Strawberry Shortcake: Snowberry Days

Coloring Page & Movie Giveaway
Strawberry Shortcake: Snowberry Days DVD Release - February 10, 2015

 

If you have a little girl in your life like I do then you are probably very familiar with Strawberry Shortcake the cute little sweetheart with a fruity getup that was originally created by Muriel Fahrion in greeting cards for the American Greetings company.  The character was expanded to a line of dolls produced by Kenner Toys (the same company that made the Star Wars action figures in the 70s & 80s that I played with as a kid) and became a huge fad with young girls in the 1980s.  I remember my sister had a number of the dolls in the Strawberry Shortcake collection and all the kids on the block were wowed by how each of the figurine's hair smelled like her fruit or desert theme.  During the 80's Strawberry Shortcake was everywhere with clothing, books, stickers, television specials, even her own Atari video game from Parker Bros to go along with the toy line.  Interest waned in the 90s but you wouldn't know that now as she is as popular as she has ever been with a new toy line by Hasbro that and a series of television shows and movies distributed by 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment. I can testify to her renewed popularity because my daughter has a bed room full of clothes, dolls, toys, books, and videos featuring the character.  So Strawberry Shortcake turns 35 years old this year and during that time she has grown a little older moving from a young girl to a tween but she is still a very sweet thing that never became spoiled.

If it is too brisk to go out and play this winter, print out and enjoy the coloring page above to keep your kids entertained.  It is promoting the upcoming release of a new Strawberry Shortcake feature titled SNOWBERRY DAYS that will be available on DVD and via digital download on February 10th, 2015.  Additionally, in honor of Strawberry Shortcake's 35th birthday one lucky A GEEK DADDY blog reader will have the chance to win a free DVD/Digital prize pack courtesy of our friends at 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment.  For a chance to win this prize pack you must be a US or Canadian resident over 18 years old and  submit one or all of the following entry methods to earn up to 3 entries prior to 11:59 pm EST on Sunday February 1, 2015:
