Product Description

The Olsen twins take viewers to Lincoln Center, where they have a workout with the ballerinas of the New York City Ballet, go sightseeing in the Big Apple, and bring everything to a big finish with a grand-finale performance featuring some fine young dancers. With the cultural angle, this is better than most Olsen videos. --Tom Keogh

4.0 out of 5 stars Short and Sweet for Little Dancers! Oct 1 2002
By "georgia991"
Format:VHS Tape
My four year old daughter LOVES this video. She puts on her leotard and ballet shoes and acts out the entire thing while it is on and even when it isn't. A lot of people talk about how videos are destructive "babysitters" but the imagination I see my daughter using as a result of this video makes me disagree. Also, it is "only" 30 minutes long, so if you want to curb your little one's appetite for TV, you can pop this one in and it's over before it gets to be "too much." Order it and have fun!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad for right age group Aug 1 2000
By Philip R Schatz
Format:VHS Tape
I recently rewatched this video with my now 4 year old, and realize that my prior 2 star pan (below) was unfair. The editing is a bit hyperactive, but the Olsen twins are very appealing, there is plenty of NYC atmosphere, and there are some not-bad songs and dance numbers. There are three speaking parts by real NYC Ballet dancers (playing NYC Ballet dancers). They won't win any Oscars, but they add a tone of legitimacy to this ballet party. The video is not bad as these things go, but it is too much for toddlers. Step up a year or two, and it is fine.

Here's my earlier review:
My 2 1/2 year old daughter loves both ballet and the Olsen twins, so this seemed like a natural for her. Unfortunately, the overactive editing of the sequences (cribbing, alternately, from the Monkees TV show and the movie Flashdance) make watching the video a real chore. It's a great idea for a video and the Olsens are appealing personalities -- but the editing sinks it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for aspiring ballerinas Oct 1 2002
By Avid Reader
Format:VHS Tape
My 4-year-old daughter loves this video. She just started taking ballet classes, and this video shows her little girls learning how to dance as well as adult professionals in New York--real life prima ballerinas.

It's a well-made video with catchy songs and a positive message--that getting good at anything requires lots of practice, and that even if you're not the best dancer in the world, it's still a fun and healthy thing to do.

I definitely recommend this for any little girl who enjoys ballet.
