Review Video Playdate:Based on the notion that imitation is a powerful teacher, Video Playdate is a live-action program meant to encourage toddlers to master life skills by watching its host, 3-year-old Kristen, perform a myriad of tasks throughout a typical day. Beginning with "Time for Breakfast," Kristen's activities are broken into short segments accompanied by instrumental music. Whether she's eating grapes, getting dressed, or digging sand, the articulate toddler engages viewers with enthusiastic dialogue and description. Especially noteworthy are the sections on color and alphabet recognition, which will naturally elicit audience participation. Unlike other live-action toddler programs where the focus is usually on music and song, this one emphasizes the mechanics and mastery of important developmental tasks. The gently paced program caters to a toddler's brief attention span and can be watched in short intervals. Captivating and well crafted, it's the next best thing to a real play date. (Ages 18 months to 4 years) -Lynn Gibson.

Review Four Fish Fly Free - Copper Rhythm and Blue:Come watch Copper and Counselor Crab as they step on fins while learning to dance. With the help of Blue, Miss Angel, and Nurse Shark, Copper and Crab together learn to get the beat from their heads into their bodies. Copper is the brain of Miss Angel's music class: her fin is the first to go up with an answer to every question. But when it comes to feeling and understanding rhythm, she has a very big problem. Thank goodness Copper is not alone. Counselor Crab shares her problem; he has never been able to dance and needs to learn before his cousin's wedding. For Copper's friend Blue the beat is as natural as swimming. Blue has been playing drums since before she can remember. With the help of Blue, Miss Angel, and Nurse Shark, Copper and Crab together learn to get the beat from their heads to their bodies. Original songs include "The Beat in Your Feet"; "Crab's Lament"; "Listen to the Rhythm of Your Heart"; "The Rythym Dance"; and "Mouth No Move, Drums No Play. [+]" Musical Education Notes: Beat, Rhythm, Chants, Elementary Percussion Exercises.

Review Parenting the Explosive Child: featuring Drs. Ross Greene and Stuart Ablon / CustomFlix:Explosive and noncompliant children and adolescents present significant challenges to parents and cause distress to all family members. Such children tend to be quite misunderstood and their behavioral challenges are often poorly addressed by traditional discipline strategies which conceive such challenges as attention-seeking, willful, and manipulative. Research suggests that such children may actually lack cognitive skills essential to handling frustration, solving problems, and mastering situations requiring flexibility and adaptability. In other words, the difficulties of these children may be best understood as a learning disability. Naturally, if a child is lacking crucial cognitive skills, the goal for parents and other adults is to teach those skills. In this two-hour program, Dr. Ross Greene (author of The Explosive Child) and his colleague, Dr. Stuart Ablon, help parents understand the specific cognitive skill deficits that can impair a child's capacities for flexibility and frustration tolerance and provide step-by-step guidance on their approach - known as Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) - for teaching these skills. This video features live interviews with parents of behaviorally challenging children and provides answers to many of the common questions parents have about the CPS approach.

Review Beyond The Standards Movement: Defending Quality Education in an Age of Test Scores / National Professional Resources, Inc.:Teachers and administrators will learn that a preoccupation with raising standards may have exactly the opposite effect. Alfie Kohn, nationally-renowned lecturer and author, offers a powerful argument against the obsession with standardized tests and the tendency to place so much emphasis on student performance that the process of learning becomes endangered. Instead of motivating students to learn and teachers to excel, it will create a system drive by coercion, a fear of failure, and unrelenting competition between students, teachers, and schools, all of which undermine excellence.
