Are you (and your kids) done with Dora and bored with Buster?

If you’re looking for a great “alternative” gift idea for your kids… just follow the bouncing “Dottie” to DottiesMagicPockets.com. Launched in September 2007, the direct-to-DVD program is the first childrens’ show for LGBT families & friends. It was recently featured on NPR’s Marketplace and will be appearing as entertainment on the March 2008 R Family Vacations cruise (Rosie’s Cruise).

The first Dottie’s Magic Pockets DVD (Code 1) contains two 25-minute episodes, entitled “Doing the Flower” and “Beat Beet” (the latter co-written by former Baseler and Balehoo author, Karena Meehan – that’s me!). Each episode features the fabulous Dottie and her polka-dotted bow, along with zany puppets, cartoons, catchy songs and dances that are perfect for ALL kids in both traditional and non-traditional families. The episodes also include images and characters – such as Princess, a caterpillar with two dads – that represent gay and lesbian households.

Dottie’s Magic Pockets is available on DVD at www.dottiesmagicpockets.com for $19.99 retail (plus shipping and handling). And don’t miss the great Uncanny the Singing Can “Burp!” t-shirts for kids and adults - perfect for all the beer (and near-beer) drinkers on your list.
