Get Ready for Spring with Kidorable SpongeBob Squarepants and Dora the Explorer Rain Gear

It may seem like we’re still in the depths of winter, but according to that loveable groundhog, spring is just around the corner! And with the warmer temperatures of spring comes lots of rain, which is why Kidorable has released a fabulous new line of licensed rain gear just in time for April showers!

The new styles feature SpongeBob Squarepants or Dora the Explorer and offer boots, umbrellas and rain coats to keep little ones dry and stylish when the rain starts to fall. Zackary’s rain coat has been getting a little small for him and while the Fireman coat is cute, he had outgrown it a bit maturity-wise as well. So I was delighted when I got the chance to review one of the new SpongeBob Squarepants rain coats.

There’s No Such Thing as Summer Boredom with LEGO SpongeBob Squarepants Building Sets-Giveaway

Summer vacation is a time for lots of fun outdoor activities and family bonding, but summer is also a time when parents sometimes desperately need to get work done while kids are getting in the way looking for something to do! This summer, Nickelodeon Canada wants to help you prepare for those moments with a little help from everyone’s favourite sponge…SpongeBob Squarepants!

If you have school-aged children in the house, you’re probably already familiar with the cheerful sponge, his starfish best friend Patrick, his grumpy co-worker Squidward and his meowing pet snail Gary. And if you haven’t heard of SpongeBob before, never fear! Unlike some children’s shows, SpongeBob Squarepants is actually pretty enjoyable viewing for adults as well as kids!

SpongeBob Squarepants: SpongeBob’s Frozen Face-Off DVD-Review and Giveaway

While winter may have been mild so far, you’ll be feeling a chill when you check out the newest SpongeBob Squarepants DVD from Nickelodeon, SpongeBob Squarepants: SpongeBob’s Frozen Face-Off! Here’s a brief synopsis:

spongebob squarepants frozen face-off box artIt’s a race to the South Pole! With the whole town occupied, will Plankton finally get his hands on the formula and end the Krusty Krab’s fast-food supremacy for good? Includes on-air tentpole episode, “Frozen Face-Off” and six more episodes from the current eighth season! Also features four bonus episodes from Nick’s popular shows “T.U.F.F. Puppy” and “Fanboy and Chum Chum”.

Zackary enjoyed the DVD as much as he enjoys any of his SpongeBob DVDs, but what he really loves about this particular DVD is that it also features episodes from one of his other favourite television shows, Fanboy and Chum Chum! He loved being able to watch episodes from both shows on one DVD and I loved that he wasn’t constantly requesting that I put on a new disc. Instead, we kept this DVD in our machine for a few days and he just chose the show and episode he wanted when he sat down for a half-hour to enjoy some television.

SpongeBob Squarepants: SpongeBob’s Frozen Face-off is available today on DVD, so check your local retailer or shop online now. This fun new release from Nickelodeon is a great way to add some enjoyment to the chill of winter and fight off boredom on a cold January day!
