Review Little Explorers: The World of Art, Music and Dance, Vol. 1 / Cassidy Video Productions:In the kid-vid marketplace, there are few films enjoyed by parent and preschooler alike. This delightful 30-minute program, which is as beautiful to hear as it is to see, is one of them. Engaging for infants and toddlers, the film is based on research that exposure to music, art, and dance at a young age will develop in children a natural enthusiasm for the arts as well as sharpen their creativity and critical-thinking skills. From Monet to Michelangelo, images of works by classical artistss segue slowly into live-action footage, such as that of preschoolers pirouetting in ballet slippers. Harpists, dancers, drummers, and pianists share their talents, and concertos by Vivaldi, Handel, Mozart, and others fill the background. In one scene, a skillful potter molds a lump of clay into a work of art; in another, youngsters try their hand at molding Play-Doh into their own masterpieces. Vincent van Gogh's famous painting Sunflowers gently introduces three youngsters blending watercolor paints into vivid designs. Parents and caregivers can use the film with children as a starting point for simple discussions of favorite colors, musical instruments, and dances. It is also a perfect transitional activity between playtime and quiet time. Don't be surprised if your kids are inspired to try artistic expressions of their own. [+]
-Lynn Gibson This unique video is the first and only one of its kind to expose young children to the arts in a manner designed specifically for them. This video captivates children through fascinating performances, enhanced by exciting special effects, to a variety of musicians, dancers and artists who are both professionals and children. In addition, your child will be introduced to nine great works of art by such masters as DaVinci, Van Gogh, Monet and many more. This video will enable your child to discover many aspects of the arts and will open up new worlds to explore. It is never too early to plant the seeds of interest and curiosity in a child.

Review Made in China:An award winning documentary film, directed and written by Karin Lee, "Made in China" looks at adopted children from China by families in Canada. The children, age 5 - 13, are predominantly girls and are disarmingly frank and poignantly insightful as they tell their own stories and speak about racial difference and biological identity. Many of the children live with Caucasian families and face the challenge of making sense of their identity and their roots at a very young age. Their stories reflect their inner conflicts and how they have come to terms with their hybrid identities. Sometimes tough, sometimes vulnerable, the children reveal the joys and pain of living in a visibly adoptive family. Made in China is a moving portrait of several remarkable children and their adoptive families whose stories are powerful, sad, humorous and inspirational. "Made in China" has won THE CANADA AWARD At the 16th Annual Geminis, equivalent TO THE EMMY AWARDS, "Best Feature Docu! mentary" at the San Diego Asian Film Festival.
