Description:
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

5  Great Nostalgia or Introduction, Depending Upon Your Age
I'm a big fan of the Schoolhouse Rock series and concept. They blend catchy rhyming, almost like Dr. Seuss at times, with plenty of basic facts for kids to learn, covering several different areas (math, grammar, history, science). Schoolhouse Rock reminds kids - and adults - that learning can be fun. This compendium tape gives us a count-down of Schoolhouse Rock Greatest Hits. Sit back and let your kids learn - while you smile and try not to sing along! (Good luck with that!)
5  I love when my kids love Schoolhouse Rock and Scripture Rock
My kids love this tape. I'm amazed at how these songs hold up year after year. - Conjunction Junction, I'm Just A Bill- those are the best but the others are good too.
I got this for them and noticed that the made a Schoolhouse Rock for Bible called Scripture Rock and my kids love both Schoolhouse Rock and Scripture Rock.
