A Christmas Carol DVD |
If you still haven't got your A Christmas Carol DVD yet, make sure you get it shipped within a few days time cause if you don't, you would be the one missing out on the fun. A Christmas Carol is a classic that every one should read. Just in case you can't get your hands on the book (which is quite unusual) go for the DVD. But if you are planning to get your kid to watch the movie cause he is too young to be able to read it himself and grasp its essence, DVD is your best option.

For most kids below 10 years of age, understanding the inherent meaning that lurks behind this ever so simple, beautifully written piece might get a little difficult. Forcefully making your kid go through the book that he doesn't prefer over his favorite Archie comic might get a little irritating for you as well as for your little one. Spare him of the tedious ordeal; make it a fun experience for him and yourself. Take time out and sit with your kid while the movie is being screened. Explain the complex dialogues, biblical allegories and the metaphorical meanings they carry. A heavy dose of philosophy might put him off. Let the whole idea seep in slowly but surely. Making your kid aware of the circumstances and background of Ebenezer Scrooge is also important. Let him develop his own unbiased opinions. Let him sympathize with Scrooge rather than hate him.
