And even a very special appearance by Snow White!!! Something that was a real treat was the magical mirror that came with the Dvd. I think Jordyn's favorite episode was the tea party.

My favorite part of the video was the Buttercups. Similar to the girl scouts/brownies I love they teach how to work together and to let others know that sometimes you have to try stuff on your own. We are going through that right now with my daughter. She gives up on things to easy and I think this Dvd is perfect to teach her that. 



This was before we opened the dvd. I think we will be watching this for months to come. Don't forget to go and check this out when it comes out on Dvd on August 5th

Australian Series NEIGHBOURS Debuts on Hulu Today!



"Neighbours" is set in Ramsay Street, a residential cul-de-sac in the fictional Melbourne suburb of Erinsborough.  Exploring the trails and tribulations of families and friends, "Neighbours" brings the perfect blend of soap and sunshine to audiences in Australia beyond.


Paula Abdul has a guest appearance in this Fridays episode .  She is not the first known guest star on "Neighbours".  Throughout the years other celebrities such as  Russell Crowe, Lily Allen, Kylie Minogue, Natalie Imbruglia and Guy Pearce have visted Ramsay Street.  





Legendary Australian Soap Opera
NEIGHBOURS to Make American Debut

July 14, Exclusively on Hulu and Hulu Plus


Five New Episodes to rollout weekly on Hulu and Hulu Plus

Including a Special Guest Appearance by Paula Abdul



MELBOURNE and LOS ANGELES (July 7, 2014) – Life on suburban Ramsay Street may seem quiet on the surface, but on Monday, July 14, American audiences will learn all about the intrigue, heartbreak and scandal that fills the lives of its residents when the landmark Australian soap opera NEIGHBOURS makes its U.S. debut, exclusively on the free, ad-supported Hulu and Hulu Plus subscription service.
New episodes of NEIGHBOURS will debut daily, Monday through Friday, on Hulu and Hulu Plus - ensuring fans can stay up to date on the latest developments on Ramsay Street and won’t miss a minute of the drama in each 22-minute episode. The five weekly episodes will air four weeks after the Australian broadcast.
The U.S. premiere week of NEIGHBOURS will feature a story arc that includes a guest appearance by actress and singer Paula Abdul. In the Friday, July 18th episode, Abdul visits Ramsay Street to drop in on Doctor Karl Kennedy (Alan Fletcher), who admits to a crush on the former American Idol judge – much to the surprise of his wife, Susan (Jackie Woodburne).
The premiere episodes mark the beginning of a number of new story arcs on NEIGHBOURS, making it an ideal entry port for American soap-opera fans who are new to the lives and loves on Ramsay Street in the fictional Australian suburb of Erinsborough.
“NEIGHBOURS provides a delicious daily dose of Australian sunshine to soap-opera fans, and thanks to Hulu, we’re coming to the U.S. at a perfect entry point for first-time viewers,” said Jeff Siegel, VP Digital Distribution and Home Entertainment at FremantleMedia. “The drama, the excitement and the intrigue are all wonderfully accessible to anyone eager to get hooked on the compelling storylines of Australia’s longest-running scripted television series.”
Distributed globally by FremantleMedia International, NEIGHBOURS comes to the U.S. with enormous popularity and acclaim both in its native Australia and in the United Kingdom, where it has a long history of success.
NEIGHBOURS joins a growing number of international soap operas available on Hulu and Hulu Plus, making it the top destination for viewers who can’t get enough of the intense drama and unexpected plot twists that are their hallmarks.
Although NEIGHBOURS will be new to most American viewers, the series’ long history of being a “proving ground” for remarkable talent has led to celebrities who are part of their everyday lives.
Such globally recognized talents as Kylie Minogue, Guy Pearce (Memento, Iron Man 3), Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street), Liam Hemsworth (The Hunger Games), Alan Dale (Lost, Once Upon a Time), Jesse Spencer (House), Russell Crowe (Gladiator, Man of Steel) and Natalie Imbruglia all appeared on NEIGHBOURS early in their careers, adding to the remarkable history of the series and its more than 6,800 episodes.
NEIGHBOURS was first broadcast in Australia in 1985 and has since had over 6,900 episodes produced, making the series the longest running and most successful Australian drama of all time. The soap follows the residents of Ramsay Street in the fictional borough of Erinsborough, who deal with the challenges and issues that ordinary people face every day. Produced by FremantleMedia Australia, NEIGHBOURS continues to attract and fascinate a legion of devoted fans all over the world.
