Splash into this classic story of Ariel, the mermaid princess, who wishes to live in the world above rather than the ocean floor. To explore life on land, Ariel goes against the rules of her father, King Triton, and makes a deal with the evil sea witch Ursula. Ransoming her voice and risking to lose it forever, she must convince Prince Eric that she is indeed that girl with the enchanting voice. Sing along to your favorite songs and watch as Ariel, with the help of her friends, tries to break Ursula’s curse and win the heart of Prince Eric. Recommended for ages 4 and up.
