Awesome Adventures: Races, Chases & Fun DVD {Review & Giveaway}

Whenever my family is preparing for a long car ride, one of the first things that we reach for are the DVDs. My daughters are able to entertain themselves (looking out the window, munching on snacks, talking about the trucks, exclaiming at the cows, etc) to an extent, but when the boredom starts to kick in, turning on a movie is always a surefire way to keep the peace.

However, the problem then is usually deciding which one. What if one child wants to watch Bob the Builder while the other wants to see Thomas & Friends? What if we just happened to forget to bring along Fireman Sam when that is the consensus and nothing else will do?

Thankfully, Lionsgate and HIT Entertainment have solved any of those problems with their brand new collection of six episodes of various favorite characters in Awesome Adventures: Races, Chases & Fun.


On your mark... get set... go for all new fast and furious entertainment in Awesome Adventures: Races, Chases & Fun. Racing onto DVD, Digital Download and On Demand earlier this month, this collection of action-packed, rip-roaring adventures features a trio of preschool favorites: Thomas & Friends, Fireman Sam and Bob the Builder.

What a great way to bring these great pals together in one place to teach lessons about friendship, responsibility, cooperation, loyalty, sharing, teamwork and more! Aimed at children ages 2 - 5, this DVD has a feature run time of 62 minutes, which has proven to be just the right amount of time to keep short attention spans interested and ready for more.

Bob the Builder

Racing engines, runaway go-carts and monster chases lead to thrills, spills and rescues in these six tales. Storylines include Thomas and Hiro discovering there's no need for speed when trying to be a Really Useful engine; Fireman Sam being rescue-ready when Norman and James forget to put safety first; and Bob the Builder's Machine Team keeping their eyes open to big adventure and big fun, while putting the TEAM in teamwork and getting the job done.

It's not hard to see that young fans will be prepared to sit back and cheer along with their favorite, fast friends in this collection of exciting adventures.

Episodes include:
  • Thomas & Friends — Play Time
  • Thomas & Friends — Hiro Helps Out
  • Fireman Sam — Floating Cart
  • Fireman Sam — When Fools Rush In
  • Bob the Builder — Roley's Rovers
  • Bob the Builder — Lofty and the Monster
Thomas & Friends

If you have a child who is a fan of any or all of these characters or if you're looking for a gift that is sure to please, Awesome Adventures: Races, Chases & Fun is a mixture of all things action adventure and has the assortment of friends, lessons, and laughter to make everyone happy. We love being able to move from one episode to the next to keep things entertaining and interesting!

Available now and retailing for $14.98 (or on Amazon for $11.93 and free shipping), this DVD will allow you to bring home some variety to your young train, firefighter and building enthusiast today!

And, thanks to the generosity of Lionsgate and HIT Entertainment, one person will be able to introduce these six episodes of viewing fun to the child in their life as well, because...
