The Penguins of Madagascar: Happy King Julien Day & New to the Zoo Review

Starring the madcap pack of Penguins and everyone’s favorite lemur King Julien from DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc’s (Nasdaq: DWA) phenomenally successful MADAGASCAR franchise, each DVD includes eight outrageous episodes from Nickelodeon’s Emmy and Annie Award-winning* series.

Each of these DVD's are 88 minutes long and have a suggested retail price of under $14.00 U.S. each.   We really enjoyed watching these movies as a family (and my husband and I actually weren't bored).  I love how these are split up into episodes.  It makes it easier for younger kids to sit through and it is also great if you don't want your children watching too much TV or need something short before bed.

These are perfect for family night or would make a nice surprise for your kids!!  You know you can't resist the penguins ;o)  Purchase yours now!!
