Check Out How @Nickelodeon DVDs is Helping Me Avoid Cries of "I'm Bored" During our Winter Break

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post written on behalf of Nickelodeon DVDs. I received the DVDs highlighted above in exchange for this post. No monetary compensation was received. The views expressed below are mine. Many thanks to Nickelodeon DVD and the PR firm for this opportunity.

The kids will be out of school for Winter break soon and I am already trying to find ways to ward off the inevitable cries of "I'm bored". I know it's coming.  I can't avoid it. 

It may Day 2, it may be Day 8, it could even be the day before they return to school but  sometime within the next two weeks one of my kids is going to utter those dreaded words.

I'm prepared though. The pantry is stocked with hot chocolate and plenty of snacks.  Pencils are sharpened.  Crayon box is filled with crayons and markers.  Printer is full of paper.  Weekly trips to library planned.  I'm ready!  I'm ready!  *in my SpongeBob voice*  Plus, the latest Nickelodeon's Winter DVD releases will keep the kids entertained and give me a much needed Winter break.

Nickelodeon DVD has something for everyone from the preschooler to the teens and tweens. 

For the little ones, we have Nickelodeon Favorites: A Very Nick Jr. Christmas and PAW Patrol: Pups Save Christmas.

6 episodes featuring •Blaze and the Monster Machines •Shimmer and Shine •Dora and Friends •Bubble Guppies and •Wallykazam!


6 fun episodes crammed into an hour of fun for the little ones with Ryder, Chase and Everest.

The older kids will enjoy a little action courtesy of TMNT - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in Mutant Ninja Turtles: Earth's Last Stand.  7 episodes of non-stop turtle power PLUS a free Raphael zipper pull AKA stocking stuffer for one of the kids.

 
 
I can't wait to surprise the kids with The Legend of Korra: The Complete Series.  ALL 52 episodes.  Woohoo!!! That's over 20 hours of air, earth, water and firebending fun!

No bored kids here.  We are ready.  Sled, board games, books and our favorite Nickelodeon DVDs.  Winter break boredom SOLVED!

What are some ways you keep the kids busy during Winter vacation?

I'm impressed with how prepared you are for winter break! I love that you have a variety of fun activities planned for your little ones. I don't think your kids will be bored at all.

Sounds like you have your winter break all planned and covered. I was never that organized with the kids. Have fun and sure everyone will enjoy.

These look like some fun DVDs for kids! I should probably prepare more for the winter break, but my kids are older, so if they say they're bored I remind them that they're old enough to entertain themselves.

Oh these are such great choices for the indoor downtime. It's nice to have a few movies and series ready for the kids.

I'm a 90s kid so I grew up on Nickelodeon! They really did have some of the best cartoons around. These look like awesome DVDs for kids to watch during winter break.

I have so many Nickelodeon DVD's from my review days with them. The kids have a huge stock that I refuse to get rid of because they are cool to pull out and watch with them on a boring day!
We're pretty informal over the Christmas break. My nephew would enjoy watching Paw Patrol, he loves that show.
Sue Reddel said…
That's quite an interesting mix of movies. Movies are a great and easy way of keeping everyone entertained.
Great mix of DVDs to watch to keep them from being bored. Being inside and feeling bored can be hard to avoid sometimes, this seems like a great way to keep busy.

Legend of Korra is such a great show for older kids. And little kids always love Paw Patrol.

Now this is my kind of winter break, all snuggled up under a blanket watching my favorite shows and movies! I love it!

It's so funny that kids can be bored right after getting all those presents, but its true! Its happened to my family too and I'm sure I'll hear those words as well and I'll want to give them a good reality check!
We are day two into our break and I’ve already heard I’m bored 150 times. I can’t wait for Christmas for my kids to open gifts and have new things to occupy them for a bit. Including some Nickelodeon dvds! - jeanine

This is an awesome DVD collection! It does offer quality entertainment for every age group. Now I won't have any problems keeping my nephews and nieces entertained when they come over for a visit!

Life is a Beach Giveaway Hop

Spring is in full swing.  The birds are singin'.  The pollen is falling and temps are FINALLY warming up.  So what better time time to start planning our Summer getaways. This year - as always - we are beach bound.  It's one of our fave places to visit given we only get to the beach once or twice a year.   Last year's visit to Cozumel was one for the record books. We stopped by this little restaurant and dined on grilled shrimp in a cabana right on the beach.   'Ohana also has a line of tequilas in flavors I had never seen before.  Tropical flavors such as coconut, mango and pina colada.  Hubby and I tried the 'Ohana peanut butter tequila.  The owner said folks either love it or hate it... we LOVED it!!! As I was sipping all I could think of was how good this peanut butter tequila would taste as a baste on my tequila wings.  It would be like a tequila satay wings type dish. * * * G I V E A W A Y * * * One lucky Three ...
