Great new DVD/CD

This isn’t CPS related, but is educational in nature. I highly recommend the new They Might Be Giants DVD/CD set called “Here Comes Science.” For a mere $9.99 on Amazon you get both the video and music. The songs are catchy and teach kids about science topics. I’ve learned stuff myself from them. Just a note that they’re very pro-evolution-as-science so if you don’t believe we’re related to monkeys, just keep that in mind.
Here’s the Amazon link that includes a sample video:

Our almost-5-year-old LOVES this DVD/CD, and of course their previous ones — “NO”, “Here come the ABCs” and “Here come the 123s”. He learned his alphabet watching TMBG! We went to the kids show at the Vic this last weekend, and he had a blast. And, the science in this album is really really good. There’s a song about the scientific method which is terrific. And, now my son is on to learning the periodic table, thanks to TMBG!

Yeah, I love the elements one. Such a great way to introduce the topic. I think next time I buy books on Amazon I’ll get this little chart:
Periodic Table of the Elements (Cheap Charts)

There’s this cool one too:
The Elements: A Visual Exploration of Every Known Atom in the Universe

That’s very cool! Although whenever I spend that kind of money my son seems to quickly lose interest! LOL
