First-rate educational entertainment for the whole family.

The DVD is excellent in teaching scientific facts, for instance, my 3 year old loves the episode on bats, and has learned much from it. (She corrected me when I said bats were blind.) I also give it high marks beause the teacher does not always answer the children's questions, but instead leads them to a situation where they can discover the answers themselves through interaction and experimentation. My only negative comment is to get to the situation always involves some "magical" transformation. It just seemly highly ironic to juxtapose scientific explanations with impossible magical transformations, but the kids love it.

My son and daughter love this magic school bus dvd. they watch it all the time. he is four and she is two. also, they love the human body dvd. well worth the money.

I got this for my kids because I think the Magic School Bus is great. Fortunately, the kids like them too! Good elementary explanations of everyday things that get kids asking questions, AND listening to the answers. Very enjoyable and easy to watch. These aren't really my favorite episodes, but they are good!

This tape consists of three unrelated episodes, two of which are very good. The first is, "Going Batty," which reveals the amazing facts and myths about those wondrous creatures of the night. The second, "Spins a Web," shows us how different spiders hunt and catch their prey and is also very good. The third, "Inside a Haunted House," attempts to explain dynamics of sound on a preschool level. It's a complicated subject that was over simplified. The writers of this episode didn't seem to have a complete grasp of the subject themselves. It's an entertaining story but not as informative as the other videos.

My 3yr. old daughter is completely captivated by this video.As a preschooler it introduces her to a class-like format.She loves all the adventures and the teacher as well!
