Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse Review

I think this is a darling video but I bought it for my daughter to enjoy, not for me. She loves the princesses so when I saw them in it (on the cover) I thought she would love it! She watches the new Mickey Mouse Club House cartoon on Disney and likes that. This video however, has all the old videos and characters. She is 2.5 and doesn't know Huey, Duey or Louie or Chip and Dale (and others). I don't think those characters are on new videos. Since it was all the old stuff (which I love) she didn't seem as into it.

Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse Specifications

A cartoon club hosted by Mickey Mouse, the House of Mouse is where all the big Disney movie stars come to relax and see a show that offers a mix of classic cartoons and live entertainment, like the Quackstreet Boys band featuring Huey, Dewey, and Louie. On Christmas Eve, the show plays to a full house of 35 animated Disney guests, including Belle and the Beast, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, the Three Little Pigs, Donald Duck, and a host of other famous characters. But when the show concludes, the House of Mouse has been snowed in, and no one can get home to celebrate the holiday. Mickey and the gang make their own Christmas celebration, beginning the festivities by showing a winter classic, "Donald on Ice." While Huey, Dewey, and Louie create a snowman for the snowman contest, Donald heads out for a day of ice skating that doesn't turn out quite like he'd planned. Next, Professor Ludwig Von Drake attempts to explain how Santa flies all over the world in one night, then some of the guests reveal what they're most thankful for, and then Minnie and Mickey star in their very own version of "The Nutcracker." All the guests except Donald seem to be getting into the holiday spirit, so Mickey tries to brighten Donald's glum mood by screening one of his favorite Christmas stories, "Mickey's Christmas Carol." When Donald sees himself as Scrooge (literally), he begins to realize how lucky he is and gains a new appreciation for his good friends. The evening at the House of Mouse ends with a rousing rendition of the new song "The Best Christmas of All," which celebrates true friends, family, and happy memories and is performed by all the Disney characters in the house. While Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed In at the House of Mouse isn't all new programming, it's a nice compilation of holiday favorites that is held together with a new story line and that spotlights a host of favorite Disney characters. Bonus features include the first episode of House of Mouse, in which Pete buys the House of Mouse building with the intention of closing down the club but is outsmarted by Mickey and the "show must go on" clause in the real estate contract. Within that episode are three cartoon shorts: "Pluto Gets the Paper," "Donald's Dynamite," and "Hickory Dickory Mickey." Other bonus features include a sound effects tour, in which a group of children learn about and experiment with the many sound props used in past Disney productions, and sing-along songs "Deck the Halls" and "Sleigh Ride."

Nice Christmas shorts - Momof2 -
I like this DVD because it has alot of the classic Disney Christmas shorts in it, and some new ones also. If you have other Disney Christmas DVD's you may want to check the titles of the short cartoons compared with this one. I have noticed that there are some on here that have already been put out on DVDs before so it may not be worth your money to buy this one. It's worth getting for Mickey's Christmas Carol alone though if you don't already have that one.

Snowed in At the House of Mouse - Cayla A. Slater - Wichita, KS
My child loves seeing the variety of characters in the movie. She sees Beauty and the Beast, Jafar, Mickey, Donald Duck, etc.

excellent! - Debbie Foggin - canada
Excellent movie. My kindergarden child just loves it and has watched it many times since getting it for xmas. Very very good and he doesn't make a "peep" when watching it as he is very immersed into it.

Great! - online shopper LM - NJ
I like the Pluto and Chip & Dale one the best. My 2 year old loves watching this DVD!
