a must have for the home video library August 25, 2008
Karen Lipman (Centennial, Colorado U.S.A.)
Magic school bus is always a hit in our house, and catches a wave is no different. If you can look past the info on things being millions of years old, instead of creation based, you will love this. Very entertaining and lots of good information.
Another hit! July 14, 2008

I recommend Magic School Bus videos to all moms - I don't mind my kids & grandkids watching these over & over. I think they help build interest in science for most kids.
 Very Satified January 18, 2008
T. Cobb (Redondo Beach, Ca United States)
I am very satisfied with my purchase. It arrived in good shape and within the time line that was promised at the time of purchased. My daughter loves to watch them and share all she learns about science with everyone she comes across. I will not hesitate to buy more vidoes by Karen Bernstein.
Catch a winner! November 2, 2007

My kids LOVE the Magic School Bus videos. We've learned so many new things. They watch them over and over again. It's even interesting for the adults.

I homeschool (unschool) my son, and the Magic School Bus series is GREAT for teaching kids science. We now have all the 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.)
I recently purchased The Magic School Bus: Catches a Wave for my son to complete our collection. As usual, it's excellent!
This particular DVD has a run time of 80 minutes and features these three episodes:
Wet All Over - The Friz takes her class on a rainy ride through the life cycle of a water drop.
Rocks and Rolls - Friz and the kids go on a rough-n-tumble journey as they see a boulder subject to water erosion.
Ups and Downs - This bubbly trip takes place at the bottom of Walkerville lake!
There's not much in the way of bonus material, as usual (only What Comes Next?: How Fast Can YOu Unravel These Water Mysteries). The languages available are English, Spanish and French.
Highly recommend edutainment for children, especially if you want to introduce or reinforce science concepts!
