Sofia the First The Floating Palace Heading to DVD April 8

Sofia the First, the Floating Palace


Sofia the First has been a cartoon staple in our house since it debuted. When the first primetime special, The Floating Palace, premiered we made sure to save that on the DVR. The kids have watched it dozens of times. It is nice to see that this is being released on DVD and that there are three bonus episodes included on the disc. Doesn’t hurt that we can free up some DVR space as well. Look for the DVD on April 8th, just in time for a nice Easter Basket gift.
