Editorial Reviews

When Wanda's little brother accidentaly port-a-shrinks Ms. Frizzle and the kids, they end up trapped in a bathroom with no way out! But using the materials at hand, and some very constructive ideas, they're soon building hair-roller towers and Band-Aid bridges as they discover something surprising: the power of improvising!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Science-Bad Babysitting, August 5, 2000

This review is from: The Magic School Bus - Under Construction [VHS] (VHS Tape)

My three children love the Magic School Bus Videos and have advanced their science knowledge beyond their ages by watch quality childrens programming like the Magic School Bus series. This video continues the adventure by taking Ms. Frizzles class out of the classroom (no surprise there) and into Wanda's house where they are charged with watching Wanda's diaper clad brother William, while her Mom finishes up a business teleconference. The adventure begins with William accidently shrinking the class with the shrinkascope! Tape gets high marks for contruction elements (contructing a bridge out of gum drops and hair pins but extremely low marks for child care. (William is left alone with Liz during most of the film.)
