Dr. Seuss's Deluxe Edition Cat in the Hat DVD + Blu-Ray Review and Giveaway

We are Dr. Seuss fans in my house. I love Hop on Pop, Green Eggs and Ham and my favorite Cat in the Hat. The classic cartoons that I saw as a kid have now been fully remastered on Blu-Ray and DVD. They look great! I love being able to share these cute and silly cartoons with my son.

Warner Home Video’s deluxe edition of “Dr. Seuss’s The Cat in the Hat” will be in stores August 7, 2012. The sing a long part will be great for the future as my son learns to read. I play it for him now so he can see words go along with the singing. (that and so I can know the words right to sing along with him lol)

DVD Summary:

While their mother is out on a shopping errand, Dick and Sally are stuck indoors on a dull, rainy day, with nothing to do. Their dreary afternoon, however takes an unexpected turn when they’re paid a visit by a charismatic, six-foot tall, hat-wearing cat, who invites himself in to search for his misplaced “moss-covered, three-handled family gredunza.”

Employing the “Calculatus Eliminatus” method, the children help the Cat in the Hat look for his missing keepsake but in the process, leave the house in a mess. Mr. Krinkelbein, the family’s wise pet goldfish, who in effort to look out for the kids’ best interest, protests the Cat in the Hat’s shenanigans and orders him to leave. The Cat in the Hat however, preoccupied with finding his missing “gredunza,” enlists the help of his best friends, Thing One and Thing Two, to help with the search but the pair only manage to bring the house into further disarray.   

Unfazed by the chaos that’s slowly unfolding around them, Dick and Sally are captivated by the Cat in the Hat and his madcap, whimsical ways. They pass the afternoon in sheer delight, singing happy songs and engaging in playful mayhem with their uninvited guest. Even the cynical Mr. Krinkelbein is won over by the Cat’s infectious charm. Everyone is having way too much fun to notice the house is a complete mess! That’s until Dick and Sally hear their mother coming home. How in the world will they clean up the enormous mess before she walks through the front door?

Cat and Fish, two things my son loves to talk about.

Cat in the Hat is a classic story I love sharing with my son. He loves the books and is too young for the real action movie so this is a perfect way to share Dr. Seuss with him. Our favorite part is where Cat in the Hat says who he is in different languages, Spanish, French, German and Eskimo. Makes me and my son both giggle. " I am a Katze in a Hut" for German, you have to hear it on the movie for it to sound right. 

We are hosting a giveaway for a copy of Dr. Seuss's Deluxe Edition Cat in the Hat DVD + Blu-Ray for one of our lucky readers to win.
