There are quite a few Hi 5 DVD'S but Magical Treasures is the only one we have. It is 57 minuets of mini adventures including, Egyptian princess, Dirt boy, and the musical giant. I'm not sure how many different stories there are because often they run into each other but there are mermaids, giants and magical creatures. There are clues to follow that lead to a treasure map and there are pirates searching for treasure, personally I like captain Puffy Pants. (I definitely shouldn't admit that)
The song and dance moves are easy for the kids follow with turns and easy two step moves, and I should know iv been doing them too, (I really shouldn't admit that)
Songs include, 'dirt boy', 'lets pretend', 'buriedtreasure', and my favourite 'opposites attract' (Now I know I shouldn't admit that)
Special features on the DVD are subtitles, child friendly menus...

Advantages: great childhood film Disadvantages: acting is not great
...This was a film that I loved as a child and I watched it again the other day and I think that it is still one of the best films I watched as a child.
It's a film produced by Steven Spielberg an is when brothers Mikey and Brand learn that greedy developers are forcing their family to move so they and their friends decide to have one last adventure together. Where they find a treasure map in the attic, the group known as the Goonies, go in search of the buried gold of One eyed Willys treasure hoping against hope that if they find it and keep their home.
They come across traps and many other obstacles, as they find themselves in a race against time as the villains that are also after the treasure are hot on their heels, but do they find the treasure in the end?? You will have to wait and see as I do not want to give too much away...
