DVDs AGES 5 AND UP The Magic School Bus: Blast Off! From Sea to Space (3-DVD set); Field Trip Fun and Games (3-DVD set) Renowned for making science accessible to young minds, the Emmy-winning Magic School Bus travels to destinations no one can visit in real life. The focus is on content over glitz, and the trips prove to be rewarding learning experiences. Students are exposed to topics such as dinosaurs, forces and insects in one three-disc set, and water, the food chain and space in the other. Perfect for kids who love science – and for those who don't yet know that they do. The New Video Group, 2012; 270 min.; $24.95 for each DVD set; www.newvideo.com. Ages 5 to 10. Worlds Together: East Africa, West Africa and Ethiopia This set helps parents prepare their children for an increasingly globalized future by introducing them to the nations of the world at an early age. Nothing beats seeing the smiling faces of children with their hardworking parents to promote cross-cultural understanding, especially in the exotic environments of Africa. Maps orient the viewer to scenery so striking that it instantly generates interest – in parents and kids alike. Each of the three DVDs comes with a teacher's guide. Master Communications, 2015; 25 minutes each; $29.95 each; www.asiaforkids.com. Ages 5 to 12. KICK-OFF NOV. 10TH AT 7PM ALL HOLIDAY SEASON NOV. 10TH - DEC. 31ST Buy it Online!
