We also really love the Barbie movies! I worried they would be too helpless-princess-getting-saved for me, but the characters are actually very efficacious. Livy loves them all, but I think she watches “Barbie and the Magic of Pegasus” the most.

Thanks. I’m not sure that I’m ready to commit to posterity the breadth of my straight-to-DVD, doll-based movie knowledge. Hinting is one thing.

The Barbie series is pretty good all around. I’d recommend Barbie as The Princess and the Pauper. We even bought the soundtrack, which is pretty unusual. My girls also really liked Barbie: The Island Princess. If you want further recommendations for age-appropriateness and parent-retchiness, I could go further but that’ll start you off in good stead with the best of the lot. I have seen them all way too many times.
