Barney, BJ, and Baby Bop invite young viewers to accompany them as they visit the Fort Worth Zoo in this 50-minute, never-televised Barney show. Unlike the typical televised episode, this installment is shot completely on location. Absent is the core group of children who interact with Barney--instead, Barney focuses on BJ, Baby Bop, and his young viewers. BJ attempts to chronicle their journey through the zoo with his camera, Baby Bop embarks on a quest to introduce her stuffed elephant Nellie to a real elephant, and Scooter McNutty tries desperately to locate the squirrel exhibit. Barney provides key information about animals like Mandle monkeys, zebras, and flamingos while posing many questions and challenges that invite viewer interaction. Also included is footage of real children discussing and imitating a variety of animals. Eleven fun songs accompany Barney's expedition including "What Will We See at the Zoo," "Rock Like a Monkey," and "Everybody Needs a Nap." The Fort Worth Zoo proves to be a wonderful setting for this innovative Barney episode and the animal photography is close-up and excellent. (Ages 2 to 6) --Tami Horiuchi

Synopsis
This video features television star Barney, the purple dinosaur loved by children everywhere. In this episode, Barney and his friends go to the zoo. The program is filmed live on location, an unprecedented event in the annals of Barney productions. All the usual zoo animals are there, from lions to elephants, flamingos to monkeys. Barney has some songs for the children at home to join in on, as they enjoy the sights and sounds of the zoo. ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, All Movie Guide

Customer Reviews

Doesn't capture attention like other Barney videos
My 17-month old's 1st Barney DVD was Barney's Outdoor Fun and he loves watching and dancing with the kids. When the Let's Go to the Zoo DVD is on, he walks away from the TV. The kids aren't in this DVD and it's just not as much fun for me (I mean, him).

This video turned my 2 year old into a Barney fan!
If you've got a little one who loves animals, the zoo, or Barney, this video is for you. My toddler never cared for Barney, but she loves animals so I thought I'd give this video a shot. She absolutely adores it! The songs are catchy and fun and it's longer than a normal 30 minute video. It features Baby Bop, B.J., and Barney. It's definitely one of the best zoo animal videos out there.

I highly recommend this video for any child who loves animals.

A Good Introduction to the Zoo and Animal Friends
My 2- and 4-year-old girls love this show!! Barney, BJ, Baby Bop, and a stowaway, Scooter, take a trip to the fabulous Fort Worth Zoo. As they sing and dance their way around the zoo, they see many different animals and learn a little bit about each one. Interspersed throughout the video are short animal spotlights by BJ. Also, as the gang visits each exhibit, they ask viewers things like, "Can you hop like a kangaroo?" "Can you roar like a lion?" and it shows children doing the things Barney asks them to do. Songs such as "What'll We See At the Zoo?", "Jungle Adventure," "Elephant," "Everybody Needs A Nap," and a song about snacking on fruits and vegetables are included. This video is interactive and fun, and the short facts given about the animals are very easy to understand (did you know a koala has two thumbs on each hand for climbing?!). It doesn't go into great detail about each animal, but it is a great introduction to help the child want to learn more. I also like seeing all the families spending a fun day at the zoo together. To top it off, the filming and graphics are top-notch! I highly recommend this video for all zoo-lovers and zoo-lovers-to-be!
