On November 16th, Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment released something new and exciting for preschoolers. They introduced the new Disney Mickey Mote in a boxed set with the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Numbers Round-Up DVD. This kid-friendly remote is meant to use with Discovery Mode enhanced Disney preschool DVDs.Chances are you may already own some of these DVDs. The existing titles include Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Road Rally, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Mickey’s Adventures in Wonderland, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Mickey’s Choo Choo, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Minnie’s Bow-Tique, Handy Manny: Manny’s Motorcycle Adventure, Handy Manny: Manny’s Big Race, Little Einsteins: Fire Truck Blast Off, My Friends Tigger & Pooh: Super Duper Super Sleuths, and My Friends Tigger & Pooh: Bedtime With Pooh.
The Mickey Mote allows your child to answer simple questions to reinforce some basic skills, such as counting, colors, shapes, and listening comprehension. The remote has only four colorful buttons in distinct shapes. The blue square and green circle are used to answer multiple choice questions that only have two options. Each Discovery Mode enhanced DVD comes with 2 levels of play, so that your child can build his or her confidence. I cannot tell you how proud our twins are when they each are able to answer questions correctly.
Take a minute to watch the Mickey Mote in action . . .
The Mickey Mote is also available in a boxed set with the new DVD Handy Manny: Big Construction Job. Both DVD boxed sets retail for $29.99 and can be found on Amazon.com and Walmart.com .
