Great movie... They do need to have other races in the barbie movies, like they do in A Christmas Carol. But it still has a great message Not sure how this could encourage a girl to go around kissing boys...sounds more like a parenting problem than a movie problem

What Parents Need to Know
About Barbie Fairytopia: Magic of the Rainbow
Parents need to know that there is an evil fairy who threatens to destroy idyllic Fairytopia. The heroine, Elina, is ostracized by other apprentices at fairy school, but meets two friends who are kind to her. When one of the mean fairy students needs help, Elina selflessly goes to her rescue, and all the apprentices learn to work together to thwart the threat to their kingdom. Girls under 8 will get the most out of the simple story on this DVD, and because it's Barbie, they will probably be begging for all the merchandise to go with it.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about Elina's arrival at the Crystal Palace. How did she cope when the other apprentices weren't nice to her? Have you ever been nervous to go to a new school or classroom? How did you handle it? The fairy apprentices, even the ones who don't like one another, have to work as a team to save the day. Why is it a good idea to work as a team? What would have happened if they didn't help one another?

lack of diversity
I have several of the barbie movies and my daughter is in love with them. I enjoy watching them with her. However, I've noticed the lack of diversity in every single one that I have watched. They are all white people. I am white myself but my children are multiracial and I know lots of other children of different races. I think barbie needs to start coming out with movies that depict different cultures and races. Why are they all the White race. I love the movies but I think that barbie needs to think about a little more diversity when it comes to culture and race.

Great lessons on how to deal with mean friends
My 3 year old loved this movie and just had to watch it every day for a week. I liked that the main character was quick to help a person who was never even a little bit nice to her. The puffballs, however, were very annoying, and my daughter is still randomly imitating them a month later!

My 4 yr old girl started kissing boys after watching this!
My 4 yr old daughter had this initially sweet lovey look in her eyes the first few times she watched this (before I watched it). Then she started kissing boys at school, and when I watched it I realized why! There are love undertones throughout and I didn't realize the effect it might have. I would still buy it again, but maybe watch it with her and watch it only occasionally.
