Review & Giveaway of Children’s Series “Iesodo” 11


iesodoI received the “Iesodo” movies from Elliott at Edify Media, Inc. and was asked to view them and then give my opinion.  I was not financially compensated for this post. I received a sample for review purposes. The opinions are completely my own based on my experience.

At first I didn’t know how to even pronounce the name, but now after watching the movies and hearing that song…as well as my son who likes to sing it in the shower now, I’m having no problem remembering!!  The movies had wonderful stories and were what seemed like Saturday morning cartoons.  Were the perfect length for younger kids and even great for older ones, as well.  The short time allowed us to talk about what happened and how we felt about it.  I love that even if you weren’t a believer, the stories had some life meaning just in themselves.  Of course, the biblical background of the meaning was great for us, but any family would be happy to let their kids watch something about friendship and love and having faith in what they are going to do!  I loved the little bird names “Tom” – he cracked me up and always brought some fun to the story.

Both of the videos we watched were great – I would definitely recommend these to any parent, school group or Sunday School for sure!

“Iesodo”

BASED ON THE BEST-SELLING BOOK OF ALL TIME

Meet Iesodo (pronounced Yay-Sa-Doe), a wise dove whose name means “The Way of Jesus”! He and his lovable feathered friends live in the Holy Land in a beautiful iesodoCypress Tree on the shores of a vast Lake (or as we know it, the Sea of Galilee). The birds are an unlikely group of friends, and though they have their differences, they have one thing in common: since they met Iesodo, their lives have never been the same!

An brand new animated series based on the Teachings of Jesus. Iesodo and his feathered friends demonstrate universal principles such as sharing, loving, forgiveness and being kind. A music-filled adventure with fun the whole family can enjoy!

My children would love this movie! What kind of bird are they like? Sometimes they feel like scavengers since they are eating all day long 🙂 But they are also Love Birds!
