The Cat in the Hat: Show & Tell Sure is Swell! Review

Cat in the Hat Review

This month our review for NCircle Entertainment is for The Cat in the Hat: Show & Tell Sure is Swell!  Aaron and I watched this new release based on the popular show that airs on PBS every morning.  

This dvd had 2 segments that taught us all about the 4 seasons of the year.  We learned about the weather, foliage and environmental changes for each season including what animals might go through in each season!

In 2 more segments we learn about the eyes/vision and hair/fur of different animals.  How different animals see, how their eye shapes are different and how their hair/fur protects them.  Each animal is individual and it taught us how the differences are beneficial to each animal.

And the final segment was, which was Aaron's favorite, taught us again about both the differences and similarities in different animals by showing us baby animals and how they might grow up to be very different than their infant stages (for example: tadpoles & frogs).  Aaron loved learning about the platypus!  

The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That! is a great series for kids to learn all sorts of things and in case you didn't know -- it has a voice of Martin Short as the Cat -- teaching children through adventure and rhyme!  This dvd gets another 2 thumbs up from Aaron.  Thanks NCircle!

The Cat in the Hat: Show & Tell Sure is Swell! is available at NCircleEntertainment.com, Toys "R" Us and at Target with a SRP of $10.99!  (Bonus!  You can watch it in Espanol too!)

 

Dino Dan: Dino Party - Our Review

Dino Dan!  Dino Party Review

This month our NCircle iNsider review is of Dino Dan!  Dino Dan is a television show that comes out of Canada (eh?).  Aaron loves Dino Dan and can name pretty much any dinosaur that comes his way.  Trust me, he knows more about dinos than you do.  Unless you're a paleontologist, that is.

In this dvd you'll find five dino-riffic episodes of Dino Dan.  Dan is a young boy who wants to be a paleontologist when he grows up.  In each episode he comes across a dino mystery in which he uses the scientific method to find clues and solve his dino dilemmas, all while learning about dinosaurs along the way.  Dan is the only one that can see these dinosaurs but he usually has friends and family helping him along.

If your child is really into animals and/or dinosaurs they will really enjoy this new Dino Dan dvd.  Aaron loved all of the episodes (his favorite was the Dino Party episode) and watched the dvd 2 days in row.  He even loves the extras because you learn real facts from a paleontologist!   

You can pick up Dino Dan: Dino Party at NCircleEntertainment.com or at a retailer near you, including Toys "R" Us and Target on 6/11/13.  The dvd retails for $12.99.
