The Swan Princess: Kingdom of Music

We got our Puffin and Movie from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment All opinions are own own.

That’s right all, it’s coming and your kids are going to go nuts. DVD and Digital today August 6 from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.  To join in on the fun this year me and Puffin went on some great adventures together.  Just like he did with the Swan Princess.  Make sure to follow along on Instagram to see all our adventures 🙂

 

We start off meeting great new Royals Princess Mei Li and her brother Prince Li.  Prince Li is chosen to sing at a competition but Mei Li needs to get there to find the help she needs.  Mei Li is trying to save her loves life.  He has been cursed to be a dragon except for a very short time every  day when they get to talk.  She thinks the Swan princess can help.  When Odette and Derek try to help her save her true love is when the true adventure starts.

Odette and Derek try their hardest to remember how they broke the spell to help Princess Mei Li. When it does not work they have to find new ways to break the spell.  While all this is going on Princess Alise’s birthday is coming up and the singers are trying to win a spot to sing at her coming of age party.  She is hoping Prince Li does not win and being her fun, crazy and not always princess like self is getting in trouble. Everything might change due to a harp and an apology. How will Lucas take this new news?

Some times the biggest sacrifices come from the most unexpected people.

 

The music in this movie was amazing. Every song was beautiful and perfect.

The only thing I would change with this move is, I really think it needed more Puffin. The camera just loves him.

Nothing better after a long day out then a nice hotel bed

Disney Descendants 3 DVD Review Out on Disney DVD August 6th

We got this movie free in exchange for an honest review

I would like to say that I popped Disney Descendants 3 into the DVD player right away, but I have to be honest.  It took me a few days to watch it.  Not because I was not super excited, but because I was a little sad.  I want to start this review off by saying.  Cameron Boyce you will truly be missed. Camron was not only a great actor he was a good man.  He was truly one we were watching to see all the good he will do in his life. He will not only be missed by his family and friends, he will also be missed by the millions of fans. He has touched our lives and will never be forgotten.

This movie starts off with a bang.  Or should I say a musical number that you will love.  They jump right into the lotto of who will be going to school with them this year.  Then it happens.  Yes it happens and no I’m not telling you what happens but we are all excited for this new twist on our favorite Disney kids lives.  We also have a new set of twins I am very excited to see how they turn out.

Hades is back and looking for revenge. As he breaks through the barrier Mal tries to stop him but something goes terrible wrong. Why is Hades doing this and why does he care so much? As they are trying to help her more is going wrong and they will all have to work together to get things back on track before its too late.

Questions We Need Answered

With two new threats we are in suspense the whole time.  One expected and another one not expected.  As the kids come together to defeat the threats will they be separated in their loyalty or will they stick together again to defeat the evil? Will they close the gate forever?  Who will become the new Queen?  What will those twins get into to? DESCENDANTS 3  will keep you on your toes the whole show. 

Don’r forget to check out all the awesome back to school gear from the Disney store and amazon  you are going to love this year .


This highly anticipated Disney Channel Original Movie continues the contemporary saga of good versus evil as the teenage daughters and sons of Disney’s most infamous villains – – Mal, Evie, Carlos and Jay (also known as the villain kids or VKs) — return to the Isle of the Lost to recruit a new batch of villainous offspring to join them at Auradon Prep. The all-star cast returns in the exciting third installment of the Descendants Series

Peanuts 70th Anniversary Holiday Collection Limited Edition Featured Specials:

It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown – This Emmy® Award-nominated special, finds the Peanuts gang outfitted in costumes, ready for trick or treating and crashing Violet’s Halloween party. Charlie Brown is in a ghost costume (with more eyeholes cut out than needed), Lucy dressed as a witch and Snoopy in a World War I flying ace costume. Linus decides to steadfastly hold vigil in the pumpkin patch as he awaits the Great Pumpkin.

It’s Magic, Charlie Brown – This special finds Snoopy putting on a show after he checks out a book on magic tricks from the library. With Marcie and Sally as his assistants, he performs many tricks (some that work and some that don’t) before an audience. The grand finale features the biggest trick of all, making Charlie Brown disappear.  To everyone’s amazement, Snoopy makes him invisible but doesn’t know how to bring Charlie Brown back. Will Snoopy find a way to reverse the trick?

Charlie Brown’s All-Stars – Nominated for two Prime Time Emmys®, in this delightful special, Charlie Brown is faced with a difficult moral dilemma; should he accept brand new uniforms and give the rest of the gang a chance to be part of an official little league baseball team even if it means that due to policy, Snoopy, Lucy, Patty, Violet and Frieda must be kicked off?

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving – In this Emmy® Award-winning special, Peppermint Patty invites herself to Charlie Brown’s house for Thanksgiving dinner. Marcie and Franklin are soon added as dinner guests. Charlie Brown admits that his culinary skills are limited to “cold cereal and maybe toast.”  Snoopy and Woodstock transform the ping-pong table in the backyard into a dinner table.   As the guests arrive, they are each served two slices of buttered toast, some pretzel sticks, popcorn and jelly beans. Peppermint Patty is outraged at the meal and berates Charlie Brown until embarrassed and dejected, he leaves the table and goes back into the house.

The Mayflower Voyagers – In this special from the This is America, Charlie Brown series, the Peanuts kids become pilgrims sailing to the New World aboard the Mayflower and endure the first hard winter on Plymouth Plantation.

Play It Again, Charlie Brown – Nominated for an Emmy Award ®, this special focuses on Lucy’s undying and unreciprocated love for the piano playing child prodigy, Schroeder. In an effort to win Schroeder’s affection, Lucy, under Peppermint Patty’s advice, invites him to perform in a concert at an upcoming PTA meeting.  Schroeder accepts and immediately begins rehearsing.  Lucy, delighted with Schroeder’s acceptance, thanks Peppermint Patty.  Peppermint Patty however, mentions she forgot to tell Lucy that only rock music will be featured in the program and that Schroeder won’t be able to play Beethoven.  Lucy is left in anguish, knowing Schroeder will refuse to perform anything other than classical music and tries to find a way to break the news without his dropping out of the program.

A Charlie Brown Christmas – In this Emmy® and Peabody Award winning classic, Charlie Brown is upset by how commercial the Christmas holiday has become. To coax him out of his holiday blues, Lucy suggests he direct the school’s Christmas pageant and decorate a glorious tree.  Charlie Brown concedes. The tree he finds however, is puny, prompting everyone to ridicule him.

It’s Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown – This is the second Christmas-themed Peanuts special since A Charlie Brown Christmas.  Holiday preparations include Charlie Brown selling wreaths door-to-door to make extra money, Peppermint Patty sweating out an important book report and the entire crew appearing in a Christmas pageant.

 

* It’s Flashbeagle, Charlie Brown – Originally broadcast in 1984, this special is comprised of several clever parodies inspired by popular early ‘80s dance trends ranging from disco to break dancing as well as a series of top 40 hit songs from the era.  It’sFlashbeagle, Charlie Brown earned an Emmy® Award nomination for Outstanding Animated Program.

Our kids these days have so many options when going back to school finding the right products can be hard, we have a few here that you are going to love

U.S.A Titanium Pencils

Its funny the first thing my hubby said when he saw them was wow they even come sharpened these days.  I guess our littles are a little more spoiled then we were I remember rushing the first day of class because I had pencils but did not sharpen any of them lol.

Pencils are a back to school basic and the USA Gold pencil line is made right here in America! They are manufactured in a factory that has operated in Lewisburg, Tennessee for 57 years.

Scribble Stuff Gel Pens

These gel pens come with 8 glitter, 8 neon, and 8 metallic.  I can’t help but think of the fun my sister and her friends would have had with these.  I think they drew on everything when they were younger.  Of course, they never had anything as awesome as these.  The drew very smooth and had great grips on the pens so your hands wont cramp as easily.

The Scribble Stuff line is popular from the variety of gel pen inks: metallic, neon and glitter colors are perfect for any creative activity.  The super-stylish, on trend palettes come in a variety of pack sizes and price points that encourage self-expression and doodling through drawing and coloring.
