Friday Night Movies (Win It! Edition)
Easter Bunny who? We've got our own basket of goodies, and it's filled with free DVDs for our readers! To help you get in the mood for this super early holiday (it's next weekend, people!), we're giving away 10 copies of It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown. If you want to add this great DVD in with all those dyed eggs and marshmallow chicks already stuffed into your child's basket, post a comment below by 9 a.m. EST on March 19th. We'll choose the 10 winners in a random drawing and list them in the next Friday Night Movies column. Goody Luck!
This Week's DVD Goodies:
Alvin and the Chipmunks Scare-Riffic Double Feature
Animal Planet: Most Extreme Season 1
Baby's First Sounds: Discoveries for Little Ears
Chrysanthemum & More Fun With Learning

This Week's Big-Screen Goody:
Don't expect any "That's what she said!" jokes from Steve Carell this month. The comedian and father of two is calling in sick from The Office to moonlight on Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who (rated G). Here's a portion of our recent Q&A:
Were your children psyched that you did a kid-friendly movie?
Very! The timing is perfect–John [age 3] is just getting into Dr. Seuss now, and his older sister, Elisabeth, loves going to the movies, especially animated ones. I'm excited too: It's amazing to hear your voice coming out of a cartoon that also kind of looks like you. It's a Who version of me. Bizarre!
Check out the rest of the interview in the March issue of Parents.

UPDATE: This contest is now closed!
