DVD Reviews of The Magic School Bus - Creepy, Crawly Fun!
DVD Review: Another winner
Summary: 5 Stars
My kids both LOVE the Magic School Bus videos. My son watched one in Kindergarten and raved about it so much that we bought them all--and we've never been disappointed. We have all learned fun, new facts. The kids watch them again and again.
DVD Review: Bats, Spiders and Haunted Houses (Oh My!)
Summary: 5 Stars
I homeschool (unschool) my son, and the Magic School Bus series is GREAT for teaching kids science. We have 4 DVD sets and a few VHS's.
If you're unfamiliar with the premise, the central characters are Ms. Frizzle (a teacher), her class, Liz the lizard and the Bus. Ms. Frizzle takes her class on crazy field trips, where Bus--and sometimes the kids!--experience a transformation so they can get closer to the action. (For example, become a bee or turning into water droplets.)
One of our most recent purchases was Creepy, Crawly Fun! and it's excellent as always. These three episodes are:
*Inside the Haunted House - Acoustics and hearing
*Going Batty - Nocturnal creatures and echolocation
*Spins a Web - The life of spiders
There is also a few interactive and DVD-ROM features, by my son hasn't used those.
This CD runs about 90 minutes and is supposedly geared towards children 3-8. Personally, I think the age-appropriate range is more like 6-10 because of the complex concepts introduced.
However, if younger kids enjoy it--more power to them! It certainly can't hurt to introduce science to younger kids if the Magic School Bus holds their interest.
My 8-year old son really enjoys the series now (he didn't get into it when he was younger), so I use the Magic School Bus series to supplement our learning/experimenting with science principles. And, my son seems to love Creepy, Crawly Fun--especially where Ms. Frizzle's voice is distorted!
Also, this would be a great DVD for Halloween time--especially since it's educational!
DVD Review: Awesome as usual!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Very fun and educational!!! Very creative and fun to watch!! Colorful--bright and great kids!!! Sooooo much fun!!DVD Review: MSB Gives me the Creeps !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was quite surprised at the quality of the programes, so much infomation on so many levels. Easily digested visually and verbally. It presents facts that are both sound and accurate for the range of age groups specified. As a teacher I can heartily reccommend the Magic School Bus series.
If you want to know more about bugs, bats and spiders this is one to have . I would also reccommend MSB Bugs,Bugs, Bugs!!! which is about Ants, Butterflies and Bees. Both of these DVDs are up to MSB's usual standard of excellence.
DVD Review: Very Nice "Spooky" Kid's Video
Summary: 5 Stars
My Daughter loved this, she likes Scooby Doo and halloween, it is just scary enough to be fun without being the cause of nightmares.The toy made the movie more fun for her, she like to have it handy while watching the movie --it increases her participation in the stories.
