Tangled DVD Review & Giveaway

My Name is Tara - and I'm a Disney movie-a-holic.
Having kids has been a blessing for me.
Not just because Mummy-hood is so rewarding,
But because I can go see Disney films at the Cinema,
and not seem like a lonely giant creep,
as I have two children in tow.

For Easter, I sent a long letter to the Easter Bunny,
begging for some children's DVDs for my kids,
Because between you me & the rest of the world,
I hate Larry the Lawnmower.

I think Easter Bunny has some excellent contacts,
BECAUSE,
I was sent a copy of Tangled to review.
The moment I received it I was jumping up & down screaming,
"Yes, Yes, Yes!"
in my driveway.


I live on a main road, and it was during school pick up time,
so I did have a few parents giving me sidelong glances,
and I didn't care.

After dinner and bath time,
Master S grabbed our copy of Tangled,
and ran to the DVD player.
He turned off Larry the Lawnmower,
so I was already in love with the film before we watched it.

As we three snuggled up on the couch,
I was not disappointed, and neither were the kidlets.
Tangled is a new & improved version of Rapunzel.
For anyone not familiar with the story,
Rapunzel is a princess trapped in a tower with super long hair,
and in true Disney fashion,
Tangled is cute, witty, and appropriate for all ages.
Master S was glued to the film from start to finish,
and even when I giggled, I was told to "shhhhh" by him.

Despite the film's main characters being Rapunzel [of course],
and Flynn Rider,
it was the characters Pascal the chameleon & Maximus the horse who were our family favourites.

I expect that Tangled will be watched over, and over, and over again in the Happy House.
...I am positive the kids won't mind my obsession.

And thanks to the lovely folk at Porter Novelli,

[this is the super, duper, awesome, fun bit]

  7. I love pretty much all Disney but my favourite is Mary Poppins. Perhaps we watched it a little too much when my kids were little - my son spoke with a Cockney accent for ages! Very cute on a 3 year old Aussie!

  10. I love Cars. My son is obsessed with the thought of Cars 2, and my girls love Cars too. So funny, so human, so clever, such a great message.
