Parent and Kid Reviews
Based on 4 parent reviews
What's the Story?
In FACE'S SUPER SNOWTACULAR HOLIDAY SPECIAL, everyone's favorite Nick Jr. characters are gearing up for Hanukkah, Christmas, and Kwanzaa at Face's holiday dance party. Short skits and songs ranging from original raps to upbeat pop carols capture the essence of the holidays. Images of different celebrations and winter rituals like festive lights and winter sports ramp up the excitement. A grumpy lump of coal tries to put a damper on holiday cheer. How will Face and the rest of the characters change his heart?
Is It Any Good?
The ultimate holiday dance party will have little ones moving from the beginning to the end. Face's Super Snowtacular Holiday Special is a musical extravaganza perfect for the whole family, as it boasts holiday music from a variety of genres. Kids will love seeing their favorite Nick Jr. characters gear up for the holidays, especially since they can learn about holidays they may not celebrate at home. There are funny videos that parents will get a chuckle out of -- for example, a creative rap shouts out holiday gift wrap and all of the accessories that go along with it, and a funny ode to the potato celebrates all of its holiday uses, from potato latkes to sweet potato pie. Nick Jr. nails it with this colorful, fun (and quick!) viewing experience.
