Customer Rating:      Summary: Making Science Fun Comment: This video is well done and very entertaining. Mrs. Frizzel is the science teacher we all wish we had had!! The entire Magic School Bus series makes science very exciting and fun and practical. I think I enjoy these videos as much as my daughter does!
Customer Rating:      Summary: The Magic School Bus- In The Rainforest Comment: All the Magic School Bus adventures are wonderful. My grandchildren, ages 2-5, adore them and the grownups love Lilly Tomlin's voice! The stories are colorful,full of learning and adventure, and are not scary for little ones.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Chocolate And The Rainforest Comment: Enjoyable, well produced and very respectful. It's interesting to examine the interdependence of everything in the rainforest's ecosystem. The presentation is very age-appropriate and encourages kids to think for themselves and solve the mystery. The children loved it and were attentive. They talked about how their mom makes hot chocolate and liked learning about where it comes from. "Cocoa beans turn into pods and then it makes chocolate, right?" "I liked how everyone solved the mystery together." Best for ages 2 to 5.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent Comment: All of the Magic School Bus videos are great. My 6 year old says that the best part is when the Magic School Bus goes through the mud. They worst part is when the "investigator" gets angry.

The irresistible pull of chocolate is the catch for this lesson from the dandy kids series The Magic School Bus. The kids give a cocoa tree to their intrepid teacher Ms. Frizzle (voiced by Lily Tomlin) for an Earth Day present. When the tree yields only one bean, it's off to the rain forest to discover why. The life of a cocoa plant, including how pods, mud puddles, and bugs play a part in its development should have the little ones curious (and a bit shocked) about how the basic ingredient in chocolate comes to be. All this plus side trips to visit iguanas and other animals of the rain forest. (Ages 6 to 12) --Doug Thomas
