Review: A Valentine for You

I’ve loved anything Winnie the Pooh for the longest time. My husband, at the time my boyfriend, would buy me those adorable stuffed animal mini Winnie the Pooh’s. I’d always get one for each holiday/season. And now that I have a daughter, I can pass the toys and the joy that Winnie the Pooh and his friends from the Hundred Acre Woods to her.

We were lucky enough to get the opportunity to be one of the firsts to review the newest Winnie the Pooh DVD titled, “A Valentine For You.” It is a charming three episode feature that truly is a sweet treat for the entire family. Roo loved the features and the Valentine’s Day cards that come enclosed in the Special Edition.



A Valentine for You is a classic in the Disney vault and it follows Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore, Piglet, Rabbit and Gopher on more crazy adventures as they hunt down the love bug, learn lessons in helping friends and mysterious admirers. With the Special Edition, you’ll get two classic episodes of Winnie the Pooh plus a New to DVD episode titled “My Hero.”

From the press release: “In Un-Valentines Day, it's that warm and wonderful time when Pooh and his pals like to show how much they care. But Rabbit wants to cancel Valentine's Day because last year, he was up to his ears in the flood of cards that littered the Hundred Acre Wood. Reluctantly, everyone agrees – until someone anonymously sends Pooh a pot of honey. Suddenly, the Valentine rush is again out of control, much to the delight of all -- including Rabbit. In A Valentine for You, Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, and Rabbit see Christopher Robin making a valentine for a girl and find he's been bitten by a "Smitten" and is lovesick. Worried that he'll no longer have time for them, and hoping a second bite from the love bug will cure him, they set out on a wild adventure to capture the Smitten. My Hero is a new-to-DVD adventure that shows the lesson of two friends truly helping each other. When Piglet saves Tigger’s life, Tigger decides to repay the favor by being Piglet’s servant. But Tigger’s new job causes Piglet more harm than good. When Tigger saves Piglet’s life, his obligation to be the servant is erased and all is back to normal.”

Winnie the Pooh’s A Valentine For You will be released on January 5th from Walt Disney Home Entertainment and comes with a special Valentine’s Day game titled, “Catch the Love Bug Game” and themed Valentine’s Day cards to share with loved ones.
