Disney Holiday Blogger Event

Posted on 13 December 2010 by Divina Rodriguez

I love the holidays not only for the cheer and family time but in New York City they have the best blogger events!

One of these great blogger events is the Disney Holiday Blogger event that Babyboy, my sisters and I were thrilled to attend. The event showcased many of the fantastic Disney products we have been posting on like Disney’s The Search for Santa Paw movie, Wizards of Waverly Place: Spellbound Video Game, Mater’s Tall Tales Video Game, Tangled DS Video Game and Disney Online.

We had so much fun hanging out with Kaitlyn Maher from Santa Paws movie, decorating cookies, ornaments and doing a Fantasia inspired artwork.

Check out the video I put together of the games and activities we partook in.

Our favorite activity was decorating the reindeer ornament which is now hanging proudly on our tree and finding out about all the creative and fun holiday projects they have on line.  Anything Disney is a great idea for your holiday shopping.  Your family is going to love the video games and the home made projects.

Disclaimer: I attended this Disney sponsored event and received a Cisco’s HD Flip camera to video my experience but my post is my unbiased experience on the games.

Wizards of Waverly Place: Spellbound Video Game Review

Posted on 08 December 2010 by Divina Rodriguez

Readers, I won’t lie to you.   I have never seen a full episode of "Wizards of Waverly Place" I don’t like the premise of the three siblings, having to magically duke things out for a chance to keep their powers.  I also don’t like that the Dad had to give up his powers because he wanted to marry the love of his life a non magical person but obviously I am in the minority as the show is a big hit for Disney and they have come out with a video game…back to the game review.  ; )

Based on the wildly popular Disney Channel television series, Disney Interactive Studios’ brings you Wizards of Waverly Place: Spellbound game which allows players to play as Justin, Alex or Max as you hunt for a missing dress before a big fashion show.  You have to solve puzzles and use your entire wizard in training skills like freezing objects and turning people into hamsters to find that dress.

The game was cute and how else in life are you ever going to turn people into hamsters or freeze objects!  The game is perfect for any fan of the show but also has features like collecting up to 25 outfits for Alex makes it a great game for a tween in your life.  They will love the puzzles and how they get a chance to visit the popular hang outs from the television show like the Russo loft, Tribeca Prep and Waverly Sub Station.

Game retails for $29.99 and is only available for Nintendo DS.

Disclaimer: I received a sample game for my review but my post is my unbiased opinion on my gaming experience.
