I got a big kick out of Sofia The First: The Floating Palace. I know the show does very well with young girls, but this old girl likes it too. Sofia is a young princess who has the ability to talk to animals if she is wearing her magical amulet. In this movie Sofia helps out Oona, a mermaid. After doing so, Sofia is able to be temporarily turned into a mermaid and can go see the underwater kingdom and make new friends. In typical disney fashion, there is a villain (Cedric disguised as a sea monster) that wants Oona’s enchanted mermaid comb. Mermaids are in peril. A vicious storm endangers Sofia’s whole family. Everyone will have to work together to save both worlds. By that I do mean everyone, there’s a special appearance by Princess Ariel, who we all know and love from The Little Mermaid. I swear I saw flounder in there too! Will everyone be able to get along to fight this fight? You’ll have to watch and see for yourself! I can say that this might have been my favorite Sofia yet, because it contained the charm of typical Sofia but a bit of the danger and good vs evil of a Disney movie. This movie would be great for all Disney fans.
Here’s a film clip called The Love We Share.

To my shame I haven’t seen a single episode of these, but my daughter seems to know so much about Sofia the First
I am definitely going to get this for my niece! She loves this series and has a friend at school named Sophia… they call her Sophia the Second 😉
Ariel is my favorite Princess…so this is just so cute! Love it!
I love Sofia! I think her story line is great for young kids.

This looks like such a cute movie. I think my nieces would have loved it when they were younger!
My little one is 4 years old and will probably love this release. I need to order a copy of this DVD.
Great video character–I just wish that it featured more significant male roles.
