I love the Brain Quest cards. I use to use them all the time with my students when I taught second grade. The DVDs look fun too.

Great prize! My fav from the site is the Care Bears stuff books. Now as far as my daughters fav show on PBS. It's Curious George, It's a Big Big World and Word World. Both of my kids are PBS kids through and through.

Ooh. I totally want that 30 minute a day learning system. We like Curious George and Word World in this house.

The 30 minutes a day preschool would work perfectly for my children! Belle loves Super Why and Word World.

Jewel Quest looks like fun - we love the gem-matching games. Even my preschooler can play.

I really liked the PBS series books- My little guys loves animals and I am sure would enjoy "Moo Moo Who Are You" Also I think it would be fun how to see how they incorporate an elephant and giraffe visiting a farm into the story.

Around the World in 80 Days. We live for PBS. Curious George, Word World, Super Why! I love that I'm not worried about my kids asking for toys because of no commercials.

I think the boys would like the Cartoon Network All-Stars-that's the channel they watch

My favorite is "Grandma Tell Me About The Good Old Days". I think it's important to share with out children their family history. The stories, tales, traditions ect.

What a lot of wonderful educational materials they have on the site! I was really intrigued by the 30 minute a day learning system...it sounded really great. I loved the "a brighter bunch" games, too (dress up, puzzles, connect the dots)
Elmo and Curious George are my grandson's favorites.

I love the brain quest DVD's because, they provide informative information.

We love books around our house, so any new books would be wonderful!
Posted by: Amy | April 09, 2008 at 10:05 AM
Brain Quest is great for long trips in the car.
My favorite PBS show: Red Green. PBS just isn't the same without Mister Rogers.

We absolutely love PBS at our house. My daughter is in love with Caillou (she's 21 months) and wants to watch him all the time. My son (4 yrs old) switches his "favorite" between Super Why, Word World and Arthur (and sometimes Caillou). It can be a battle of wills to see whose show we watch.
I'm so pleased to discover this company. I've been looking for educational tools to help my son learn to read. I think the Caillou computer software will be great!
Posted by: Libby | April 09, 2008 at 10:09 AM
My son loves Thomas the Tank Engine so he'd love the game too.
My daughter's favorite show is Cyberchase!

My girl loves curious George on PBS we watch PBS everyday instead of disney movies and she even prefers it over baby enstien. I like the PBS KIDS™ Giant Touch–and–Learn Cards: Animal Sight Words.

I love the 30 minutes a day tool for preschoolers - that sounds just right for us!

I just love all of the BrainQuest products!
Posted by: Heather | April 09, 2008 at 10:37 AM
My favorite is the "Thomas and Friends: Special Delivery," because with the right motivation from Thomas I think my son could fly.
Posted by: Katie | April 09, 2008 at 10:38 AM
PBS KIDS™ Giant Touch–and–Learn Cards: Animal Sight Words (We're into learning to read)
My son's favorite is Super Why, but thankfully he likes Word World as well because I love it!
