Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales

SCORE: 81

I am very thankful Family Friendly Gaming was given a retail version of Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales on DVD. It takes one hundred and twelve minutes to watch Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales from start to finish. There is a bonus episode on the Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales DVD disc as well. There will be spoilers in this review. In that bonus episode the Bubble Guppies meet up with Baby Shark and have a crossover special. The Bubble Guppies turn into sharks themselves in that crossover episode. They turn back at the end of the episode.

The episodes on the Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales DVD disc are Bubble Puppy's Fin-tastic Fairy Tale, The Kingdom of Clean, A Furry Tale, and Alison in Wonderland. The special feature bonus episode on the Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales DVD disc is The Jaw-some Sharkventure. As you can probably guess the theme of this DVD is fairy tales. We run across interesting variations of the fairy tales in Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales. For example the big bad wolf is sitting in the chair while grandma is making cookies. The bears are not mad at Goldilocks.

In Bubble Puppy's Fin-tastic Fairy Tale we learn about a witch that turns their puppy into a frog. They go on an adventure to turn him back. The witch has a plan in Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales to turn everyone into frogs. Why? I really am not certain. She gets turned into a frog in the end, and is as happy as a clam about it. There are other witches that are causing trouble in Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales as well. In A Furry Tale a witch keeps trying to get the kids to do something irresponsible with their pets. The kids make sure to take good care of the pets instead.

There are plenty of lessons kids can learn from Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales. Some examples are animals, body parts, order, numbers, mail, cleaning and more. Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales has something called Friendship Day in it. The concept was all new to me. I looked it up and found there is an actual Friendship Day that some people celebrate. I like how Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales teaches kids the importance of the mail. There is a wishing well that "supposedly" gave the kids what they were asking for.

Some of the same songs are used over and over again in multiple episodes in Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales. Things like going outside when they are in school. I thought the episode about being clean was pretty cool. It reminds me of that old phrase: "cleanliness is next to Godliness." Bubble Guppies Fin-Tastic Fairy Tales does not give that quote exactly but the lessons from the Holy Bible are present in The Kingdom of Clean. That is pretty cool to see.
