My husband usually brings a special gift home for each of our kids when he returns from an out-of-town business trip.  This week the gift was the DVD for Disney’s new Tinkerbell movie, Secret of the Wings.  My kids have watched the movie at least five times since Friday night—it’s been running off and on all weekend.   In the movie, Tinkerbell is up to her old shenanigans.  She enters the Winter Woods and her wings start to sparkle.  In her quest to find out what the sparkly wings mean, she finds Periwinkle and discovers that they are twin sisters.  It is really a creative and fun story.  To go along with the new movie, JAKKS Pacific has released a new product line of toys that make the magic come home.

The toys from JAKKS Pacific are a fun way to help your child interact with the movie.  My kids enjoyed playing with the light-up fairy wings and the launching Periwinkle.  She actually flies up into the air!   I liked the fact that the wings on this Tinkerbell doll can detach and attach with velcro.  It makes it easy for small hands to independently play with the doll.   Likewise, the string on the flying Periwinkle is easy to pull.  It didn’t get caught and snagged when my kids pulled it, like some toys like this can do sometimes.   My kids enjoyed playing with these and it helped the thrill of the new movie to be real for them.
