Readers of Get Out of the House and Parenting OC can enter a contest for amazing free tickets brought to you by yours truly and the kind and lovely people at Feld Entertainment who are bringing Disney's Phineas and Ferb LIVE: The Best Tour Ever! to theaters around the country this fall.
Some cartoons, well, don't hold my interest. And some hold my interest but not my girls'. One cartoon that we agree on is Phineas and Ferb. The adventurous step-brothers are smart and banter in a way that pleases both me and my girls. (Unlike some other cartoons where the characters just whine or are plain ol' rude.)
So here's the dealeo: Phineas and Ferb LIVE is coming to Long Beach's Terrace Theater on Saturday, September 24 (4:00 and 7:00 p.m. shows) and Sunday, September 25 (1:00 p.m.)
Tell me what you or your kids like about Phineas and Ferb and win a Phamily Phour Pack of Tickets to whichever Long Beach performance you want to attend. If you're not familiar with Phineas and Ferb yet but want to get better acquainted with them, tell me your favorite, "You won't believe what my kid did..." story.
I'll pick 2 winners next Thursday (each winner gets 4 tix), so get your comments in by 8 p.m. on Wednesday, September 14. Comments don't post automatically, so don't panic when you don't see them go up - I have to hit the "Post Comment" button.

PS: I know times are tough for many out there. I'm trying to bring you as many contests as possible b/c I know "family entertainment" is one of the first categories slashed on tight budgets. If you don't win the tix, make time to do something fun with your kids/family - even if it's just watching cartoons on TV and having a TV dinner picnic (always a hit at our house.) It's not the size of the event that we share with our kids - it's the fact that we share our time and our attention with them.

i can't POSSIBLY tell you why my kids like phineaus and ferb, but that show is like a drug t them. in fact, i thought we were closeters...anyway, I, personally, (their mother) like the show for one reason: theirs was the first show i recorded by myself on the dvr. xo
