Wow, The Nutcracker is cool!

December 24, 2009 By: Amy Category: Kids, Products

…is just what my four year old exclaims as she sits and watches Prima Princessa’s “The Nutcracker”.

prima princessa nutcracker Wow, The Nutcracker is cool!

She sits and watches the ballet DVD in awe of the beautiful ballerinas and then practices her ballet steps along with the students from the NYC Ballet’s School of American Ballet.

You can purchase Prima Princessa Presents The Nutcracker Wow, The Nutcracker is cool! from Amazon for around $10 or so.

A perfect holiday gift for your little princess.  :)

Now this is classic

*Congratulations to our winner, Roxann!  (#154)

Original Christmas Classics_3D

When this offer came my way, I absolutely could NOT refuse.  See, I’m a sucker for all things Christmas ever since my daughters were born.  I love it that my four year old digs these old Christmas classics and can watch them over and over and over, just like me.  Just like I have been doing since I was her age.  I love it that we have these memories to share.  So this box set is on it’s way to our house and I am anticipating the day that it arrives.

Thanksgiving is over (hopefully you had a nice one) and the Christmas season (in my opinion) is OFFICIALLY here!  That means, our family does something Christmas-related every single day until the end of December (including making a homemade wreath and some homemade tree ornaments…I’ll keep you posted on how all of that goes).

I need to spread the joy to you, so Classic Media is working with me to give one of our readers this exact box set with the following Christmas classics:

  • Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer
  • Frosty The Snowman
  • Santa Claus is Comin’ To Town!
  • The Little Drummer Boy
  • Mr. Magoo’s Christmas Carol
  • Cricket on the Hearth
  • Frosty Returns

To enter, you just need to leave a comment on this post.  Your comment can be about anything, really.  We’re not that picky but you could always just let us know which of the above titles are your favorites and maybe why.  Mine are Rudolph, Frosty and Santa Claus.  Can’t live without seeing those every single Christmas.

We’ll pick a winner the morning of December 4th, so you’ll have enough time to enjoy these classics before the holiday arrives.  Heck, we were watching them all the way into March of this year from last Christmas.  Whatever floats your boat, I guess.

Happy black Friday shopping (if you are out braving the crowds unlike me) and good luck!

Yo Gabba Gabba: New Friends

Congratulations to our winner, #71 – Liz S!

ygg newfrnds dvd 3d Yo Gabba Gabba: New Friends

Well, we’ve been sucked into the world of Yo Gabba Gabba.  My 3-1/2 year old walks around every day, singing songs from this brand new DVD.  To be honest, I thought we could get away with not having a new tv show addiction.  That’s a negative.  She has added the Yo Gabba Gabba!: New Friends Yo Gabba Gabba: New Friends DVD to her daily playlist.

I suppose the best thing about it for us (the parents) is that we love Jack Black and he guest stars in one of the episodes on the DVD.  Now, when the kiddo sees Jack Black on t.v., she says, “Hey, that’s Jack Black!  He’s our friend!”  We think that’s pretty funny.

This DVD was just released at the beginning of April and we think it’s fun and worth checking out.  Preschoolers really seem to dig this show.

Lucky for you, we’re giving away a copy of the new Yo Gabba Gabba DVD, “New Friends”.  To enter, just leave a comment on this post.  Let us know if you are regular Yo Gabba Gabba watchers.  We’ll choose a winner at random after midnight CST on Thursday, April 30th.
