“The Backyardigans: Christmas With the Backyardigans” DVD Review
My boys love to watch The Backyardigans…and I admit I love to watch it as well. I often find myself singing along with the boys or just enjoying the show! On October 5th, Nickelodeon and Paramount Home Entertainment released The Backyardigans: Christmas With the Backyardigans on DVD.
DVD SYNOPSIS:
When Abominable Snowmen Tyrone and Austin take Santa’s magic sack, it’s up to the heroic Action Elves to use their terrific toy-building talents to get the sack back on this brand new DVD. Featuring four new-to-DVD episodes, preschoolers will be introduced to different music genres and instruments including Memphis Soul, Society Band, Hootenanny, and even a Balalaika Orchestra.
In every episode of The Backyardigans, five high-spirited neighbors meet in their adjoining backyards and use their imaginations to transform themselves into different locations for epic adventures. Each half-hour episode of this Emmy Award-winning show features a unique music/dance genre with four original songs, along with real choreographed movements recreated in animation.
