There are many quality shows out there, and for more than just pre-schoolers. Let's start with the obvious...PBS. I think they probably have the best selection of educational shows. Yes, many are for younger children, but there also shows for older elementary and even high school students. Here are some of my favorites (in no particular order).
- Sid the Science Kid
- Cyberchase
- Wild Kratts
- Word World
- Zoom
- Super Why
- The Electric Company
- Sci Girls
- Fetch!
- Word Girl
- Biz Kid$
- Inside Nature's Giants
- Wide Angle
- Nature
- POV
- NOVA
There are other channels, as well, which have very educational shows. Qubo has Time Blazers, and The Zula Patrol. The History Channel periodically runs episodes of Gettysburg, Vietnam in HD, and WWII in HD. The Discovery Channel has Planet Earth, Curiosity, and of course Mythbusters. With a little research, and the help of a DVR, the right program can be ready to watch whenever you are. Many shows are also available for online veiwing. So, go ahead, plop the youngsters down in front of the "boob tube" to watch and learn while you live the good life.
What are your favorite educational tv shows?
