BooksStories on Screen: DVD Giveaway

June 23, 2011 by Jennifer

I walked out to retrieve my mail and found one of those fun, unsolicited, unexpected packages. In this case, a series of DVDs from HIT Entertainment. And because I don’t really need them, I decided to leave them unopened and simply write up an informational giveaway post and pass the videos along to one of you!

Timmy Time: Picture Day — available June 28

From the back of the box: Come along for a picture-perfect day of fun with your preschool pal, Timmy! From good clean fun during school photo day to drumming up music lessons, these wonderful stories filled with surprises will have you laughing in a flash. So snap up these five adorable tales with a big focus on fun!

Fireman Sam: Brave New Rescues — available July 5

From the back of the box: Fireman Sam is back for more heroic adventures in fire safety! Fireman Sam and his friends in Pontypandy work together to save the day when Mike’s kitchen catches fire. Dilys gets stuck out at sea, and Norman cries wolf. . . literally! Come along with the hero next door and his brave brigade for some courageous adventures and daring new rescues the whole family will enjoy.

Hit Favorites: Preschool Fun – available July 5

Features 8 episodes in all from Barney, Thomas, Fireman Sam, Bob the Builder, Angelina Ballerina, Kipper, Roary the Racing Car, and Timmy.

So leave a comment if you are interested, and I’ll send these along to you (U.S. addresses only). Just for grins, tell me which DVD the child in your life would watch first. I’ll announce the winner on July 6.The giveaway is closed.

Jennifer Donovan actually misses preschool television now that her kids are 7 and 12 and don’t watch it anymore. She blogs about what they do watch at Snapshot.

    I think both would be hits, but Fireman Sam sounds like fun…and I think that would be watched first!

    I personally love Timmy Time (but that’s b/c I’ve always been a fan of Wallace and Gromit) but I think the boys would watch Fireman Sam first.

    Great for my grandsons.
    I think Sam the Fireman would stand out because Sam is their Dad’s name and because we just had a house fire. (See blog post)
