A Schoolhouse Rock Testimonial
When I was in third grade I never could get my times tables down pat- the sevens and twelves proved especially tricky. So my mom checked out this video from the library, and that changed immediately. I could rattle off my multiplication tables as fast as everybody else after watching this only a few times. Amazing! That same year I got put in advanced math. Coincidence? I think not! All the songs ...

Schoolhouse Rock! - Grammar Rock [VHS]

Walt Disney Video, 1997

Great Refresher for Adults
I work with many adult college students who do not remember basic grammar. I often recommend they buy this for a quick, basic grammar review. It sounds silly when I first say it, but this is a fun and memorable way to understand grammar. Many students report watching it with their children. It's also very helpful for ESL students.

A WONDERFUL girls show!
I was a HUGE fan of Princess Gwenevere and the Jewel Riders when I was younger and saw it on television, and I was terribly disappointed when it went off the air. They just don't make 'em like this anymore! Jewel Riders is a colorful world of friendship, love, and adventure, with very little violence and "suggestive" themes like most of today's cartoons have. The main characters are wonderful ...

The Tricks Still Work
I bought this several years ago for my sister at Christmas, and heard it was fine. But just reading the list of videos that are on this tape, I see them flash right before my eyes. Therefore, I feel perfectly qualified to review this product for you. I don't quite know what I would have done without Schoolhouse Rock. Well, maybe not Grammar Rock, although those were some of my favorites ...

Schoolhouse Rock! - Money Rock [VHS]

Money Rock: great discussion-starter & provocative
I was totally overwhelmed by the prospect of explaining to my 6-year-old what money was and why I couldn't just 'get it from the machine.' This video was great: it's fun for adults as well as kids, and makes it possible to segue into discussions about allowances, presidents, history, and budgeting. Even Wall Street gets a mention. The music is unexpectedly good. Paired with the game 'Moneywise ...

Homeschooling mother of five
Well, i am here to say this is a fabulous tool! I watched all of these as a child and have shared them with my children. For those of you with the less than 5 star reviews let me say...This is not meant to be an exhaustive history lesson! It is a great way to introduce children to the history of our country. Something that, in my experience, schools made very boring. My children love history. ...

Family Circus Easter [VHS]

3 reviews
Nathan Berg, Anne Costello

Live / Artisan, 1995

Daring and Shocking!
To re-do the passion of Jesus Christ using the characters from the Family Circus was a bold and daring venture that only Bill Keane could pull off successfully. With PJ as Christ, and Billy as Judas, especially, we are shown an unexpectedly shocking and accurate crucifixion scene; Idaknow as Pilate especially shines through here. Kudos to Keane for keeping the TRUE meaning of Easter here!

Pogo For President - I Go Pogo [VHS]

5 reviews
Jonathan Winters, Vincent Price

Walt Disney Home Video, 1989

"We have met the enemy, and he is us"
In the plotline, Pogo is nominated (without being asked if he is interested) to run for President of the USA. When asked to run, he responds that he doesn't even like to walk. All the characters we know and love from the Okefenokee Swamp are busy trying to get him elected, but there is the seedy side of politics. The money dealing and political maneuvering just get to be too much for our possum ...

A Family Circus Christmas [VHS]

Lions Gate, 1992

A Gentler Time
The star for the top of the Christmas tree can't be found! As you move thru the story, grandpa (who has recently deceased) 'connects' with Billy and shows him where the long, lost star is. It evokes feelings of love, family and home. No harsh language, only a sweet story with a moral - from a gentler time.

Why I can recite the Preamble!
This video is the only reason that I was ever able to memorize the Preamble. In American History I had to say it for a grade and it was hard to keep from singing it! I'm in AP US History now and believe me, I never thought that I'd watch this video to help review for a test (but I did, and I got an A on the test). Besides that, History Rock has a lot of infectious tunes that never become ...
