Available Today on DVD -- "Shimmer & Shine: Magical Pets of Zahramay Falls" (Review)

Disclosure: I was sent a review copy from the vendor in order to write up an honest review. All views shared are mine and mine alone.



Both of my girls are huge Shimmer and Shine fans.  So, when they saw this new DVD, which arrived in stores today arrive in the mail the other day, they were all smiles and on their best behavior so that they could watch it. :-)  But, before we could settle in and watch this new release, which features 8 full-length episodes of their favorite episodes from this popular animated series on Nick Jr., they had to gather up all their Shimmer and Shine pets and figures and get dressed up in their Shimmer and Shine costumes...that way they would be ready to act out the scenes while they watch this new DVD.

I wish I could give a favorite episode from this 94 minute DVD, but my girls enjoyed them all.  How could you choose just one of the cute fur-ever friends, that this new release features.  My girls couldn't, and you know what, neither could as, as they are all great. :-)

If you have a Shimmer and Shine fan in your life, this is definitely one DVD you want to pick up to add to their growing DVD collection from this hit show.  My girls have already watched the DVD a handful of times at home and on the go, and they continue to wake each day and ask to watch it again.  So, I see this being a favorite DVD of theirs for quite some time. :-)

  • Untamed Talent - Leah's Fox, Tala, Nahal, and Zayne all compete in the Zahramay Falls Pet Talent Show to win a wish from Princess Samira. Zeta enters Nazboo in the talent show and cheats to help him win so that she can have the prize for herself, but her plan backfires. 
  • Pet Bedroom - When Tala and Nahal accidentally get loose in Zahramay Falls, Leah and Parisa must track them down before Shimmer and Shine notice they're gone.
  • Zany Ziffilon - Zac offers to pick a pet for Kaz and wishes up a Ziffilon (part lion, part eagle). The pet isn't exactly what Kaz imagined; he's huge, he's clumsy, and worst of all, he pounces on everything!  When the Ziffilon runs away, the gang must venture out to bring him back before he causes any trouble. 
  • Now You See Her - After Zeta captures a rare Zahramay fox with color-changing fur, she uses the fur to make an invisibility potion so that she can steal gems from Samira. Now, it's up to the girls to save Samira's jewels and give the fox a new home.
