5.0 out of 5 stars Illustrates the role that forces and motion play in creating theme park rides, February 15, 2009

This review is from: The Science of Disney Imagineering: Trajectory Classroom Edition [Interactive DVD] (Interactive DVD)

Disney is one of the world's most trusted names when it comes to children's entertainment. What is less well known is the Disney commitment to high quality, kid friendly educational materials. "The Science of Disney Imagineering" is an impressive series of instructional DVDs specifically created for young viewers in grades 5 through 8 with a 30 minute running time. The three DVD productions focus upon a single science concept. "The Science of Disney Imagineering: Gravity" investigates the science and nature of the force behind such thrill rides as roller coasters and other major Disney theme park attractions. "The Science of Disney Imagineering: Levers & Pulleys" focuses on the mechanics of how Disney theme park elements such as Dumbo the Flying Elephant and other remarkable machines work. "The Science of Disney Imagineering: Trajectory" illustrates the role that forces and motion play in creating theme park rides such as the California Adventure's California Scramin' and Toy Story Midway Mania. Each of these superbly produced, informed and informative DVDs are enhanced with 'try it yourself' experiments that children can do to reinforce learning the key principles and concepts presented. All three of the "The Science of Disney Imagineering" titles are enthusiastically recommended for school and community library DVD collections, as well as an ideal supplement for home schooling science studies curricula.

My 9 year liked this DVD so much he wanted to see others in the series but he didn't ask to see the same one over and over again. I reserve purchasing DVD's to programs the kids want to watch more than once which is why I give it 4 stars instead of 5. If they came in a reasonably priced complete set I might buy them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exciting Science!, October 2, 2009

I love this series, and more importantly, my kids love this series. This is absolutely the best DVD series for teaching science. Exactly the right amount of repetition of the key concepts in so many fun and clever forms. The host is excellent - not a stuffy lab coat scientist but a hip, fun Imagineer who might just have the coolest job in the world. A+!
