Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness Review
Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomness
Released on DVD today, June 18th!
Brace yourself for awesome action and legendary laughs in this fun-filled animated TV series based on the Academy Award®-Nominated hit movie Kung Fu Panda! As the chosen Dragon Warrior and sworn protector of the Valley of Peace, Po the panda is highly skilled, ever vigilant and hungry for justice…and dumplings.
Together with the Furious Five—Tigress, Monkey, Mantis, Crane and Viper—Po must fend off fierce villains, including an evil version of himself (courtesy of the Mystical Mirror of Yin and Yang) and the toothy Croc Bandits!
My boys loved the first movie, Kung Fu Panda, and especially Po so they really enjoyed watching this new movie with the same characters.
They were really enthralled in watching the show and it was fun hearing them busted up at different parts throughout the show. My 6 year old told me his favorite part was when Po fell into the hole (again) at the end of the show, saying “So hole, we meet again”.
Life Lessons From Po
In this fun feature, we will share some of the best life lessons that Po learns in KUNG FU PANDA: LEGENDS OF AWESOMENESS. These important life lessons are great to share with your little ones!
Work Together – In the episode “Chain Reaction,” Po and Tigress are forced to embark on a mission together, despite Tigress being annoyed by Po.
As luck would have it, they’re attacked by Croc Bandits and wind up handcuffed together. In order to stay safe and eventually escape, Po and Tigress put their differences aside and learn to work together to evade the Croc Bandits!
Don’t Be Boastful! In “Po Fans Out,” Po’s ego gets the best of him and he releases a supernatural creature so that he can vanquish it and look good in front of his fan club.
Unfortunately, Po’s scheme doesn’t quite go to plan. By trying to be boastful, Po puts himself and others in unneeded danger, something not even the Dragon Warrior should do!
Listen to Your Elders – In an episode fittingly titled “Bad Po,” Shifu tells Po not to touch some ancient artifacts, but Po’s curiosity gets the best of him and he gazes into the Mystical Mirror of Yin and Yang.
This ends up splitting Po into “good” and “bad” versions of himself! Because Po didn’t listen to Shifu, his “bad” ego goes on a crime spree, and “good” Po has to listen to Shifu and the Furious Five to restore himself.
Stand Up For Your Friends – In the episode, “The Princess and the Po,” Po is put in charge of protecting Princess Mei Li on a journey the Qidan Clan. Despite a rough start, Po and Mei Li eventually become friends.
However, when they arrive to the Qidan Clan, they learn that Mei Li is to be sacrificed. Po and the Furious Five then defend her and are ultimately victorious in saving the Princess!

Croc Crackdown Game
Looking for more Kung Fu Panda fun? Then, your kids will enjoy the new Croc Crackdown game available on Nick.com! Here’s a bit about the game:
The Crocs are shaking down Po and his dad for protection money! Help protect the Valley of Peace from Fung and his Croc bullies by playing “Croc Crackdown!” Play as Po and punch out the crocs in this exciting beat ’em up game!
My boys loved trying their skills at “beating” the “bad guys” as they called it. The game controls are easy enough that even my 2 year old could give the game a try. Of course, he had to have his turn too since his older brothers both wanted to try. They were excited to type in their exclusive game code and get bonus health for the game and a free computer wallpaper, too!

Learning respect
I like Po’s lesson of “Listen to your elders” because I think it’s important that my boys learn that adults don’t tell them things or give them rules to be bossy but because it is for their own good and safety 🙂
respect, if you don’t give it you won’t get it, that’s very important.
I like Work Together because it is definitely something my boys need to learn and work on. They can accomplish so much more in life by learning to work together with people.
Thanks!
My favorite life lesson is “work together”. It’s something that people should learn from the time they are little and it will carry them through life.
work together, 2 people can get over twice as much done as one
Listen to Your Elders. My kids need work with this one, and learning not to talk back or whine when we tell them to do something too.
I like standing up for what is right and defending it.
Respect
Learning respect is a tough lesson
I think respect is an important lesson for today’s children to learn
I like Be Respectful the most. I think it is lost in today’s world
don’t be boastful!
Relying on each other because we all need friends and family … and help.

Work Together cuz my son is going to Kindergarten & he’ll be LEARNING this real well soon
I like “Listen to Your Elders”. Now, if they would only teach children how to respect their elders properly by addressing them by Mr., Mrs., or Miss like children once did. I’m 50 and still address my elders this way.
Boy thats hard life lessons are so important–listen to elders,work as a team, and standing up for friends– are all really valuable to me
I like listen to your elders because I am an elder.
I like the Work Together lesson because it applies to all ages.

I like “Stand Up For Your Friends” because my kids are at the age where they are either being bully for being different or going along with the crowd against their friends who are different.

Don’t Be Boastful…we are trying to teach this to our 4 year old grandson when he plays a board game & wins.
Put aside your differences to get things done.
With having four boys in my household, “Working Together” would be a really good lesson for us 🙂
