The Extraordinary Family Adventure Floats to Blu-ray™ 3D, Blu-ray™ and DVD on December 11
Sub-zero heroes, Manny, Diego, and Sid embark upon a high-seas adventure after their continent is set adrift. Using an iceberg as a ship, they encounter sea creatures and battle pirates as they try to reunite with their herd. In the wake of these upheavals, Sid reunites with his cantankerous Granny, and the herd encounters a ragtag menagerie of seafaring pirates determined to stop them from returning home.
Ice Age Continental Drift
In Ice Age Continental Drift, Manny and Peaches butt heads as Manny becomes over-protective of his daughter. In this feature, we will offer some tips on how dads and daughters can spend some time together and help create a stronger bond between the two, including going to the movies, camping, or creating a DIY project for mom.
Here are a few fun ideas to get that quality Daddy & Child Time this Holiday Season:
Go to the Movies
- The movies are a fun outing for any day of the week. Choose a new movie that interests you both, or check out a theater that plays classic family favorites. Depending on the movie’s time, you can go to lunch, dinner, or dessert afterward to discuss your favorite characters.
Camping
- Camping is a great way to enjoy the great outdoors without everyday distractions like texting and Facebook. It provides the perfect opportunity to teach your daughter how to pitch a tent and start a fire. Many campgrounds also offer great hiking trails and canoes and paddleboat rentals if they are near a lake.
DIY Project
- Everyone has a creative side, and a DIY project is perfect for showing it off. You can try a large project, such as sprucing up an older piece of furniture, or maybe try a smaller project, such as making a plant holder for the back patio. Whatever you choose, make sure Mom approves and considers all safety precautions.
Day Trip to the Zoo
- Even though the chances of seeing a wooly mammoth are slim, the zoo is a perfect place to take your daughter for quality bonding time. You can walk around searching for your favorite animals or take a guided tour to learn new and interesting facts. Bring a camera so you and your daughter can take plenty of photos with the monkeys!
Shopping… Dad’s Don’t Be Scared
- A great way to bond with your daughter is to let her roam in her natural habitat… the mall! To keep things from getting out of hand, make the time to pick out the perfect gift for mom or another relative. To balance it out, you can bring your daughter along the next time you shop for the latest gadget or sporting equipment.

Great tips for father-daughter time together. However, despite what activity that they do together, what is important is the bonding between the two. The DIY projects sound interesting and educational as well.
