'Twas the Night Before Easter

VeggieTales DVDs are a staple here at our house and I just love how watching a VeggieTales show with Bob and Larry opens up conversations that may have otherwise been too difficult for my girls to comprehend. Needless to say, I knew that VeggieTales' newest release 'Twas the Night Before Easter was going to be in our DVD library well before Easter this year.


You can read the complete detailed description of 'Twas the Night Before Easter here. But I recommend watching the great trailer they've come up with below...



VeggieTales has also partnered with World Vision on this DVD to help teach kids the importance of helping others in a tangible way. There is a special feature of Bob and Larry encouraging child sponsorship through World Vision. The promo video in this clip also features the faces of some awesome blogging mommas who went to the Dominican Republic with World Vision, which is pretty cool if you ask me! :) You can learn more about VeggieTales' and World Vision's partnership for sponsoring children here.
And just because after watching 'Twas the Night Before Easter I was left wondering, "What is a cassava?" I had to let you know that thanks to a suggestion by World Vision the great veggie singing sensation Cassie Cassava was born because the cassava root is a primary source of food for developing nations in Africa and South America.
GET YOUR OWN: VeggieTales' 'Twas the Night Before Easter will be available for purchase at your local Walmart on Tuesday. You can also purchase this great new DVD online at the VeggieTales website for just $14.99.WIN ONE: One lucky SIMPLE reader has an opportunity to win a copy of this DVD for the little one in your life from Big Idea!
