Movie Reviews of Awesome Whales For Kids DVDMovie Review: great whale watching footage Summary: 5 Stars
I was doing a homeschool coop unit on whales and this DVD really added a lot to our study. We wanted to take a trip and actually go whale watching. However, limited time and finances dictated otherwise. But, had we taken the actual trip we still wouldn't have been guaranteed a sighting like you are with this DVD. It was fun watching the whales interact with the folks on the boats. Plus, there were many different encounters that added a lot to our knowlege of what kind of whale behaviour can be expected.
Humorously, at the end of the program there are these whale sounds. So, if you leave your DVD player on longer than the recording, it continually plays whale sounds! This has caught me off guard on more than one occasion wondering what on earth that noise was...it's actually nice to listen to for a few minutes but it does repeat over and over again so you'll eventually tire of it.
Summary of Awesome Whales For Kids DVDThis is not the average program about whales. We spent more than 11,000 hours recording every behavior of whales in one of the best places in the world to see whales. Awesome Whales For Kids is the most exciting, most unusual and certainly the most entertaining 67 minutes we encountered. Your children will feel like they are on the boat watching as: a baby whale plays with seaweed and a plastic bucket, a humpback whale lifts her 12,000 pound calf out of the water on her back, a humpback whale blows on people looking down at her, the humpback whale named Colt trumpets loudly when another whale swims over and puts its chin on his back, a humpback slams its tail (13 feet wide) on the water right beside the boat, other calves imitate their mother?s behaviors! Just when you think it can?t get more exciting; you?ll join us and share the experience of one of the most entertaining, amusing and unbelievable meetings of whales and humans. Stand at the railing as four humpback whales circle the boat and begin singing! You see the whales in what can only be described as a game of tag or at the very least, an attempt to always be closer to the boat than all the others. We knew the names of two of them: Colt and Stub. It was not surprising because Colt is well known for coming up to boats and getting as close as he can. It is very special to have a whale curious and close to the boat. It is a fantastic experience to also hear their excitement in being there too! Your children will want to see this one again and again! So will you! Brought to you by The Whale Video Company, the producers of Salt & Friends: Humpback Whales With Names.
