If you have been a loyal reader of Mommy Ramblings, you will remember last year we did a review for an episode of Buckalope Elementary series. The episode we reviewed back then was Career Day. Recently I was sent a DVD Boxed Set of episodes 1-6, a CD of music, videos, karaoke and sing-along of each original song and a CD of the Buckalope Elementary Soundtrack.
Buckalope Elementary is an adorable puppet educational series created for kids 5-9 or grades K-3. Each episode explores different aspects of character and career education. The episodes are curriculum based and feature an original song.
The puppets make the episodes very entertaining and captivating for kids and keeps them focused on the content. The episodes included in this set are:
- Interests, Hobbies & Careers
- Self-Esteem
- Career Day
- Responsibility
- Teamwork
- The Science Fair
The episodes are not long in length so kids stay engaged and do not feel overwhelmed. Also the length makes them perfect to use in the classroom as well to incorporate into a lesson plan.
