Summary
  • When Emma and Noah find a mysterious box of toys on the beach, strange things start happening. The kids develop special powers and with their parents and teachers, they realize that their mission is far more important than they had ever dreamed
  • When Noah and Emma Wilder discover a special box on the beach, they open it and unlock an exciting adventure beyond imagination. Inside they find Mimzy, a magical stuffed rabbit along with other mystical toys, which give the children exceptional powers of their own. Able to move objects with their minds and solve complex equations, these new wonder kids begin to attract the attention of their parents, teachers, and even the FBI. Surrounding the phenomenon of Mimzy is an awesome secret -- one that holds the key to saving the future of all mankind. - Container
