But Charlie!
I know when you read that title, you said it with a British accent just like Lola does, didn’t you? I know I would have. Charlie and Lola happens to be one of those cartoons that I absolutely adore. The characters are cute, and it’s definitely well scripted. When Charlie and Lola comes on in the morning sometimes I will sit down with my boys and watch.

What Can I Wear for Halloween was released last month, just in time for Halloween!

About The DVD
This September, the award-winning preschool series, Charlie and Lola, is back in the brand new BBC Video DVD release – Charlie and Lola Volume Nine: What Can I Wear for Halloween? This latest installment follows the delightful sibling duo and their friends as they prepare for their school’s Halloween Party. Charlie, Lola, Lotta and Marv have been growing a pumpkin all through summer, and it’s enormous. Everyone has decided what costumes to wear, except for Lola. On the day of the party, however, disaster strikes. Bat Boy (otherwise known as Morton from upstairs) splatters the pumpkin and now Lola has a double crisis on her hands. Featuring nine fun-filled episodes, including the double-length Autumn special, Everything is Different and Not the Same. It includes 9 episodes.

This is a pretty cute episode and the entire dvd does not disappoint. Chan was asking to watch it again when it was all said and done and he’s definitely more excited for Halloween now!

Price: Retails for $14.99 (It’s on sale for $9.99 at Barnes and Noble right now!)

Getting Ready for Halloween
Halloween is next month! I’m so excited, it’s one of my favorite holidays. Having kids makes it that much more fun. So far, we’ve gotten some of our Halloween decorations out, our Little People Halloween set, and have been watching a few Halloween shows. Speaking of which, we just received Mad Monster Party in the mail this last week. It totally brings back memories for me as it is puppet based and has the same creators as Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman.

About the Show
Mad Monster Party, the beloved animated Halloween classic, comes to Special Edition DVD this September from Lionsgate. Mad Monster Party: Special Edition is a hilariously spooky classic that includes a brand-new retrospective featurette and two fun sing-a-longs, and is encased in frighteningly fun neon O-card DVD packaging – making it the perfect treat for Halloween this year!

I enjoyed watching this Halloween dvd along with the boys. There were a lot of fun characters, and it was really captivating. The run time is 95 minutes, and includes lots of great special features, two of which are sing alongs that my boys really liked.

Price: $11.98

Where to Buy: Lionsgate Shop
