Well it’s Groundhog Day, so Happy Groundhog Day to you all.
In case you missed the news, Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow and declared six more weeks of winter. I am not too thrilled with today’s results. I am definitely ready for sunshine.
Do you do anything special on this day that is devoted to the rodents of the world?
I found some fun Groundhog Day links for you to share with your children.
- A fun shadow match game
- Groundhog Day cupcake recipe
- Pop Up Groundhog Craft
- Official site for Punxsutawney Phil
Your children can also celebrate with the rodents they have come to know and love. It’s the perfect day for watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse or Pixar’s Ratatouille. There is also the lovely Chipmunk trio Alvin & The Chipmunks, who are sure to get everyone dancing.
In celebration of rodents everywhere, we have a fun Groundhog Day giveaway just for you – Alvin & The Chipmunks: The Squeakquel video game for Wii and Nintendo DS.
“Alvin and The Chipmunks: The Squeakquel lets you play as Alvin and The Chipmunks or their girl-group counterparts, The Chipettes, in a variety of pulse-pounding concert locations that will challenge your rhythmic skills to the limit. Feature in a dramatic finale performance to win the hearts and minds of fans at Hollywood’s Super Duper Dome.
- Features hits songs from today and from the Alvin and The Chipmunks library. Each song’s difficulty is based on such things as tempo and complexity.
- Jet across the world and rock the house in 1 of 25 concert locations in cities like New York, London and Sydney.
- 2 global modes of difficulty, Normal and Expert, are available for replay and can be changed anytime during your game.
- Multiplayer Party mode lets you play as your favorite Chipmunk or Chipette and compete with up to 2 friends Play your favorite unlocked songs while watching the music videos in Jukebox Mode.”
My daughter loves Alvin and The Chipmunks: The Squeakquel because of its introduction of Brittany, Jeannette, and Eleanor, The Chipettes. I knew she would be thrilled to have the chance to review this game for the Wii.
I was right, she has been loving it. I have even been having fun watching her play the game, because she gets really into it. It is quite entertaining. It almost reminds me of Dance Dance Revolution. She has to get into the rhythm and move her arms to the pattern of arrows on the screen. It can get a bit challenging, which is nice. I like it when games help to teach my kids that practice makes perfect. My boys had fun right along with her as they danced around the living room to the game’s soundtrack.
We want to share the fun with you. In celebration of Groundhog Day, We have two copies of Alvin and The Chipmunks: The Squeakquel video game to give away. One is for the Wii, retail value $39.99, and one is for the Nintendo DS, retail value $29.99. Please let us know in the comments section which game you would like.
