My munchkin boys are always ready willing and eager to watch a VeggieTales video, and when it is a Christmas one to boot...well, they were excited as could be when this DVD arrived at our house! Mom too, I admit it.
In Veggie Tales Saint Nicholas: A Story of Joyful Giving, the Veggies discover the true joy of giving to others -- at Christmas time and throughout the year! As a mom to three kids that all are very enamored with the idea of receiving more than of giving, I so appreciated the lesson in this Veggie Tales movie. With Christmas fast approaching and the stores filling up with "must have" toys and computers and such, it is so nice to be able to share some moments with my children helping them to remember the true spirit of Christmas.
A quick synopsis of the movie:
Laura Carrot's Christmas stocking might be empty this year because her dad is in danger of losing his job. While Larry thinks a letter to the North Pole should fix the problem, Bob knows what will really help ... and tells the story of a little boy named Nicholas who made a discovery in Bethlehem that changed Christmas forever. But what did Nick learn and how can it possibly help Laura and her family?!
