Growing up, I was a HUGE fan of The Muppet Show. I watched every episode, I had the plush animals, the t-shirts, the magazines, and my walls were full of Muppet posters. I bought a new Muppet calendar every year. I loved the characters and the quirky humor, and I still do. I am so happy that all of my favorite characters from The Muppet Show are still around today so I can share the humor and joy of this iconic show with my children. Most recently, we shared a lot of laughs watching Muppets Most Wanted together.
Miss Piggy was my childhood heroine: strong, sassy, and not afraid to go after what she wanted. Kermie touched my hippie soul, and I don’t know how many times I sang along to “The Rainbow Connection” with him. There are so many hilarious Muppet characters: the Swedish chef (bork, bork, bork!), Beaker (meep!), and the predecessor to Steven Colbert, Sam the Eagle. All of these brilliant characters, and many more, make an appearance in Muppets Most Wanted, a hilarious family film that is being released at Disney.com today! Starting August 12th, Muppets Most Wanted is available on Blu-Ray Combo Pack and Digital HD at Disney.com.
This truly is a movie the whole family will enjoy! Your kids will love the Muppets, you’ll love the appearances by top comedians like Ricky Gervais and Tina Fey. Your tweens will get a kick out of cameos from stars like Lady Gaga and Usher. It’s the perfect movie for family night, because it has something for everyone.
Since I’m such a Muppet fan, as is my family, I was inspired by the movie to update a project that’s been on my to do list. I’ve had a stick figure family on my car that I made over 3 years ago. The baby is no longer a baby, and I was ready for an update. I wanted something fun, and Muppets Most Wanted gave me the idea to turn our family into a Muppet family. So I did! Here’s how:
