The Odd Life of Timothy Green delivers family entertainment

Rare are PG movies.  Even more uncommon are PG movies that are entertaining for the entire family.  In the wrong hands The Odd Life of Timothy Green could’ve been a disaster.  Thankfully the strong script, solid acting and just enough magic combine to make a wonderful family film that covers all the bases without stopping too long on any one of them. Continue reading The Odd Life of Timothy Green delivers family entertainment

What Christmas toys will toddlers play with after July?

Toddlers love to play.  They can play with an empty box and a pile of Styrofoam peanuts.  When parents purchase toys for toddlers they should be durable, interesting and something that will be played with for as long as possible.

Brave is not your typical ‘princess’ animated movie

Go see a Disney Pixar movie?  Sure thing, I don’t even need to read the plot description, it’s bound to be somewhat along the lines of the others.  Fabulous animation, great songs and dialogue that will entertain the kids and make parents laugh too.   Brave is most of that, but it’s also very different.  I didn’t know anything about the movie prior to watching it and the film left me feeling lukewarm.  After watching a preview of the film, after I saw the movie, I liked the movie a little bit more.
