My Review:
Peg + Cat: A Totally Awesome Halloween DVD is such a fun way to get kids excited about Halloween! Peg + Cat is a favorite in my house so my girls were thrilled to watch this DVD. We Popped it in the minivan DVD player on the way to our church's trunk or treat and boy were they pumped up about Halloween by the time we got there. The fun Halloween adventures kept my kids attention the whole way there and I didn't here an "Are we there yet?" one time. As a homeschooling mom of 4 I love that Peg + Cat: A Totally Awesome Halloween DVD teaches innovative and universal lessons about sharing, as well as basic math concepts such as sorting, estimating and identifying shapes. So, not only is Peg + Cat: A Totally Awesome Halloween DVD extremely fun and entertaining but it's also educational!

The WordFriends get their share of scares the night before Halloween when Pig walks in his sleep and everyone thinks he's a ghost! When the sun rises, it's finally Halloween--Sheep's favorite day of the year! Sheep likes nothing more than to dress up, so she always goes out of her way to make herself a special costume. When Sheep loses her magician's top hat while practicing her magic act, the hat travels all around WordWorld, visiting Pig, Bear, and Duck, breaking into its letters each time it crashes to a halt. And whenever our heroes put it back together, the hat takes a fresh, new form. Clearly, this hat is special! Could it even be...magical?

My Review:
Dinosaur Train: Buddy's Halloween Adventure DVD is an awesome Halloween adventure! Dinosaur Train is a favorite in my house so my kids were thrilled to watch this. My kids are also getting into some spooky things this Halloween which is why I love Dinosaur Train: Buddy's Halloween Adventure DVD! It's the perfect amount of spookiness to entertain my kiddos but not spooky enough to cause them to be up all night with nightmares. The episodes are fairly short which my kids love because they feel like they get to watch more TV since they can watch the entire DVD in one sitting. If you're looking for the perfect amount of Halloween spookiness for the little ones then look no further than Dinosaur Train: Buddy's Halloween Adventure DVD!
