5 out of 5 stars My Children Love the Magic School Bus..So Do I.........2007-08-27

The Magaic School Bus series are a great way for children to learn many topics in science. My children enjoyed "Bugs, Bugs, Bugs". I also found myself sitting down and enjoying this series. This DVD would make a great addition to any childs video library..

5 out of 5 stars Bees, Ants and Butterflies.......2007-06-08

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 Bugs, Bugs, Bugs! and it's excellent as always. These three episodes are:

*In a Beehive - Exploring bee behavior and a beehive
*Gets Ants in Its Pants - Learning about the industrial world of ants
*Butterfly and the Bog Beast - Metamorphosis from caterpillar to butterfly

There is also a few bonus features:

*Bug Challenges
*Find the Camouflage Butterflies
*Ant Olympics

This CD runs about 82 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.

The Magic School Bus books are true treasures. They are fun and packed with great scientific information explained in a way that kids can really understand. The shows are great adaptations of the books and the original story lines very good too. My kids love the Magic School Bus and this video is no exception!

5 out of 5 stars Bugs, Bugs, Bugs.......2007-01-18

Ms. Frizz is just wonderful in anything. A great educational experience for the young audiences and just plain fun for the older students.

5 out of 5 stars Quenching that yearning for learning through entertainment.......2006-08-20

The Magic School Bus created some of the finest products for instruction, while completely disguising this fact to many of its young learners. Children exposed to the vast array of offerings in the field of science at young ages are still in possession of this information today. The original manner in which the students contribute information via their personalities and curiosity mix with our children's own natural instinctive curiosity about the world in which we live. Topics from this series include concepts as specific as mold and the manner in which it can help and hinder us, to as broad as the vast solar system, and systems beyond. Bugs, Bugs, Bugs is a title uniquely dedicated to the many insects and their many purposes common to our world. The only downside is that the series has apparently long been discontinued.
