MY THOUGHTS:

I think Sid the Science Kid is an adorable show as do my boys, so I knew they would enjoy this one.  It is a show about a kindergarten class that uses science to learn.  There are four friends, each different and unique, but all best friends.  This DVD is especially neat because it is all about weather, which is a hard subject to explain to kids, at least to my 3 year old!  The episodes cover rain and clouds, using sunscreen and the sun, snow and cold temperatures, and wind!  Sid has some great adventures in these episodes and the show really does explain science in a way for young kids to understand.  There is also lots of singing involved, which is quite cute!  Overall, I would recommend this DVD to any parent looking for ways to help their children understand why rain is okay, what clouds really are (no not cotton candy!), why sunscreen is important, how cold weather can be fun, and how wind can be fun (flying kites!)
