5.0 out of 5 stars
Good for SS fans, September 9, 2005
This review is from: Strawberry Shortcake - Moonlight Mysteries (DVD)
This gets 5 stars from my 3 year old who loved it. This was a fun spooky SS movie. I prefer it to Adventures on Ice Cream Island with the Purple Pie Man villian (though that too is worth owning for us since my daughter loves it also, especially when Honey Pie escapes the bad guy). Anyway, the spooks in this new movie are fun, and my daughter got many giggles when the gang would discover that the cause of their fears weren't scary at all. My daughter does get scared easy and doesn't watch many movies, so I admit at one point when the suspense over who lived in the shabby blueberry house was getting to her, I cheated and told her, and she had a big giggle when Blueberry Muffin came out. The suspense was much like the Beach Party SS movie when there was a dark figure that turned out to be another little girl the gang ended up fast friends with.
The songs were spooky fun, but just to let you know, the montages had lots of ghosts and whatnot flying around, but in fun. This is a 'what goes bump in the night' cute little movie that little fans of the other Strawberry Shortcake movies will love.

Fun music and storyline!, February 26, 2006
This review is from: Strawberry Shortcake - Moonlight Mysteries (DVD)
We have watched several SS videos and this is at the top of the list of favorites. The music is catchy and sung well, like all SS music. The story is about being afraid of the dark and how imaginations can make things look scary even though they're not. Ginger Snap in particular has a fear of the dark and doesn't want to go on the campout with the others. She was able to work through her fears and have a good time. They parallel that fear with the fear of making new friends and how you need to be brave because it's worth it to meet someone new. Of course this theme goes over most preschooler's heads but that is usually what all SS videos emphasize: friendship.
Kids enjoy the campout atmosphere and the spooky things that appear out of the woods. The images in the show aren't really scary for young kids, just mysterious enough to draw them in. This is a fun 45 minute movie!

Very Cute Spooky Video!, August 30, 2005
This review is from: Strawberry Shortcake - Moonlight Mysteries (DVD)
This is a wonderful video! The first part of the story shows how Ginger overcomes her fear of the dark, and the second part of the story shows us how the kids first met Blueberry Muffin. The video is not scary in any way, but has a great child-like spookiness that young kids will love. I really love this video and think it is one of the best.
