Carrots meet cubits as VeggieTales builds an ark filled with fun, adventure and important lessons about trusting God in NOAH’S ARK, its first Bible-themed production in more than four years. Starring Wayne Brady and Jaci Velasquez, along with Larry the Cucumber, Bob the Tomato and a whole crew of Veggies, NOAH’S ARK will be available March 3 on DVD and digital download.

In NOAH’S ARK, Shem and Sadie return home from their honeymoon to find that Noah (played by Pa Grape) has begun, at God’s direction, to work on a massive ark, which his wife Naamah (played by Madame Blueberry) and sons Ham (played by Larry) and Japheth (played by Bob) are helping construct before the start of 40 days and 40 nights of rain.

But Shem doesn’t understand Noah’s unshakable faith in God, particularly when animals start arriving two-by-two – while the rain is nowhere to be seen. When the deluge does come, Shem begins to understand Noah’s determination to preserve humanity’s future … and the importance of trusting in God.

MY THOUGHTS:

Though my son, at 6, is on the upper age group of VeggieTales’ target demographic, he still enjoyed watching Noah’s Ark.  He is in kindergarten at a Catholic school, and has learned the story of the ark–so seeing the tale brought to life was a great way to bring the message home.

I also showed the film to my one year old niece while babysitting one day. She absolutely loved the songs and danced every time she heard one.  Both kids laughed at the silly voices and antics of the characters.

As a mom, I appreciate knowing that there is a kid friendly way to teach my kids the lessons of the Bible,  and also that I don’t have to be watching TV over my kid’s shoulder for fear of him seeing something inappropriate.

The VeggieTales excitement continues with five all-new episodes of VeggieTales In The House, the hit animated series, debuting exclusively on Netflix – bringing the total of VeggieTales In the House episodes to 15 as the series continues its first season.
