Barney's Magical Music is a Barney video game that was released in 2000. It came packaged with a playset, which is attached to the keyboard. The game can also be played with only a keyboard, if the player knows what buttons to press (as the playset presses certain buttons on the keyboard).

Musical Playset

The playset features five different instruments used to play the game. The instruments are a trumpet, a violin, a three-key piano, a bongo, and a foot drum.

Areas of the Game

Barney's One-Man Band

The player selects one of three types of music: Country, Rock N' Roll, or Latin, and selects the speed of the music: fast, medium, or slow. Then, use the instruments on the playset to play along to the song!
