Dive Into Your Imagination

Ocean Life from A to Z Book and DVD wins

(Santa Barbara, CA- October 1, 2009) Dive Into Your Imagination has received the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Best DVD Gold Seal for Ocean Life from A to Z Book and DVD.  After being kid-tested across the country, a panel of experts decided that our DVDs had great educational and play value.

The Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal Award 2009 is different because “unlike most other groups that rate products, [they] do not charge entry fees or accept ads from manufacturers. When consumers see [their] award seals on products, they can be assured that they are ‘award-winning’ because they were selected by a noted expert in child development, children's literature, and education, and further tested by the most objective panel of judges-kids.”

Ocean Life from A to Z was awarded the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal Award 2009.  Products that receive a this award “enhance the lives of children”  Here is what they had to say about it:

Ocean Life from A to Z Book and DVD: “Handsome still photos are used to illustrate this big book with factoids that school aged kid will pour over. But it’s the DVD with live footage of life under the water that sets this apart. Using an alphabet format this is a little less fluid than Annie Crawley’s other DVD’s such as Who Lives in the Sea?, What Makes a Fish a Fish?, or Dive into Diversity. That said, lots of kids like to be able to hold a book in their hands and look at the pictures for as long as they wish, rather than the fleeting images on a video. 5 & up.”

Annie Crawley created the Dive Into Your Imagination series to entertain and educate youth.  The goal of these books and movies is to change the way a new generation views the ocean. They introduce children to the real Ocean habitat and are more fun than cartoons.  Kids can sing along to “The Ocean Song,” bark like a sea lion, and dive into their imagination as they adventure around the world with Ocean Annie.

You can order this and more online through the www.DiveIntoYourImagination.com/store, at www.Amazon.com.  Many aquariums and specialty stores carry them as well.

Annie Crawley is one of the top underwater cinematographers in the world.  She owns an award winning production company.  For more information on events, speaking engagements, or to learn more about the Dive Into Your Imagination series, visit www.DiveIntoYourImagination.com/store
