Backyardigans: We Arrrr Pirates DVD Review

“The Backyardigans are setting sail with four exciting pirate adventures on this brand new DVD, The Backyardigans: We Arrrr Pirates. Preschoolers will learn to mambo with Sinbad and become heroes when they rescue King Pablo and his knights from the No-So-Nice Dragon. Created by Nickelodeon Home Entertainment and distributed by Paramount Home Entertainment, The Backyardigans: We Arrrr Pirates DVD hits shelves March 8, 2011, for the suggested retail price of $16.99.

In every episode of The Backyardigans, five high-spirited neighbors meet in their adjoining backyards and use their imaginations to transform themselves into different locations for epic adventures. Each half-hour episode of this Emmy® Award-winning show features a unique music/dance genre with four original songs, along with real choreographed movements recreated in animation.”

To say that my boys are fans of “Backyardigans” is a serious understatement. When the theme song begins to play, my 15 month old immediately starts spinning around and around, and my 2 year old dances and claps to the beat. It is by far their favorite show. So this review is going to be rather biased… LOL. We love Backyardigans, and we LOVED the Backyardigans: We Arrrr Pirates DVD. I love the theme collection- especially if your child enjoys pirates. I love having the Backyardigans on DVD for the van- we’ve been house-hunting and it’s really kept the boys entertained as we drive from house to house. There really isn’t much more to say- Nickelodeon has done it again! It comes out TODAY so go and get your copy!
