The Cat In The Hat Knows a Lot About Space! is an adventure which finds the Cat in the Hat, Nick,  Sally, and fish on a journey through space in the Space-ama-racer in search for a flying robot dog. While they are there they assist with Operation Rover Repair, when they find out Astronaut Audrey's robot dog Space Rover got entangled in space junk while trying to explore a part of the Solar System. Together, they survive many obstacles and have to work together to make it safely back to the Space Station and Earth!

My Thoughts:
We love Dr. Seuss in my house. We have a large collection of books and I am trying to build my collection of DVDs. The Cat In The Hat Knows a Lot About Space! will be my second DVD for the collection that I hope to grow.

This DVD is from the Dr. Seuss TV series on PBS Kids of The Cat In The Hat Knows a Lot About That! and now that this series is also on Netflix we are enjoying it even more since we don't own a TV. My favorite character has to be Dr. Twiggles. He is quite cooky, but knows his trees very well. I love the Cat in The Hat too of course. Martin Short does a great voice for him :) We love how the show teaches about different things in each episode. I always learn something that I didn't know or had forgotten.

The Cat In The Hat Knows a Lot About Space! is an hour long special that was broadcast on PBS Kids on December 26, 2016. It is now available on DVD. As is with most Dr. Seuss there is a lot of rhyming, but this is not overdone. The characters sometimes are musical and break into song. The lyrics to the songs are catchy and fun. I loved how this movie taught to: work together, cooperate, help each other, problem solve, and never give up. These are such important life lessons. Also, I love how polite and nice everyone are with each other, especially the children with the parents and vice versa. They always ask their mother whether it is OK to go on adventures with The Cat In The Hat even though they know she is going to say yes every time.

I recommend this film for ages two to eight. My daughters who are 6 and 8 enjoyed this so much.  As an adult and parent I love these for the educational content and fun learning environment. The Cat In The Hat Knows a Lot About Space! is sure to please.

Celebrate Earth Day with Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood!

Do you remember as a child watching Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood? I sure do and it was one of my favorite TV shows as a child and now for my children. Now The Fred Rogers Company has created a very cute TV series called Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood that is based on the Neighborhood of Make-Believe from Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. An all new, extra special episode premieres on April 22 (check local listings) for Earth Day – just in time to help young viewers learn the importance of cleaning up, picking up and recycling.

The new show features two adorable stories. In Neighborhood Clean Up, a wind storm blows through town making a mess of the Neighborhood playground and no one can play. King Friday proclaims that it is “Clean Up Day” and everyone helps restore the playground by throwing out and recycling the trash. The Neighborhood children – along with young viewers at home – learn that, by working together, the playground can be ready for play again in no time! And in Clean Up Time, Daniel and his best friend O the Owl are playing “farm” at Daniel’s house. They are having a lot of fun, but are also making quite a mess! After losing his watch in a messy room, Daniel realizes that cleaning up and putting his toys away will help him find it. And the great clean-up begins!

Inspired by Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood and the upcoming special Earth Day-themed episode, here are some simple and fun ideas for celebrating the special day (and Mother Earth) together with your toddler/preschooler:

• Proclaim your own “Clean Up Day”! Tidy up your yard, and clean out the winter clutter. While you’re at it, find out what kind of trees, plants and wildlife are “at home” in your backyard and neighborhood, too! 
• Plant a garden! Pick out the kinds of vegetables you’d like to grow or design a flower bed together – kids love to get their hands dirty! If you live in an apartment, you can create a beautiful flower or herb garden right on your terrace or windowsill. 
• Help beautify a park or playground! Get a group of parents and preschoolers together and visit a local park to help make sure that it’s trash free and ready for playtime! 
• Recycle together! Invite your children to get in on the act of recycling! Have them assist you in tying up those newspapers and magazines, collecting the cans and bottles, crunching the cardboard boxes – and making sure that everything goes in its proper bin. 

Here is a short clip of one of the episodes:

And don’t forget to tune-in to the brand-new Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood Earth Day episode together. It’s another perfect way for families to make Earth Day a special day in their neighborhood! If you miss these episodes make sure to check your local listings and you can catch the show at another time.

PBS Kids Super WHY and the Beach Day Mystery Review

I admit that this is my very first episode that I have ever watched of  Super WHY. I received a advance previewing copy free so that I could review it as well as tell you about the show on PBS Kids. Super WHY is a preschool TV series on PBS Kids that teaches the basics of reading through interactive storybook adventures. Teela enjoyed watching it and was following along with saying the letters of the alphabet before they said them. I liked that the show was educational. This brand new episode is supposed to air July 12. The Super Readers (Whyatt, Pig, Red Riding Hood, and Princess Pea) set off on a swashbuckling scavenger hunt filled with clues, pirates, and of course, treasure. Super Why (Whyatt's superego) and his friends, who all turn into superheros with different reading powers, need help as they try to outsmart a very tricky pirate. I won't spoil the ending for anyone who wants to watch the episode.

The literary experts from Super WHY have created a fun and educational newsletter that includes great tips to keep the family reading even, while enjoying fun in the sun! Click on it to make it bigger.
