Doc McStuffins Time for Your Checkup DVD Review and Giveaway

I received a copy of this DVD to review.

We’re huge Doc McStuffins fans in this house.  Bunny and Bubba watch it almost every day and they loving pretending to have their own toy clinic.  You haven’t heard cute until you’ve heard Bubba declare there’s a “toy emergency”.

I enjoy Doc McStuffins because it has taught my kids that the doctor is not someone to fear.  Bunny has major White Coat Syndrome.  She would start panicking about check-ups as soon as she heard me make an appointment.  She still gets pretty nervous, but I can start singing the “Time for Your Checkup” song and she starts relaxing.  She knows what to expect during a checkup and knows she’ll feel better (so much better) at the end of her visit.

We have plenty of Doc episodes stored on our DVR, but I was really excited to have a DVD with some of our favorite episodes included.  We have lots of road trips coming up this summer and having Doc in the car will definitely make things much more enjoyable for all of us!  The “Time for Your Checkup”  DVD is available in stores now!

doc mc stuffins dvd

The “Time for Your Checkup” DVD includes 5 full-length episodes for 120 minutes of pure fun.  The DVD includes these episodes:

1 – Gulpy, Gulpy Gators! / One Note Wonder
2 – Tea Party Tantrum / Blast Off!
3 – Arcade Escapade / Starry, Starry Night
4 – Bronto Boo-Boos / Brontosaurus Breath
5 – Doctoring The Doc / Hot Pursuit

“Starry, Starry Night” is one of our favorites.  Doc comes to the rescue when her brother’s telescope, Aurora, can’t see the stars.  It takes the whole team of Doc and her stuffed animal friends to solve the mystery and fix Aurora before the big meteor shower begins.

Doc has an entire crew of awesome stuffed animals to help her out in the clinic.  Hallie the hippo is Doc’s number one nurse and keeper of the Big Book of Boo Boos.  Our family favorite is Lambie.  She’s the cuddler of the group and Bunny loves that she’s a ballerina lamb.  Chilly is a slight hypochondriac and Stuffy is a brave, but clumsy dragon.  Each episode features a new toy in need of the Doc’s services and they’re all completely adorable and their personalities match the toy type perfectly.  Sir Kirby the brave knight is my favorite of the rotating characters.

Who is your favorite Doc McStuffins character?  Leave me a comment with your favorite character and you’ll be entered to win your very own copy of the “Time for Your Check Up” DVD!  US and Canada only.  Ends June 4th.

Before we get into how to make my amazing mani/pedi scrub, I should probably let you know why I’m even bothering to do a mani/pedi at home, rather than spend an hour at the nail salon without my children or work. I hate pedicures.  There. I said it.  I also hate seeing photos of your [...]
