Celebrate the holidays with some of everyones favorites!

With the holidays right around the corner, a great way to gear up and get everyone in the spirit is snuggling up with some hot chocolate, popcorn and a great holiday movie or two!

In our house, Mickey Mouse and Winne the Pooh are two big favorites, not only with the kids, but with the hub and I! Last week, TWO awesome holiday DVDs became available, The Disney Animation Collection Volume 7: Mickey's Christmas Carol, as well as Winnie the Pooh: Seasons of Giving 10th Anniversary Edition.

Of course, Mickey's Christmas Carol has always been one of my favorites and now the DVD is available with three bonus shorts! Pluto's Christmas Tree, The Small One and Santa's Workshop. The classic story of "A Christmas Carol" including Mickey, Donald Duck and more is far too cute for words and is a great "gear up for the holidays" DVD to share with the family!

But we can't forget ol' Pooh Bear and the rest of the Hundred Acre Woods friends while they search for winter in Seasons of Giving. Including two new to DVD epidsodes, The Magic Earmuffs and The Wishing Bear, but our favorite part is the five songs included and the adorable Christmas stocking that accompanies the set!

You can pick up Disney Animation Collection 7: Mickey's Christmas Carol and Winnie the Pooh: Seasons of Giving at Amazon.com

Little Einsteins: Fire Truck Rocket's Blastoff!!

With Boug being gone at school all day, Lil' Buddy has been a bit on the lonely side. I've been paying extra attention and doing special things with him, but its not the same- he just adores his sister and there's no way that I come close to the fun that they have together.

As a special treat, I put in Little Einsteins: Fire Truck Rocket's Blastoff and it caught Bud's attention quick! Its filled with lots of information about music and things that you can do along with the Little Einsteins. Even I found the songs in Fire Truck Rocket's Blastoff quite catchy and had fun doing all the motions along with Lil' Buddy!

Even when Boug came home from school, she loved watching Fire Truck Rocket's Blastoff, with its four different episodes of Little Einsteins. Episodes are Fire Truck Rocket, Melody the Music Pet, Carmine's Big Race as well as Mr. Penquin's Ice Cream Adventure. Her favorite was Melody the Music Pet, as she's decided her favorite part of school is music class!

In our house, we love that Disney releases these great shows on DVD since our rinky dink little cable company doesn't even offer the Disney channel!

You can pick up a copy of Little Einsteins: Fire Truck Rocket's Blastoff at Amazon.com.
