This adventure finds the Cat in the Hat, Nick and Sally on a journey around the world to help a lost reindeer find his way home to Freeze-your-knees Snowland in time for Christmas. On the way, the Thingamajigger breaks down and they depend on a variety of animals - from African bush elephants to bottlenose dolphins to red crabs - and their remarkable abilities to help them make an amazing journey home.

We are huge Cat in The Hat fans so everyone was pretty keen to get this in the DVD player ASAP!! It has been played quite a bit over the past week so obviously has hit the spot with its intended audience in our house. At 54 minutes this "Cat in The Hat" movie isn't the longest but it is a perfect length for my under sixs attention spans and just enough time to get dinner cooked and on the table so perfect for busy mums at Christmas!
I really liked the theme of this movie which was all about the importance of family and friends being together at Christmas but also about sticking together and helping each other out. That combined with the fantastic Cat in the Hat animation and the usual Cat in the Hat high jinx makes for a real feel good movie that we all were able to enjoy. Even Miss One was transfixed to this. It was nice to havea DVD that is totally appropriate for the kids to watch knowing they will hopefully pick up on the underlying good values in the plot line. Miss Four and Miss Six liked the song when they were taking Ralph the reindeer home. She liked the story and how they stuck together as a team and how the Cat in The Hat had the miniature Thingamajigger so the little mouse could get home.
Overall I think this is a brilliant Christmas DVD for the little ones with pure Cat in the Hat mischief! Definitely a 10/10 from our house.
