Shaun the Sheep Animal Antics Review & Giveaway

 

The creators of Wallace & Gromit, Shaun the Sheep and Timmy Time are at it again! They have teamed up with HIT Entertainment and Lionsgate for the release of their latest claymation adventure DVD in Shaun the Sheep: Animal Antics on July 26. 2011!

Here is the synopsis from the back cover of the Shaun the Sheep: Animal Antics DVD:

Welcome to Where Wild & Wacky Is the Norm!
Get ready for farm-fresh fun and laughter with Shaun the Sheep and his barnyard buddies, as they set the scene for more mayhem on the farm. Laugh out loud as Shaun tries to outfox a fox, Bitzer discovers his jazzy side, and the sheep try to sell everything on the farm to the highest bidder. Shaun and his friends deliver seven hilarious adventures full of animal antics that will make the whole family cock-a-doodle doo!

Here is the synopsis of the "7 Stories to Go Crazy Over!" from the press release:

• Foxy Laddie: A fox arrives at the farm, disguising himself as a handsome ram to infiltrate the flock and eat Timmy! All the lady sheep are beguiled by this charming new arrival – especially Shirley. Shaun becomes suspicious when the fox’s cunning disguise begins to fail.

• Whistleblower: Bitzer loses his precious whistle and tests out the Farmer’s trumpet as a replacement.  Before long, the power of the trumpet goes to his head and his fanfares and jazz-styled bugling drives the flock around the bend.

• Frantic Romantic
: The Farmer is trying to impress his new date by cooking her a romantic dinner. Unfortunately, the Farmer can’t cook and Bitzer is a useless maître d'. Can Shaun and the flock save the day when they take over the catering behind the scenes?

• Who’s the Caddy: The Farmer discovers his old golf clubs and decides to knock a few balls around in the field, instantly putting his back out. Shaun takes the opportunity to learn how to play while Bitzer, who desperately wants to show off his golfing prowess, is forced to tend to his injured master inside the house.

• Everything Must Go: The Farmer has set up a stall by the side of the road, selling produce from the garden. He leaves Bitzer in charge for the day. But lazy Bitzer soon gets bored and gives Shaun the job while he puts his feet up by the pool. Shaun proves to be a much better salesman than Bitzer and the flock is only too happy to get stuck in selling pretty much all of the Farmer’s worldly possessions! 

• In the Doghouse: When Bitzer’s kennel is accidentally destroyed he hopes the Farmer will replace it with a new deluxe model. But when he sees his master’s clumsy attempt to build a new kennel, Bitzer is so horrified he packs his bags and leaves home. Shaun hopes to tempt Bitzer to return with the kennel of his dreams.

• Cock-a-Doodle Shaun: The rooster is missing and there’s no one to wake up the farm. When Shaun discovers the rooster has been snatched by the greedy fox, he sets off with Bitzer on a daring rescue mission. Will they get the rooster back in time to wake up the rest of the farm?

My family loves these shows--it cracks me up to listen to my 4 year old laugh at the antics of the characters. To us there is just something about Shaun the Sheep that we all just love--they really are ageless shows--perfect for these hot days when you just need a good chuckle! We all think Animal Antics is great--or as my 4 yr old says. "It's Cooo" (his latest descriptive phrase for things and he can't say his L yet). It is getting plenty of play time at our home & in our car!

If your family is a Shaun the Sheep fan like mine is, Shaun the Sheep: Animal Antics will be coming your way, it really is fun entertainment for the whole family--ages 2-60+. It's bound to give you a few chuckles!
