VeggieTales: Pistachio Review and Giveaway- 2 Winners

Photobucket

I used to teach Sunday school and I would do some occasional babysitting during the week. Most of the time when I would babysit during the church events, we would watch a video, this was back when VCR’s were still big. We would always watch a VeggieTales tape. I enjoyed watching it with the kids back then and I decided when I became a mom that I wanted my child to watch VeggieTales too. I really like the characters, stories and messages. I also think they do a great job of holding a child’s attention. Watching Christian based DVD’s with my son is important to me. We have another series we really like to watch too. So, when I had the opportunity to review the newest VeggieTales DVD Pistachio, I was really excited. I only had one VeggieTales DVD that I had bought online.

Check out the Trailer for Pistachio here

VeggieTales is made by Big Idea Entertainment. It stars all kinds of fun vegetables. There is Larry who is a cucumber and Bob who is a tomato to name a couple. All of the stories are made to teach you a lesson and it also uses Christian values and morals to help the Veggies learn about right and wrong. They sing the cutest songs too. My favorite VeggieTales song is God is bigger than the boogie man. The songs are catchy and they get stuck in your head really easily. They are so much fun to dance to and sing along.

When I received the DVD, I couldn’t wait to watch it with Noah. He really enjoyed watching it. He talked about the different veggies. He loves to name things he sees. Pistachio really gauged his interest and he thought it was hilarious. At one point he was laughing so hard I thought he was going cry. His laughter was deep belly laughs and I could tell he really likes it. He liked it so much that he asked to watch it again. He only asks to watch something again if he thought it was good. Of course I couldn’t resist his little please can I? Can I? Can I? Mommy please? I hope you all check it out with your little VeggieTales fan. It is a great movie that all ages will enjoy. I thought it was adorable and really liked it.

For more information and to order please visit Big Idea Entertainment’s Website. You can also find Pistachio at a store near you.
