I have always kept a tight reign on media in my house. As a former schoolteacher, I had witnessed all to often the rude and disrespectful behavior and thought patterns in kids who had a steady diet of certain television shows. Now that my kids are 16 and 18 I am proud to say that we were able to ignore pop culture and got along just fine without The Simpsons, Rugrats, Spongebob Squarepants or any of their other obnoxious cohorts. I can honestly say that my kids were too old when Dora, Handy Manny and Caillou came out because I have seen some of those little kids cartoons and they were really annoying too.

Is there a cartoon character you don’t like or don’t allow your kids to watch? Leave me a comment and let’s discuss it!

Volume 3 Synopsis: Set sail for the high seas of hilarity when Mickey, Goofy and Donald go a-whaling and wind up going overboard – literally! Bark with laughter as Pluto is dogged by a pesky gopher who’s making mincemeat of Minnie’s garden. Then, have a ball with Goofy as he hits the links and – BLAM! – his “relaxing” game of golf goes outrageously awry.

Fully restored and remastered, these amazing cartoons also feature a new “Re-MICKS” – a mash-up music video of crazy cartoon clips remixed to the hit song, “I Gotta Feeling” from the Black Eyed Peas. It’s a novel approach to uproarious classic comedy that’ll make you laugh out loud. Bursting at the seams with surprises, Have a Laugh – Volume 3 will tickle your funny bone till it hurts!

Volume 4 Synopsis: Have an outrageously g’day with Mickey and Pluto when their adventure Down Under goes way over the top, thanks to a wayward boomerang and a humongous ostrich. Kick up your heels with Donald as his fireside hula dance “heats up” hilariously. Then, ride a tide of laughs with Goofy as he tries to catch a wave and – BLAM! – gets clobbered by his surfboard.

Fully restored and re-mastered, these incredible cartoons also feature a new “Re-MICKS” – a mash-up music video of crazy cartoon clips remixed to the hit song “Play My Music” from Camp Rock.
