Mark It On Your Calendar! Shaun The Sheep Movie Released August 5th!

Mark it on your calendars, save it in your phones!  I've got a great, new Summer family movie for you to check out! The genius creators of Chicken Run and Wallace and Gromit have brought us another hilarious family-friendly movie!  Shaun The Sheep is being released in the U.S. in a theater near ‘ewe' (bahaha! I crack myself up!) on August 5th, 2015!  Shaun The Sheep has already opened in the UK and is so beloved by critics AND fans!  This fun, light-hearted family movie is one that you definitely won't want to miss.  I can't wait to take my kids to see it!

So here is what this movie is about: Shaun is a sheep that decides to take a day off to have a little fun BUT he gets into a little more than he was looking for.  A run-in with a Farmer, a caravan and a very steep hill leads them all to the Big City. It ends up being the job of Shaun and the flock to get everyone safely home!  Be sure to gather the whole family around and click HERE to watch the official trailer.  And if you need just a little more convincing, check out the great reviews found on Rotten Tomatoes!  You may be surprised by the incredible reviews.  I know I was!

Now, I want to introduce you a special little character in the movie!  Timmy is the baby of the family so he gets away with just about everything.  Tiny and adorable, he leaves a trail of mischief everywhere he goes!  Luckily, his older cousin, Shaun The Sheep, is there to clean up after him!  Find out more about Timmy and their sweet little family bond in THIS video, and make sure you head to a theater near you on August 5th to meet the rest of their funny farm friends!

This would be a great last-minute Summer outing with the kiddos before school starts!  And to make it more fun you could encourage the kids to click HERE to print out coloring pictures or play games!  They could also draw a picture of Shaun The Sheep, create their own videos or come up with a fun, new craft!
