2012 Gift Guide: Chuggington DVD, Icy Escapades

With it getting dark so early and with the weather so cold, there is nothing we like more than snuggling together on the couch to watch a DVD together.  At this time of year we especially like seasonal titles and one new favorite we recently got to check out is the new Chuggington DVD, Ice Escapades.

Here's a little description about it:

Everyone’s favorite trainees come home for the holidays with a “flurry” of warm and wonderful episodes from the award-winning TV series.  In this traintastic new collection of cold-weather adventures, the crew takes to the tracks as snow and ice cover Chuggington.  With help from their fellow Chuggers, the trainees learn how to make brr-ave rescue missions, dig their way out of snow drifts and even take to the skies when the wintery winds lift Hodge from the rails!  Young viewers will share in all the winter-focused fun, while they learn important lessons about teamwork and problem-solving in the DVD’s six seasonal stories, which include “Chilly Chuggers,” “Snowstruck Wilson,” “Wilson’s Icy Escapade,” “Heave-Ho Harrison,” “Hodge Sails Away” and “Rolling Reporter Wilson.”

We've been fans of Chuggington ever since it made its US debut a couple of years ago on the Disney's Channel's Disney Junior.  The show is about three trainee engines and their adventures as they work to gain experience and knowledge on the rails.  We like it's catchy theme song and the story lines that focus on learning life lessons and social skills.  The train theme is of high interest to my daughter and it's nice to have several wintery episodes all together in one collection.  I also like that it's great for viewing any time of the year but especially during the winter, meaning that you will want to watch it longer than just during the holiday season.  Meaning that if your train fan unwraps it on the 25th, you'll still get months of watching it!

The new Chuggington DVD Icy Escapades is available now, with a suggested retail of $14.98 and runs for approximately 62 minutes and makes a great stocking stuffer!
