i got to review three children’s DVDs that are wonderful learning resources.

Sid the Science Kid: Change Happens

In this movie Sid wants to know why things change. like his yellow banana turning brown, ice cream melting, shoes shrinking, and more. Sid and hid friends work together on some experiments and discover the effects of time, temperature and environment.

*We really like this movie and it was very informative as to why change happens. one of the common questions asked by my children everyday.   I think its a great show for introducing science to young children.

episodes:  My Mushy Banana, My Shrinking Shoes, My Ice Pops, and the Perfect Pancake

run time: 115 min.

Sid the Science kid: The Bug Club

843501003770 Sid The Bug Club DVD

 

 

Sid hears a dog barking, and wonders if the dog id talking to him. At school he learns animals do communicate through body language and making sounds.  He also finds himself on a quest to find out why dirt is so dirty,  bees live in beehives, and ants live in anthills.

This DVD is jammed pack with exciting information about bugs, nature, animals and more. My kids got such a thrill learning about new animals and the way they communicate. Sid the Science Kid DVDs are really a great science experience for small children.

Episodes: Hello Doggie, Home Tweet Home, The Dirt on Dirt, and Don’t Forget the Leaves

115 min. long

 

Dive Olly Dive: Ship Shape Sub

Dive Olly Dive Ship Shape Sub DVD

 

Olly Beth and Doug ignore a warning from diver doug when they decide to stay overnight on a haunted shipwreck. The friends start thinking the ship might not be haunted, but it’s still dangerous.  plus in another jam packed episode: Suzy the sea plane doesn’t listen to ranger the cowboy seahorse, because of his size. When Suzy gets tangled in the kelp forest, she learns good things can come in small packages.

* this moving is full of learning and we really enjoyed it. My kids loved being able to see under water world, and I loved all the valuable lessons it taught. learn from your mistakes,  don’t judge by a cover.  Great learning tool for my preschooler and tots.

  7. The favorite at our house is the Goodnight Show with Nina and Star. I was able to meet Nina at BlogHer and she gave me an autographed picture for my three year old daughter. (We were both thrilled, can ya tell?)

    We also like Sid the Science Kid alot. My fave is when he sings, “My momma, my momma’s cool. But now it’s time to go to school.” I would be a “cool” mom if I won this for my daughter, hahahaha.

    Thanks for a fun giveaway!

  15. We love Sid the Science kid. The chemistry teacher in me is happy to see a show like this out there for my kids.
