STAR TREK PRODIGY GIVEAWAY

Cartoons aren't just for little kids! While my teenage twins are at an age where they don't want to hang out with their good ole dad very much these days; they still look forward to huddling together around our living room television as a family to binge watch together episodes of the Nickelodeon produced Star Trek animated series Prodigy on Netflix. It is a fun, energetic show filled with stories aimed to be attractive tween and teen viewers that is filled with easter eggs and action scenes to also make it entertaining to old school Trekkies like me. We've had some great family time taking in the spacefaring sci-fi adventures of Star Trek: Prodigy together.

In Star Trek: Prodigy the year is 2383, five years after the USS Voyager has returned to Earth after being thought for lost in deep space. A motley group of young aliens imprisoned at a mining colony on a remote planet find an abandoned Starfleet ship with ties to the Voyager's crew. Taking control of the ship, they must learn to work together to boldly go in an uncharted direction for them ... freedom.

TRANSFORMERS ONE COMES TO HOME VIDEO

Thank you to Paramount Pictures Home Entertainment for providing ageekdaddy.com with a FREE digital code to view TRANSFORMERS ONE

The animated movie TRANSFORMERS ONE shows that the history of archnemesis Optimus Prime and Megatron is more than meets the eye. These robots have been battling each other through comic books, movies, tv shows and the pretend play of kids ever since Hasbro introduced them as toys in 1984. Learn the origin stories of the Autobots and Decepticons in this first-ever fully CG-animated Transformers movie that is now available to add to your home entertainment video library via Digital and will be released December 17 on physical media [4K Ultra HD, Blu-Ray and DVD]. TRANSFORMERS ONE is rated PG by the Motion Picture Association of America [MPAA] for sci-fi violence and animated action.

As an 80s kid, I grew up playing with Hasbro's Transformer toys and watching the cartoons based upon them that aired on Saturday mornings. My kids have grown up loving Michael Bay's blockbuster Hollywood productions and being thrilled by the Universal Studios amusement park ride that immerses people in a battle between the Autobots and Decepticons. So, we all appreciated having a family movie night watching a Transformers flick. 

While TRANSFORMERS ONE is an animated movie, it still has a star-studded cast featuring a lot of familiar voices. The movie features the voices of Chris Hemsworth, Brian Tyree Henry, Scarlett Johansson, Keegan-Michael Key, Steve Buscemi, Laurence Fishburne and Jon Hamm. Can you pick out who is who while watching the movie?

Directed by Josh Cooley, TRANSFORMERS ONE is the untold origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron, better known as sworn enemies, but once were friends bonded like brothers who changed the fate of Cybertron forever. Originally humble work bots that can't transform, the two evolve to become some of the most powerful Transformers ever. But how do they become such hated adversaries? You'll have to watch the movie to find out!

What I can say is that my family had an entertaining evening watching the movie. Therefore, TRANSFORMERS ONE earns a Geek Daddy nod of approval. Whether a long-time fan or new to this franchise, TRANSFORMERS ONE rolls out a fun science fiction adventure that makes an exciting starting point for future stories featuring these robotic heroes and villains. Being that whether you are 50 or 5 years old TRANSFORMERS ONE has an all ages appeal making it attractive to different generations and therefore a great selection to have everyone in the family geeked about watching it for a movie night.

SONGS TO HOWL & SING

Indie folk band LITTLE COYOTES have just released their first album which is available now digitally on all major music platforms. SONGS TO HOWL & SING is full of tunes to inspire children to have a lifetime of love for the outdoors and to embrace having family adventures in wild places. Fronted by vocalist Becca Mohler and produced by her Grammy-nominated husband Billy, LITTLE COYOTES' SONGS TO HOWL & SING is a blend of nostalgic folk melodies reminiscent of Belle and Sebastian, Donovan, and Simon and Garfunkel providing an evocative listening experience. Each song is crafted with a nod to folk artists of the ‘60s and ‘70s.

Becca and Billy Mohler own Cal Heights Music in Long Beach, California, a music school known for fostering creativity and musicality in students of all ages. Their popular caregiver-and-me class for children ages 0 - 4, which encourages a love for music and the outdoors from an early age, was an important inspiration for SONGS TO HOWL & SING. Their teaching roots provide a personal and authentic touch to the tunes performed in this album.

“Little Adventure” teaches colors by identifying natural elements like green moss and orange poppies, while “National Parks” takes families on a musical road trip through the wonders of America’s natural landscapes. The geometric “Shapes Are Everywhere” has an upbeat, ‘60s, “Mrs. Robinson” feel, while “Little Campfire” is all about cooperation and teamwork.

“Songs to Howl & Sing holds a special place in my heart, as it reflects my deep love for music, my passion for teaching children, and my desire to evoke the nostalgic essence of childhood,” Becca Mohler remarked to ageekdaddy.com. “My aim is to transport listeners back to that enchanting world, where every moment was infused with a sense of possibility and wonder.”

The album is aimed for an audience of children 1 - 8 years old has ten songs with a running time of twenty minutes.
