Oscar’s Oasis Now on Netflix

March 22, 2017 By Lauren

This post is sponsored by Oscar's Oasis. All opinions expressed in this post are my own. When I was little, I watched cartoons like Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner, in which Wile E. Coyote chased the Road Runner all over the Southwest American desert. The only dialogue ever spoken in those cartoons was the "beep beep" of the Road Runner. Yet those cartoons were very entertaining! There aren't a lot of cartoons like those these days for kids. So I'm happy to discover the animated series, Oscar's Oasis by TeamTO, available to stream on Netflix. Now, my kids can enjoy cartoons like I Continue reading...
