Mickey’s Magical Christmas on DVD

MickeyMagicalXmasOn Tuesday November 3rd, Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment will release Mickey’s Magical Christmas: Snowed In at the House of Mouse on DVD! This Christmas, share a hilarious and moving holiday celebration with Mickey and Minnie Mouse in this full-length adventure. This classic tale is sure to leave everyone in holiday spirits, starring more than 35 Disney characters including Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Cinderella, Ariel, Belle, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Bambi, Dumbo, The Lion King and more!

In this full-length adventure, a huge snowstorm leaves Mickey, Minnie and many other friends stranded leading Mickey and his guests at the House of Mouse to whip up an impromptu party that includes instilling a “Humbug”-quacking Donald Duck with the holiday spirit. Everyone shares their home movies and even grumpy Donald starts to smile when they realize the “Best Christmas of All” is the one you share with friends and family.

Mickey&Minnie

It’s fun to see so many Disney characters in one DVD, even if it is odd to have Ariel and Mickey on the same screen. Kaitlyn’s favorite is Chapter 6, “The Nutcracker”, mine is “Pluto’s Christmas Tree”, which is also available on the Mickey’s Christmas Carol DVD.

BONUS FEATURES:

*Episode of animated series House of Mouse.

*The Sounds of Christmas – discover the secrets of movie sound effects with a Disney sound effects artist. This also includes a special version of “Twas the Night Before Christmas.”

*Sing-Along Songs “Deck the Halls” and “Sleigh Ride”

The suggested retail price is $26.99, but if you click this link, you can buy Mickey’s Magical Christmas from me as an Amazon Associate and I’ll earn a nickel or two :) It really is a cute DVD for any Disney lover!

2. Download a free copy of national life balance expert Renee Trudeau’s award winningThe Mother’s Guide to Self-Renewal: How to Reclaim, Rejuvenate and Re-Balance Your Life for 48 hours: May 8th-May 10th at www.mothersguidetoselfrenewal.com

3. LOVE, MOM: Poignant, Goofy, Brilliant Messages from Home is a collection of around 250 emails, IMs, and text messages sent from Mothers to their Daughters.  From the authors of the hilarious Postcards From Yo Momma blog.  Funny, sweet, and entertaining, LOVE, MOM is the ideal Mother’s Day gift for Moms with a good sense of humor!

4. Bedtime Stories on DVD or Blu-Ray (DVD has a single disc package or a two-disc set with digital copy for eight bucks more).  Adam Sandler stars as a man who makes up bedtime stories for his niece and nephew only to find out they came true the next day. Rated PG.

5. SoftHands and Deep Moisture from Softress- soothe Mom’s dry hands and skin with luxurious blends of plant oils and antioxidants, no added fragrances, so gentle they are edible!

6. For Moms that love candles, Febreze has come out with their Exotic Destinations collection, with three candles whose scent is reminiscent of Brazil, Hawaii, or Morocco. They look pretty, smell great, last a long time, and aren’t expensive- score!

7. Blogger Dawn Meehan, who I met at the Campbell’s event earlier this year, wrote a really funny book titled “Because I Said So“. Dawn and her husband have six kids and there’s never a dull moment! Her book would make a great gift for Moms who like to read funny, irreverent parenting stories.

8. Does your Mom/Wife like to cook?  Give her  one-year subscription to online meal-planning site emealsforyou. Use code MOMCKS-23 to get a 12-month subscription for only $29.00!

9.  Let Mom spend a day relaxing and escaping into romantic 19th century England with Pride & Prejudice on Blu-Ray or DVD. Three discs contain all five hours of the original miniseries plus a retrospective documentary with the actors looking back on the filming (alas, Colin Firth does not appear), a walking tour of the shooting locations, and an A&E Biography episode about Jane Austen. Available in stores and on Amazon.

10. Speaking of relaxing, show your Mom you know she deserves “Me Time” with a Me Time t-shirt.  Whether it’s her own box of chocolates to savor, time for a long bath, or even uninterrupted computer time, let your Mom/Wife know that you understand the importance of her having balance in her life.

These are just a few of the terrific products I’ve come across for Mother’s Day gifts. Or for buying any time of the year!
