This colossal adventure features preschoolers’ favorite loveable, huggable T-rex, Barney, on a trip to Spain, Kenya and China where he meets new friends and learns about various cultures.

Trusted by moms and adored by children, Barney displays sharing, caring, imagining, dancing and learning on television, online and through live events, home entertainment, toys and publishing. The Emmy® award-winning series, Barney & Friends™ is one of the top-rated preschool shows today, airing on PBS KIDS® and Sprout®.

Together they encounter princesses and kings, musicians and magicians, puppeteers and artists across Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas. As the trio experiences new cultures and languages from around the world, Barney demonstrates the importance of the most universal language of all: friendship.



A&W are growing out of the typical Barney episodes but they loved this movie.  It was interesting for them to see other cultures and hear the different languages and music.  It was a big hit with them.  It was also a hit with Baby R who thinks Barney is just terrific.  Barney:  Big World Adventure is educational and fun for pre-schoolers.  I really like how Barney helps children celebrate differences.  Thumbs up, Barney!  Pick up your copy today on Amazon.
