MY THOUGHTS

My boys enjoy watching SpongeBob SquarePants and they love the holidays. SpongeBob SquarePants: Holidays with SpongeBob is the perfect combination of SpongeBob SquarePants and the holidays.  We enjoyed the Christmas DVD the most, but all of the episodes were fun to watch.  “Chocolate with Nuts” was really funny.  The whole time I kept thinking that I would have totally bought a candy bar (or five) from SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick.  A big thank you to Nickelodeon Home Entertainment and Paramount Home Entertainment for making this DVD review possible.
