Giveaway - Jack, the Cuddly Dog (CLOSED)



I am giving away three free copies of an adorable new baby video called Jack, the Cuddly Dog in Jack Goes West! All you have to do is  become a fan of their Facebook fan page, my Facebook fan page and follow this blog by Wednesday! (see links and details below on where to find the fan page and the drawing of names).

Created for toddlers and babies three and under, the Jack, the Cuddly Dog video series is about an adorable puppy who lives in Central Park, NYC. I went to their website, http://www.jackthecuddlydog.com/, where the producers share some thoughts about how they went about creating "a new generation of baby videos" on their website: 

The Jack series is based on a process of research and study of children’s education and cognitive development. Our main goal at Hello Baby Productions has been to create a form of edutainment that is (to borrow Harvard professor Daniel Goleman’s terminology) "emotionally intelligent."  ...

The Jack, the Cuddly Dog video series is based on a process of research and study of children’s education and cognitive development. Our main goal at Hello Baby Productions has been to create a form of edutainment that is (to borrow Harvard professor Daniel Goleman’s terminology) "emotionally intelligent."

• Our criteria for emotional intelligence has been the following:
• Creating a warm, nurturing character that young children can relate to and feel comforted by in the same way that they find comfort in a teddy bear or special blanket.
• Creating a warm feeling in the viewer by using quality animation originating from hand drawings rather than computer-generated images.
• Stimulating the auditory senses and cognitive benefits of rhythm and harmony in music with genuine acoustic instruments.
• We don’t devote large sections of screen time to showing plastic toys or stock footage - instead, we show animals one can see in the yard next door, in a park, or on a farm. We focus on beautiful and meditative shots of nature combined with images of other babies, colors, and shapes, animals, (and of course and lots of dogs :-) 

Babies are amazing and precious! We want to give them the very best we can offer. We want to help them delight in the world, learn and laugh with us and grow to be happy, healthy and wise human beings. We hope you enjoy Jack, the Cuddly Dog!
