Baseball gets the Amelia Bedelia treatment as she agrees to help out some neighborhood boys with a game against their cross town rivals. Another funny look at how words can mean multiple things that kids and parents will enjoy.

The Voice Acting
Disney classic and dog-gone good
I loved this movie as a kid and it still holds up. Endearing, great voice-acting, and just the right length for kids that are just getting into full length movies.
I freely admit that Cruella DeVille freaked me out as a kid though.

The first of 3 films, about a kid trying to fit in at middle school. Everyone can relate to a large part of the film. Starting a new school, with older kids, growing up and trying to fit in. It has a few childish moments meant to be funny for very young viewers perhaps. Overall a decent family comedy film.

We have several of these in our house. Many uses, easy to use. Set lights up so we can have google turn on certain lights. Get news first thing in the morning, set alarms and timers. Found it helpful with kids and homework. Fun features like asking "Where is Santa" or getting goofy answers to random questions.

This was a quick and entertaining read. The characters felt a little flat to me but I think it is because it is for a younger reader. This would be a good book for kids. I found myself enjoying the story line. The plot is interesting. I might continue on in the series if I am looking for another quick read.

This movie is on Netflix right now. It turned out to be really good. The description doesn't do it justice. The acting and cinematography were great and the story played out intensely with a few twists and turns. There are a few parts in the movie that I would say aren't for kids, but this one is definitely worth a watch!

Child and Adult Humor
The humor in this is great...something for all ages. While some of the technology terms may baffle the older crowd, the adult humor will make you LOL while going right over the kids' heads. It's also got great lessons about being yourself and not being a bully which are important themes today.

We all know what children can be like, they are so honest in a very funny way. They will shock you, embarrass you and shame you to the core whilst being so damn cute about it.
This is a very amusing book full of kiddie quips and crazy questions that'll leave you speechless...oh kids.

**WaterSnakes is NOT for kids!!** Wow. This story is like a trippy nightmare! It's so odd, out-there, dark, and imaginative. WaterSnakes is a graphic novel that looks like a long picture book. It's even picture book sized (the hardcover). The art is both cute and beautiful. You will go right along with Mila throughout her dream...if it even was a dream.

Strange
This was a weird one. It's an interesting concept but really wasn't explained very well. Just suddenly all parents want to kill their kids... literally. The acting wasn't bad, the cinematography was fine but the storyline came up short. Didn't really have much of an ending. Nothing was resolved. Anyway, it's entertaining enough if you're bored. Kinda worth a watch.
