Lionsgate Home Entertainment July Children’s Releases Giveaway

    Lionsgate puts out some really cute educational children’s programs. Two of them are Clifford the Big Red Dog and LeapFrog, a family favorite. My kids love watching LeapFrog and I love watching them learn from watching it. Miles learned to recognize most of his letters that way. This July, Lionsgate released two new titles under these family friendly programs.

Clifford the Big Red Dog: Dog Days of Summer

LeapFrog: Sing and Learn With Us!

    imageEnjoy the summer breeze and warm sunshine with beloved Scholastic character, Clifford the Big Red Dog™, as Lionsgate Home Entertainment releases Clifford the Big Red Dog: Dog Days of Summer this July 19th 2011. Arriving just in time for summer, this all-new Clifford adventure includes five fun-filled episodes that have never been released to DVD, but are sure to become another classic collection.

This DVD will focus on the Be Truthful theme of the campaign. In addition, the DVD contains the kid-friendly direct-play feature, allowing children to insert the DVD and watch without help from an adult.  Clifford the Big Red Dog: Dog Days of Summer, which also includes six bonus Speckle Stories, will be available July 19, 2011, for the suggested retail price of $14.98.
