Fun and Educational
I watched a few episodes of this show when it still aired, and even though it was aimed at a younger audience (I was a teenager at the time), I remembered it being fun enough that I thought our 3-year old daughter would enjoy it. She simply LOVES this show!
The length is perfect (about 25 minutes per episode), and the characters are a good range of nationalities and personalities. Ms Frizzle is the teacher we all wish we had, and the humour in the show keeps even my husband and me amused (especially the last segment of the show, featuring The Producer). Quite a lot of accurate information is presented in an easy-to-understand and very attention-capturing manner.
I particularly like that this dvd offers the shows in English and Spanish, as we are raising our daughter to be bi-lingual and it is often difficult finding shows in Spanish. The Spanish-speakers are definitely native speakers; for someone who is trying to learn Spanish, it may be a bit too fast-paced,...
Excellent.
I loved that however corny and odd this set of movies seems to me, my children love it. And they actually learn things. I love when my boy comes to me and tells me facts about animals I'd never even heard of.
The Magic School Bus scores again. :)
Background sound missing
I love the episodes but the sound is messed up on several episodes. Should return it but not sure how :( sad I can't use them with my lessons
