The Oogieloves in The Big Balloon Adventure is a unique interactive movie experience for toddlers!


It allows your children to be children by encouraging them to sing and dance with their new onscreen friends! From the very first moments of this interactive movie, the main trio, Goobie, Zoozie, and Toofie starts appealing to the kids in the audience. They set up the rules of the Oogieloves experience: When you see the butterflies flitter around the screen, feel free to jump, dance and join the fun. The fun, funny and fantastic adventure follows the Oogieloves as they set out to find five magical golden balloons in time for their good friend Schluufy’s surprise birthday party.
