My 7.5 year-old daughter is obsessed with fantasy. She spends most of her time running around the house in wizard robes casting spells on various members of the family. When she chooses a movie it is either Harry Potter, Narnia, The Sorcerer’s Apprentice or the like. When she’s playing, she completely immerses herself in an imagination induced world of fantasy and magic.
It is an amazing thing to watch and listen to. The other day I was working and she was running around upstairs. I could hear her chatting away, casting spells, and exploring this imaginary world she had created. She was leaping around, casting spells while battling the enemy with her fellow wizards. It couldn’t have been more real to her.
Imagination is such a gift and, lately, there have been many book series and movies and games that feed the fantastical. Often these are the foundation of my girl’s play. So, when the folks at Disney offered us the opportunity to give away 4 copies of the Sorcerer’s Apprentice for Nintendo DS I jumped at the chance.
The contest will run until October 12th at 5pm EST.
