GRR-IFIC GIFT-SET NOW AVAILABLE TO OWN
Just in time for the holidays, PBS Distribution recently released a new “DANIEL TIGER’S HAPPY HOLIDAYS DVD + FIGURINE” gift set for fans of this hit preschool PBS Kids animated series.. This new gift-set from the popular PBS KIDS series offers two ways to interact with Daniel Tiger. The DVD “Daniel Tiger’s Happy Holidays” includes seven grr-ific tales, one of which is a double holiday episode, Snowflake Day!, that is sure to delight fans and get them excited about the holidays. The gift-set also features a Daniel Tiger figurine with movable head and arms. Kids will love watching these fun-filled stories while playing with the Daniel Tiger figurine.
"The first TV series inspired by the iconic, award-winning MISTER ROGERS’ NEIGHBORHOOD, DANIEL TIGER’S NEIGHBORHOOD, from The Fred Rogers Company, stars 4-year-old Daniel Tiger, son of the original program’s Daniel Striped Tiger, who invites young viewers into his world, giving them a kid’s-eye view of his life. As they closely follow and share Daniel’s everyday adventures, preschoolers ages 2-4 and their families learn the fun and practical strategies and skills necessary for growing and learning. One of the key ingredients that sets the series apart is its groundbreaking use of catchy, musical strategies that reinforce each theme and that preschoolers and parents will both sing – and use – together in their daily lives. DANIEL TIGER’S NEIGHBORHOOD, which debuted in September 2012, airs Monday-Friday on PBS KIDS (check local listings)."
“DANIEL TIGER’S HAPPY HOLIDAYS DVD + FIGURINE” (SRP is $14.99) is now available to own, and was released on November 4th. The DVD run time is approximately 100 minutes.

As a parent, what I loved best about this new holiday set is that the episodes chosen to be included on this DVD are all about family. The episodes celebrate family as a whole, as well as moms, dads and even grandparents. In addition to teaching important life lessons and skills to handle things like anger, patience or even sharing, this popular animated series is perfect for preschoolers, and one I enjoy sitting down to watch each day with my girls. And, as we gear up for the holidays, the snow and Santa's arrival, the girls have a fun, new holiday DVD they will be watching this year and for years to come. Even if the six other episodes were not included on this DVD, I still would have bought it because I love the special double holiday episode, "Snowflake Day!," as do my girls. I've lost count on how many times we have watched it. And, they aren't getting bored with this DVD yet. :-)
This looks just adorable and what a great gift this Christmas. I love anything that PBS puts out.
