Here is some additional information about the Penguins of Madagascar and some “missions” your kids can try at home:

Inside specially marked boxes of General Mills cereals, you“ll “commence operations” with one of five characters from The Penguins of Madagascar; Skipper, Rico, Kowalski, Private or King Julien. Each participating cereal contains one character launcher with mission details outlined on the back of the box including:

* Dive In, Soldier – Set an empty plastic cereal bowl on the table and try to pop your launcher into it. Wear a helmet or you“ll be squid bait.

* Longest Propulsion Launcher – Challenge your troops to see who can launch their character the furthest. Go long or go back to the zoo.

* Target Practice – Create a landing zone with a spoon and try to strategically drop your character into the sweet spot. Hit the target or go back to the drawing board.

* Clear the Wall – Do you have enough projectile pop to push your launcher over the top of the box? Proceed launchin“ troops, earn those wings.

Each character is unique and has their own specific role, and together, they“re a team with lots of character. With five character launchers to collect, make a splash this summer and try to successfully complete all of their missions.

You can watch the Penguins of Madagascar episodes on Nickelodeon this summer.

*The information, and prize pack have all been provided by the General Mills and Nickelodeon through MyBlogSpark.
