Beauty and the Beast 3D
Opens January 13th
 For a Limited Engagement
I can’t even begin to imagine my life without Disney as a part of it,
 so when I was invited to the NYC screening of Beauty and the Beast 3D, I was thrilled.
Of course I was wondering if I could keep my composure during the movie without flashing back to seeing the original movie with my now 20 year old son sitting just a few seats away from me.
It’s funny how fast time goes by and yet how the Disney movies still capture the exact same magic.
As for Beauty and the Beast, it was even better in 3d. Of course by this point in my life I know every word and song. It was wonderful to view the movie in 3d. The opening scene was spectacular, along with the wolf fight and of course the enchanting Beauty and the Beast dance scene.
We did have the Beast along with us for the ride.
 He suited up in 3D glasses to watch the movie and loved it! We had to agree with the Beast. The digitally remastered movie presented in Digital 3D was a force to be reckoned with.
I’m sure we all know the story. The spoiled prince shuns away the old beggar woman in need of shelter only to find out she is a beautiful princess who casts a spell on the prince and turns him into a horrible beast unless he can find true love by the time the last petal of the enchanted rose falls.
Everyone in the castle is transformed into delightful and lovable characters. Along comes Belle(voice of Paige O’Hara) to show the Beast(voice of Robby Benson) what true love can be  and the rest it history, Disney history!
I could watch this movie over and over. Now I will watch it with a new love.
It was a dream come true to be able to watch Beauty and the Beast 3d with not only my oldest child, but also my two other children that never had the chance to see Beauty and Beast on the big screen.
We have Beauty and Beast on VHS, we have in on DVD, and now we will have in 3D.

Review: Kidlandia Kreechurs

by Leave a Comment

Kidlandia Kreechurs 
Available at FAO Schwarz NYC
and online FAO.com
As if Kidlandia.com is not already the greatest site around for children to visit, create and rule their own kingdom, things just got even better! 
This little guy above, Caterplump, is one of five plush huggable toys to go along with Kidlandia.com. My daughter could not get her hands on this little Kreechur fast enough. She claimed it as hers immediately and told me it was part of her online kingdom that came to visit! How could I disagree. She took Caterplump right to the laptop and showed it what it was like to be on this side of the action. 
The toy is simply adorable and obviously very popular with any child that has experienced Kidlandia.com. You can check out my review on Kidlandia by clicking here!
Caterplump, along with the other plush, come with a secret online code to Kidlandia.com. Caterplump came with a code for 5,000 kaploons! Kreechurs are limited editions and only available online at FAO.com or at the NYC location of FAO Schwarz.
They are very adorable and perfect for ages 3 and up!
Your child will love this. Mine did!

Reveiw: Disney On Ice Mickey and Minnie’s Magical Journey Now-Jan. 22nd NJ

by 2 Comments

Review: Disney On Ice 
Mickey and Minnie’s Magical Journey 
Now-Jan. 16th Prudential Center
Jan. 19-22nd IZOD Center
There is nothing in the world to me like spending the night out with our entire family. Thanks to Disney On Ice we had a wonderful time recently at Prudential Center -Newark, NJ. 
No matter how old you are, you can always enjoy a night out at Disney On Ice.
We have seen many shows in the past, and most recently, Dare To Dream, but I must say that Mickey and Minnie’s Magical Journey is coming in at the top for me. There is something for everyone.
Mickey and Minnie’s Magical Journey takes you through four magical Disney stories. Act One begins with The Lion King. A perfect beginning in my book! It really energized the audience as they clapped along to “Oh, I Just Can’t Wait To Be King”! Some of the little ones, including my daughter could not help but get up and dance right there next to her seat!
Next up was The Little Mermaid! Yeah! Well, it is one of my favorite Disney movies. 
Ariel was irresistible as she swim skated through her under the sea world. The ocean floor came to life right before my eyes and we sang along to “Under The Sea”.
Lilo and Stitch immersed us into the tropical paradise of Hawaii and we could not help but fall in love with our little experiment 626 all over again. 
Of course in between each scene Mickey, Minnie and friends made an appearance to guide us through their magical journey.
During the final act we were off to Neverland with Peter Pan, Wendy, Captain Hook and of course Tinker Bell. The pixie dust was flowing as Tinker Bell magically helped Wendy, Michael and John rise high in the sky and fly around. It truly was a breathtaking moment. Both children and adults were caught up in the magic that only Disney can supply. One of my favorite parts was near the end when Captain Hook is gobbled up by a cranky larger than life crocodile! Now I understand why you never smile at a crocodile!
In the true Disney fashion there were fireworks at the end! 
My family loves Disney On Ice and we especially enjoyed this edition of the show. 
Disney On Ice is touring the USA. You can find it in a town near you and buy tickets by clicking here!

If you have the chance to get to the show, don’t let it pass you by, you will not be disappointed!
Playing Prudential Center Now-Jan.16
Playing IZOD Center Jan. 19-22
