I am really disappointed in a lot of the reviews I see on this forum about Elena...someone complaining that Elena can "do all these things she shouldn't be able to do." Like fencing, magic, soccer. If the person who wrote the review had even watched that episode, she spent the entire episode being trained in dexterity, agility and speed by the Lt. of the Royal Guard, she was actually quite bad at fencing in the episode, even though her mother, the best fencer in the kingdom had trained her. this is a great show that I will even watch without my 2 year old. Elena is a strong young lady who has to learn to rule her kingdom. Each episode is a learning experience for Elena. She makes a lot of mistakes, but learns with each episode. This is such a great show for kids and most of the music is fantastic. I can pretty much sing every song by heart. This show teaches children how to be responsible and to be true to their hearts despite what others think.
