Movie Review: School House Rock - 30th Anniversary
Summary: 5 Stars
My children grew up with school house rock. Contains all the school house rock CLASSICS. At work people keep wondering why I say that "My name is Bill" - or they start singing with me! Highly recommended!Movie Review: Fun and Educational!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I can remember watching these "commercials" on Saturday morning when I was a child. I actually learned a lot off of these songs! Sometimes more than I learned in school.
Today, my children love listening to this. Singing along to the music is a great way to learn English grammar, math, social studied and more!! FUN!!
Movie Review: Great Stuff
Summary: 5 Stars
I am 39 , and I grew up with SHR every Saturday Morning. There are some great ones on this tape, but If you are like me, you wanted more, so I go the DVD set. All in all, I would recommend the complete dvd set, but if you only want a good taste of SHR, then get this tape. You cant go wrong either way. Hey, its SHR.
And for those uptite, people, and history buffs, who are griping about how SHR is not all that accurate on their segments, I say this, SHR was never meant to be that aaccurate. It was just meant to give kids a taste and feel of our history. Sure, some of it is not that accurate, or alot of it is left out. Take it for what it is. Its a great learning tool. Its not the gospel or anything...Geeeezzzz.
Movie Review: The Tricks Still Work
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this several years ago for my sister at Christmas, and heard it was fine. But just reading the list of videos that are on this tape, I see them flash right before my eyes. Therefore, I feel perfectly qualified to review this product for you. I don't quite know what I would have done without Schoolhouse Rock. Well, maybe not Grammar Rock, although those were some of my favorites ("Conjunction Junction, what's your function?"). But I know that when I come up against a problem in my adult life that forces me to multiply an odd combination, like 13 and 7, I immediately go back to a skater telling me "Now here's a chance to brush up on your new math tricks, 'cause 8 times 12 is the same as 10 times 8 plus 2 times 8...80 plus 16, 96!" And when the MSM has me totally discombobulated about what's happening with the law that was supposed to be passed last year about the Hossenpfeffers not killing off the Bellywhackers, suddenly I find myself singing to myself "I'm just a bill, yes I'm only a bill..." and I remember the process. And how long it can take! (Now, you have to understand, teachers for babyboomers took special classes on how to make history and civics as boring as possible. So Schoolhouse Rock and Little House on the Prairie were our only exposure to what our past was like. Accurate or not.)
These videos are timeless. All kids can benefit from learning about multiplication and grammar. All kids in the US can benefit from learning about incidents in history such as when women got the vote ("Oh we were sufferin', until suffer-age!") and the signing of the Declaration of Independence; as well as how our tripartate system of government works. Whether you buy "The Best of Schoolhouse Rock!-30th Anniversary Ed." for your kids, or just to reminisce, I think you will enjoy it.
Summary of The Best of Schoolhouse Rock! - 30th Anniversary Edition
Schoolhouse Rock, the timeless collection of animated songs that taught an entire generation that knowledge is power, is back in this special 30th Anniversary Edition. THE BEST OF SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK features the Top 25 songs as voted by Schoolhouse Rock fans everywhere in an online poll. Now every day can feel like Saturday morning as you sing along with "I'm Just A Bill," "Three Is A Magic Number," "Interjections!" and the rest of your favorite tunes. Featuring a brand-new, soon-to-be-a-classic animated song by the original series' creators, these all-time Schoolhouse Rock favorites will keep you rockin all day long!Admit it: if it weren't for Schoolhouse Rock, you probably couldn't recite the preamble to the Constitution, and you might be fuzzy on the function of conjunctions, too. All the more reason to cue up the 30th-anniversary video, which culls 25 fan-selected favorites ("I'm Just a Bill," "My Hero Zero") plus a new, informative and wacky Electoral College number. The countdown, kind of like Casey Kasem's of the same era, reaches out to old-school Schoolhouse Rockers with instant recognizability (number 25 is the frontier-busting "Elbow Room"), but better yet, the science, math, grammar, and history bits burst through the decades dust bunny-free--verbs are still happening, and Interplanet Janet's intergalactic gusto still seems groovy. Turn it off halfway though and a flurry of interjections from a new flock of 4- to 10-year-olds may fly. --Tammy La Gorce
