Pros:
Excellent Video for parents and kids
Cons:
Only 30 minutes in length
Whenever I'm choosing a video for my children, I always think in the back of my mind, "How am I going to feel after viewing this with them sixty or seventy times?" Children have a tendency to watch things over and over, which is why I can highly recommend this video, as well as the others in the series.
I was a very little girl when the Schoolhouse Rock segments started airing on ABC. I was entertained as well as educated then, as well as now. Although "Conjunction Junction" is the most commonly remembered song on Grammar Rock, I still remember passing a test in grade school on adverbs by remembering the song, "Lolly, lolly, lolly, get your adverbs here".
I have three children, ages five, eight and eleven, and they are all amused by watching these videos. The grammar lessons taught do tend to go over the five year olds head, but I know that the songs are memorable enough to last with him when he needs to recall the information taught in song form.
I was very pleased to see these videos released for parents to purchase for their children. It's a way that parents can look back fondly of memories that they had of watching them while they were children, and share them with their own kids. The songs are still "cool" enough to be appreciated by the youngsters of today. These videos make a great addition to your collection.
