James and The Giant Peach: Special Edition | Review

I recently had the opportunity to review James and the Giant Peachon blu-ray. I can't believe it's been 14 years since it was out in the theaters. I was pregnant with my son and decided to take my little sisters to see the movie. My sisters loved the movie but I wasn't too fond of it. Was it because I was pregnant and my hormones were out of whack or was it just a movie I didn't like? I don't know. Fast forward 14 years later, I decided to give the movie another try but with my kids this … [Read more...]

Disney’s Handy Manny Motorcycle Adventure

When the Disney Channel first aired Handy Manny, my kids and I were curious to see what it was all about.  I don't often speak Spanish around them which I know isn't good for them but I grew up in a household where English was the number one language.  I guess I got used to it. Handy Manny is a bi-lingual show about a Hispanic handyman and his animated, talking tools.  The show teaches young children the beginnings of Spanish and the importance of cultural diversity.  Learning Spanish while … [Read more...]

Santa Buddies: The Legend Of Santa Paws & Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Choo-Choo Express | Review

Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure | Review

Tinker Bell has always been my favorite character in Peter Pan so it’s no wonder when Tinker Bell came out with her very own movie last year, I was probably one of the first ones to go out and buy it. My daughters will also agree. They both LOVE any movie that is Disney, especially when it comes to princesses or the best fairy in town, Tinker Bell. Tinker Bell was recently named “Honorary Ambassador of Green” by United Nations Under-Secretary-General for Communications and Public … [Read more...]
