Barbie in the Nutcracker ~ Sugarplum Fairy

Although this is an adaptation of the original Nutcracker ballet, it is an adorable movie filled with love, kindness and caring for your fellow creatures.

Of course, as you would expect from Sylvestermouse, this is a recommended musical, but do be aware that younger children might find parts of this video and most fairy tails frightening. Be sure to watch them with your little ones.
