Released: January 22, 2013
Studio: Lionsgate
Running Time: 35 minutes
Meet Scout and his friends, Violet, Eli, and Penny…best friends who have all kind of learning adventures along with their magical toy car, Axle. The friends are engaged in a hot game of “In other Words…” when they learn that the new Museum of Opposite Words is opening in their town today! Intrigued as to what opposite words might be, they hurry off to the museum. At the museum they find The Beaver Brothers struggling to get the exhibits completed in time for the Opening Night Gala and and the museum curator, Mr Polecat in full panic mode. Together the friends use vocabulary skills to unlock the clues and help the Beaver Brothers complete all of the exhibits in the nick of time!
Explaining to kids about similar words and opposites can be hard. I know for my kids it is hard to explain that different words can mean the same thing and then explain how other words mean the complete opposite! This is a great DVD because it goes over words over and over so kids are constantly hearing them and picking them up. I honestly put this on the other day while we played in the toy room and even though my kids weren’t watching this, they were hearing the words and looking over. My 18 month old loves this DVD the most probably because of the fun and adorable animation! It is a great DVD for any preschooler (or younger) and even my kindergartner wanted to watch it again! The words are easy enough for kids but they are beneficial for kids to learn.
