Creative Galaxy Amazon Originals Kids Programming + Our Party
Last Updated on February 6, 2015 by Janell
We have been members of Amazon Prime for many years. We love the free 2 day shipping. Recently we have discovered so many free shows and movies for our family that are available with our membership.
Now we are even more excited for 3 new, original shows that you can watch if you are a member of Amazon Prime: Creative Galaxy, Tumble Leaf, and Annedroids . We loved it so much that we had a party to watch the first 3 episodes. We didn't just watch the shows, we had delicious food, did some art projects, and played games!
We had a wide range of kids at our party so we decided to watch the first 3 episodes of Creative Galaxy. It was a big hit and the big kids and the little all enjoyed it. The girls loved watching the shows and coloring their own pictures. A few of the families already have Amazon Prime so they are excited to go home and watch all the episode. Everyone can watch the first episode for FREE!
Creative Galaxy, produced by Out of the Blue Enterprises with Angela Santomero (Blue's Clues, Super Why!) serving as Creator and Executive Producer, is a make-along, create-along, interactive art adventure series for preschoolers. Characters Arty and Epiphany travel around the galaxy to solve problems with art, inspiring creative thinking through crafts, music and dance. To give kids and parents the real-life tools they need to re-create Arty's experience, a live-action piece at the end of each animated episode will take viewers through the craft project that Arty showcased in the galaxy.
While the girls were coloring the boys had a blast playing Neon Bowling. All you need for this fun game are at least 6 empty water bottles, neon sticks, and a hamster ball. Put a neon stick into each of the water bottles and a few sticks into the hamster ball. Find a dark area in your house and set up a bowling alley.
For the food we had some astroid chicken and galaxy candy apples. I had a local baker from Three L Bake Shoppe come up with this clever treat. The apples were purple with glitter.
Amazon has two more original shows that your children will love.
Tumble Leaf, winner of the 2014 Annecy International Animated Film Festival Jury Award for a TV Series, is created by Emmy award-winning director Drew Hodges and Bix Pix Entertainment. The series follows Fig, a delightfully curious blue fox, and his best friend Stick, a quirky caterpillar, as they embark on a fun and nature-filled adventure, learning science through their natural play.
Annedroids, Created by Emmy-nominated J.J. Johnson (Dino Dan) and Sinking Ship Entertainment, and aimed at children aged four through seven, Annedroids is a live-action adventure series about "Anne," a young female scientist, her human friends and their android assistants, and the amazing scientific discoveries they make while undertaking the biggest experiment of them all: growing up. The series spotlights, through trial and error, how science, technology, engineering, the arts and math (STEAM) can inspire children to do great things.
Make sure you check out one of these new Amazon Original shows. Your whole family will enjoy them! Everyone can watch the first episode for FREE!
Have you watched any of these episodes?
I've always been a big fan of Amazon. I've purchased a lot of wonderful items through them.
I run a support group for special needs kids I can totally see this being a sensory game. I love the glow bowling idea.
That neon bowling looks like a blast! Will have to try it! And we finally joined Amazong Prime - just a little late to the party 🙂
We love watching the Amazon Prime shows! We'll be checking out a couple of these this weekend.
What a fantastic day you had with the kids watching Creative Galaxy, Tumble Leaf, and the Annedroids. Sounds to me like it was an all day event.
Thanks for letting me know. We may be getting prime (and cutting out our cable). I'm looking at all of our options.
WOW! What fun for the kids! Brilliant ideas! I didn't know Amazon had its own kid's programming, either! I'll have to check it out. Thank you!
I love the neon bowling idea. That's so cool and looks fun!
What a fun idea! Looks like a good time had by all!
That neon bowling is such a smart idea! We had a Tumble Leaf party too and it was SO much fun! We did kites and masks!
wow I always wondered about their programing. I'd love to look more into this and what fun things for kids cosmic bowling LOVE IT
We don't have Amazon Prime, so we can't watch this, but I love the party you had. Tons of fun!
I know a lot of people who have actually cancelled their cable because its cheaper to watch Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Etc. I think these cable and satellite companies are going to really be hurting in the next couple years OR they will just continue to jack up the rates for their users.
Amazon is offering such neat kid shows! Sounds like your kids are enjoying
Oh my goodness, what a creative party! That neon bowling looks like a blast! I'm sure it was the hit of the party!
I need to look into Amazon Prime. I didn't know that they had videos and movies. The neon bowling looks like fun.
I love my Amazon Prime also! I've never seen of these episodes. I need to look into them. They look great for my older kids..
We love Amazon Prime! So many great shows. Neon bowling looks like a lot of fun.
I want cancel our cable and just use things like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime, but my husband wants to keep cable to watch his sports.
This looks like an out of this world fun! My boys would love the neon bowling!
I did a trial of Amazon prime but i don't use it neigh to keep it. Canada's is a bit different than USA. We don't even have cable just Netflix but I haven't seen any of these.
Neon bowling looks like so much fun. One time we had a glow stick dance parties with all the kids. It was a blast.
That was the boys favorite part!
I am also a member of Amazon Prime! I love the work they are doing with helping kids to learn while enjoying doing so!
Neon bowling is such a fun idea! I'll have to look for those shows on Amazon!
This looks like so much fun. I had Prime for years and years. But, I felt like I never really used it much. I still get free shipping now, I just save up what I need to get the $35. My stuff still gets here quick, only takes another day or two. As for the streaming tv, I have Hulu and Netflix and there is a lot thats repetitive. Then, I would find a show on Amazon, watch it, like it, and they expected me to pay for the rest of the seasons. That bugs me.
Neon bowling would be a blast! Love those apples, too- my boys would eat them up!
Amazon Prime is great. Lots of good ideas for a party.
I love Amazon Prime. My kids are fans. I have to ask my son if he likes these shows.
I've had Amazon Prime for a few years now too and have never watched Creative Galaxy. I think my son would LOVE it! My only gripe with Prime is that you still have to pay for many shows (the shows I want to watch anyway), so I don't watch it too much.
I love activities like this that fire up a child's imagination. Thanks so much for sharing this.
