Customer Reviews: Total numer of reviews: 11 Average rating: 4.5 "wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!!" i just totally loved this video. Big Bird and Barkey were great. It was a great little tale about Big Bird's trip in Japan, and if you're really into learning about the japanese culture, you'll definitely enjoy this video! There is also a great surprise ending to this story, so watch it and enjoy it!! "What you need to know for Japan" We recently returned from living in Japan for 3 1/2 years. This movie was loved by our children and it provides a great snapshot of what life is really like in Japan. Although it is oriented for youngsters, there are numerous jokes and comments for the "older" crowd. As a matter of fact, we showed this video to a group of Japanese junior high students who thought it was wonderful. Highly recommended for anyone interested in preparing children for living in Japan or for children interested in a different culture. "Just too cute!!!" Great video for kids 1-100!!! It teaches a bit about Japaneese culture and even a few Japaneese words(please is "dozo" yes is "hai" "sayonara" means goodbye....)This impressed some Japaneese exchange students I met once. I highly reccomend it "Big Bird In Japan" My younger sister and I used to watch this video all the time when we were younger. We loved the bamboo princess, the song about the moon and of course Big Bird and Barkey! This is a quality movie in both entertainment and educational aspects. To this day, I remember how to count in Japaneese! "Tori niku time" Very cute tale that includes the fable about the bamboo princess. If you have ever visited Japan and want to share the experience with kids, this is a good start.
