I am BEYOND impressed with the Barbie and the Diamond Castle DVD ! As a mother of a 3 year old, I’d call myself new to the "Barbie" DVD franchise – so I was not sure what to expect. This story about two best friends – with fantastic music – had a beautiful message about friendship and I found it totally entertaining for Moms and truly exciting and captivating for my Mackenzie. Usually with new movies, I try to watch them with Mackenzie so I can answer her questions and we can discuss the story. Near the end of the movie when it was not certain the friends would "escape", Kenzie was enthralled and a bit nervous about the outcome, but I re-assured her that it would all work out and that the drama is what made the movie so exciting. At 3 years old, she appreciated my vote for the "happy ending"! She’s been talking about this movie non-stop for the past 5 days and I know we’ll be watching it again and again – and I suspect she’ll be asking Santa for some of these new "Barbie" Diamond Castle toys. I’ve got my eye on a Barbie learning laptop I saw in the store the other day that I’m sure she’ll love! Seriously, I was just thrilled with the plot of this movie, the message about friendship, and seeing a "fresh" new princess tale. Classy Mommy Approved! For more information, click here. Price: $11
