Both of my kids adore Handy Manny! I, as a parent, love watching Handy Manny with my kids. It is a show that they have fun with and they are learning with it as well.
Launched in 2006, Disney’s Emmy-nominated animated series “Handy Manny” shares the adventures of Manny, a bilingual handyman, and his talking tools. Geared toward preschoolers, the show helps kids learn important lessons like problem solving and working together while introducing them to Latin culture and common Spanish words and phrases.
I am very excited to let you know that Handy Manny Big Race premiere on Saturday night, March 20th. This is an adorable and fun loving film that you and your family would love to watch together this weekend!
About Handy Manny Big Race:
Share the thrill of a lifetime when Manny puts the pedal to the metal in the Wood Valley 500 car race! But first, can Manny, the Tools and their friend Elliot turn a broken-down jalopy into the coolest racecar ever? It will take teamwork, determination and some awesome driving skills to cross the finish line first. Tricked-out with music, excitement and surprises, Big Race! is high-octane fun for the whole family!
We had a great time watching this 45 minute DVD – over and over… and over! This is one movie that I don’t mind my kids requesting to watch again. Tucker loves race cars. Both kids love Handy Manny and the characters. The music is a blast, the story is tons of fun and I have to say that my favorite part of any Handy Manny episode or movie is the tool characters. Who can deny them?!
