Since Alexander got his iPad mini from Santa this past Christmas, he has become quite the video watcher on YouTube. He has become such a fan of different shows that I had to create a YouTube account just for him because I was sick of mine updating with his history, suggestions and subscriptions.

Now, a lot of you may be wondering what exactly a 7-year-old boy watches on YouTube and I will tell you…a lot of mod videos for different video games and a lot of Shaun the Sheep.

For those of you who don’t know who Shaun the Sheep is, here’s what you need to know. Shaun the Sheep is a British stop-motion animated television series, a spin-off of the Wallace and Gromit franchise.

Of course, when I first heard about Alexander’s new love for Shaun the Sheep, I had to know how he discovered him and he said it all happened because it popped up on the side of the screen when he was watching a Minecraft video and since the first episode, he’s been hooked (and there are over 100 episodes).

On August 5th, the Shaun the Sheep Movie hits the big screen at theaters nationwide. Check out the trailer for the movie below.

I know Alexander can’t wait to see the movie and I’m pretty sure we will be going on Saturday!

Get to Know Shaun

Check out this great video so you can get to know Shaun better!

I have watched a few episodes of Shaun the Sheep with Alexander and I love the way the characters are and the dedication the creators put in to the show and now the movie, stop-motion is no joke, it’s hard work!

Each of the characters offer a different personality, and they are super adorable too!

After watching all of the movie clips with Alexander, he is even more excited to see the movie. Shaun the Sheep is a great, family friendly movie and is perfect for kids ages 4-10
