Giveaway: Veggie Tales ‘Twas the Night Before Easter

It’s Easter time in Crisper County and cable news reporter Marlee Meade is hunting for a way to help others. She cooks up a plan to save the old theater with a cast of costume-clad townies, massive props and a 20-foot robot rabbit to perform “Up With Bunnies.” Now there’s only one thing missing – the star of the show! When word spreads that singing sensation Cassie Cassava (Melinda Doolittle) is arriving to perform in her hometown church’s Easter service, Marlee schemes to steal the starlet for her own pageant! But when things go haywire, will it be curtains for Marlee’s dreams – or will she discover the true meaning of Easter and what helping others is really all about?

 

VeggieTales has created their first Easter DVD in seven years, VeggieTales: ‘Twas the Night Before Easter. Just in time for Easter, kids are reminded that Jesus is what this holiday is all about. They’re also encouraged to help others as they hear the Easter message. ‘Twas the Night Before Easter also introduces a new VeggieTales character, Cassie Cassava, voiced by American Idol top finalist Melinda Doolittle.

What I love about ‘Twas the Night Before Easter is the fact that Big Idea Entertainment has teamed up with World Vision as part of the DVD’s release. The partnership will focus on building a greater awareness of how families can help care for those in need with opportunities to sign up for child sponsorships through World Vision, as well as in person at numerous Christian retail stores across the country.  Child sponsorship packets for World Vision will be available at participating stores wherever there are VeggieTales Easter displays and World Vision displays.  The Easter DVD will also include a World Vision promotional video with a special message from Bob and Larry as an added feature.

  5. The only one that I can think of is the Veggie Tales theme song, and that’s because my kids sing it all the time! 🙂

  10. We haven’t seen many of the Veggie Tales, yet, since my son is just now getting old enough to be interested in them, but the one we have is Joshua. On this video there is a song about “Boo-hoo Moo-moo, Boo-hoo Moo-moo, Boo-hoo Moo-moo, Boo-hoo Moo-moo,…” Every time we watch this video, this song makes me laugh!

  16. My son randomly sings God is Bigger than the Boogie Mn so I would have to say that is my favorite!

  19. I really love the song in Sweetpea Beauty…I think it might be sung by Nicole Nordeman (one of my favorites!).

  29. The song I sing the most, besides the main song, is ‘being selfish, doesn’t pay’. I use it on my kids at select times.

  46. I love the song “I can be your friend” Reminds me that no matter how different we are from each other, we should love and treat everyone the same:) Because God created us equal and loves us all the same:)

  50. I don’t know the name, but it goes like this- I need to tell you something. I don’t got a bellybutton. My kids thought this was so funny to sing to my when I was pregnant and you couldn’t tell that I had a belly button.

  54. we do not have any veggie tale movies… so I do not have a favorite…. YET! Choose us so we can find a favorite!

  58. My favorite used to be “hairbrush” but now I am partial to “cheeseburger” – I’ll wait for you-oo…yes, I’ll wait for you-oo 🙂

  60. favorite song: BELLYBUTTON~~~~now that’s some good music…just ask our 20 month old

  62. OOOOOHHHH Where is my hairbrush!
    My daughter is here and she says…I wanna win…lol (she is 2)
