Why We Rated This on for Ages 3 and Up

The good stuff

  • Messages:

    Positive showcase of supportive friendships -- even the one trick played was done with the intention of helping, not hurting, the victim.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence & scariness:

    Not an issue.

  • Sexy stuff:

    Not an issue.

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    Although not a commercial, the movie acts to support branding efforts for Strawberry Shortcake merchandise (which includes a new Princess line). Packaging includes an "Activity Book" that includes four pages of games and seven pages of advertisements.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Strawberry Shortcake: Rockaberry Roll

Parents need to know that this DVD will be mildly entertaining for young girls and includes good role models for friendships, but is short on plot and substance. Good teamwork is shown, as is the lesson that practice and positive thinking are keys to overcoming new challenges. There's only one boy to be found, but the animated characters include friends from different racial backgrounds.
