new songs and feature the newest shows and rides that Disneyland has today

I have this on DVD. I got it at Barnes and Noble for $14.99. I got it over a year ago.
