Universal Pictures sent me an advance copy of The Addams Family 2 to review for free. All opinions are my own!

Addams Family 2 is the hilarious sequel featuring this fun and kooky family as they embark on a spooktacular road trip! Wednesday Addams eccentricity and smarts details just how far an Addams will go to achieve gruesome success. 

Growing up, I watched the reruns of the original The Addams Family, and then loved watching the '90s film and sequel, so I wasn't expecting the animated versions to be so great, but they really are! 

With a fully star studded cast, Morticia Addams (Oscar-Winner Charlize Theron) and Gomez Adams (Oscar Isaac), the Addams parents are noticing that their kids, Wednesday and Pugsley, are pulling away from them and growing up. Their ghoulishly funny family dinners are now abbreviated with the interruption of "scream time." Wednesday is also consumed with creating an amazing invention for her science fair project. This storyline starts the journey (literally and figuratively) to find family happiness once again and to unmask a villain! With the whole family in tow, Morticia and Gomez plan a family vacation in their haunted camper, taking Wednesday (Chloë Grace Moretz), Pugsley (Javon 'Wanna' Walton), and Uncle Fester (Nick Kroll) along for the ride!

With Wednesday's invention a la Frankenstein, she has invented a way to transfer character attributes from one creature to another. Of course, Uncle Fester is apart of this experiment, which adds to the wackiness and history of the Addams Family. Wednesday's disappointment at receiving a participation prize for the science fair makes her happily accept the invitation to Cyrus Strange, a tech whiz, voiced by Bill Hader, leading into the Addams Family road trip. 

Gomez Addams yearning to win back his daughter makes this storyline even more sweet. However, I did chuckle when Wednesday was said to be Cyrus's daughter. I mean it is pretty funny as Wednesday is already so disconnected and bored of the antics of the Addams family. Just like this haunted RV trip, this story takes twists and turns and connects with the kids and the parents. 

The whole movie is sweet, funny, and trust me, your kids are going to love the film! The Addams Family 2 is also not a one and done film, my kids enjoy watching often, so this is definitely a great addition to your family movie library.

Toy Reveal! New Bluey Toys, Plush, Playsets Coming out 2022 by Moose Toys!

If you have been a reader or follower on my social media, you probably already know that we love watching Bluey! Who is we? Well, my husband and I love Bluey, and our sons, Marcello and Rocco, ages eight and four, respectively, all enjoy watching Bluey on Disney Junior. 

Bluey is officially a household name, but if you asked a parent in 2019 who Bluey was, you may have gotten a couple of side eyes. However, the world finally woke up to this extraordinary show and in 2020, Bluey really caught on. The creators behind this show gift us beautiful, funny, and heartwarming storytelling. Pairing each show with specific playsets and accessories lends to the imaginative play that Bluey and Bingo, and even parents, Chilli and Bandit, strive for in each seven minutes (or so) of My BLUEY heaven!

Bingo is included with lots of strawberry ice cream all over her body.
