Let me choose

I know that the video is a good video but since I have to have my DVD remote to choose what I will watch, I cannot just let it run from beginning to end. I don't understand why the makers of the video would set it up like that.

Not what I expected

This is not up to date...the songs are old and my kids were not excited by it. the words are sung SO fast you can't even really understand what they are saying. unhip.

Family-friendly learning that's fun

I bought this video for my sons because these songs had a great effect on my schooling. I was hooked from "Conjunction Junction" and never stopped being a fan.

We like to play this DVD in the mornings, selecting the "spicy" version, which plays the songs in random order. Our children watch it as they have breakfast.

This makes me happy for two reasons:

1. I know the catchy songs will help them learn, just as they did for me;

2. and, because my kids can enjoy this DD instead of being bombarded by TV commercials.

We actually rented this DVD from Netflix first to see if our kids were going to like it. We also have rented the first seasons of Sesame Street, The Electric Company, The Muppet Show and Fraggle Rock. We don't own a lot of DVDs but I'm glad we added Schoolhouse Rock to our collection.

Engaging Teaching Tool

I would switch channels as a child to make sure I saw Schoolhouse Rock every time that it was on. Now I use it in my 3rd grade classroom to reinforce ideas with my students. They love it! I had been using the videos that I bought years ago, and I finally broke down and bought the DVD so that I could go straight to the song I needed for the concept I was teaching. Still great even years later!! (My students can't believe I watched it as a kid!)
