Customer Reviews of The Magic School Bus - Human Body

Bones, Muscles and Joints--As Well As the Digestive & Circulatory Systems
I homeschool (unschool) my son, and the Magic School Bus series is GREAT for teaching kids science. We have 4 DVD sets and a few VHS's. <
> <
>If you're unfamiliar with the premise, the central characters are Ms. Frizzle (a teacher), her class, Liz the lizard and the Bus. Ms. Frizzle takes her class on crazy field trips, where Bus--and sometimes the kids!--experience a transformation so they can get closer to the action. (For example, become a bee or turning into water droplets.) <
> <
>One of our most recent purchases was The Human Body and it's excellent as always. These three episodes cover various aspects of the human body: <
> <
>*For Lunch - The digestive system <
>*Inside Ralphie - The circulatory system <
>*Flexes Its Muscles - Bones, Muscles and Joints <
> <
>There is also a peek inside Map of the Human Body for kids to explore. <
> <
>This CD runs about 80 minutes and is supposedly geared towards children 3-8. Personally, I think the age-appropriate range is more like 6-10 because of the complex concepts introduced. <
> <
>However, if younger kids enjoy it--more power to them! It certainly can't hurt to introduce science to younger kids if the Magic School Bus holds their interest. <

>My 8-year old son really enjoys the series now (he didn't get into it when he was younger), so I use the Magic School Bus series to supplement our learning/experimenting with science principles. And, my son seems to love The Human Body; in fact, he's watching it right now!

all the rage, but I have no idea ...
I don't know what all the excitement about the Magic School Bus is but I bought it regardless, because of the positive reviews. I put the DVD to play, but then noticed that it was beyond, above my daughter's level, and decided to play it for her at a later age. She was 34 months old, but I believe I should wait until she is about 4? I'll see... <
>It looks good, but still not sure what the rage is about. My ratings is based on what others have said.
