Disney Princess Lessons: Snow White



Hello guys,
As I mentioned in a previous blog post I am a massive Disney lover and the other day I was watching Snow White and I had an idea. I'd been thinking a lot about how I could include some Disney related posts into my blog and then I had the idea of doing a collection of blogposts where I look at the important values a Disney film teaches. Disney Princess films are loved by most, but especially young girls so it is important for these princesses to be a good influence and bring out positive characteristics in them. So I am going to be sharing with you what I have learnt from each Disney princess film, starting with Disney's first; Snow White.



Jealousy is Harmful

In the film the Queen, who consults her magic mirror everyday, is told that she is not as beautiful as Snow White so she plots to kill her. Granted, this is extreme it still teaches that jealousy harms not just others but yourself too. Her judgement, self obsession and jealousy get is the way of her happiness.


Kindness and Friendships are very important

Snow White's heart shone through as she was beautiful both outside and in. Her kindness makes other people want to help her; the huntsman let her go and the dwarfs let he into there home. Her friends rush to try and save her and are always at her defense.


People aren't always what they seem

This is both positive and negative. The obvious negative example is when the Queen disguises herself as an old women and tricks Snow white into eating her poisoned apple. Yes, Snow White was very naive to take food from a creepy old lady so I guess don't take food from strangers is a good lesson too! A positive example of this though is Grumpy the Dwarf who appears as hostile and unwelcoming towards Snow when she first arrived but ended being very attached to her. I think that it shows giving people a chance is important and always showing them kindness even if it's not returned straight away.



Thank you for reading, I hope you have enjoyed this post.  Look out for more like this, with the next being Cinderella, who is Disney's second princess.

Exciting News!

Hello guys,
I am a massive High School Musical and I could probably recite for you all three of the incredible films if I tried! I know every song and a year or so ago learnt the 'we're all in this together' dance. 



The movies came out when I was quite little so when my cousin told me they where making these films up to High School Musical 20, I believed him! Although that hasn't happened they are one step closer to reaching that - High School Musical 4 has been announced! Although the original class will not be in the film I am still excited to watch the instalment as it will also feature more of West High Knights, which will be quite interesting! 

So because Disney will be writing the storyline about a whole new class they will obviously be casting new people for the roles and unfortunately the auditions aren't international! I did look up straight away if I could audition but I don't think I will be able too! However it will be nationwide.

So what do you think, will HSM 4 be a success or will it not live up to the first fees standards! 

Sorry I haven't blogged in a while, I will hopefully be posting more and have a few planned already! Have a great week,

Abi

I'm a Disney Addict!

Hello Guys,

So as some of you may know I love Disney. A lot. If someone said something that's a line in a Disney song, usually accidentally, I will often burst out into song! Which is quite embarrassing sometimes! I of course love watching the movies and something fun is noticing the hidden Easter eggs (for those of you who don't know a Disney/Pixar Easter egg is something or someone from one film 'hidden' in another, but it doesn't affect the plot at all) for example Rapunzel and Eugene going to Elsa's coronation. 



Some clever people who notice these things have made theories online and share them with the rest of us Disney lovers! For example 'Where Elsa and Anna's parents on their way to Rapunzel and Eugene's Wedding on their boat trip?'

A while ago I found the very nerdy Disney website named 'The Disney Theory' and I got very excited! It has a lot of interesting additions to the Disney magic and is defiantly worth the read!

Have a lovely week,
