can't get enough!, 2008-06-16
My four year old daughter watches this over and over. This video takes you from the architect, to the surveyor, to the finished house. The team narrating is a male and female and they speak to the kids as if they are as intelligent as they really are! This was so informative and interesting. I think it builds critical thinking for kids to see the steps and details of building a structure. I love having a young child who knows how a house is wired for electricity and plumbing, rather than thinking it just magically works. I recommend this highly. The adults might learn something too! I did!

Great video!, 2008-01-14
We are building a house right now, so I thought it would be fun for our kids to have this video. I was right! They LOVE to watch the video, then watch the exact same things going on at our own house. Highly recommended for anyone in the process of building a house!

Fun and educational for everyone!, 2007-03-07
My 5 year old son has always loved big trucks and construction machines so I thought we'd get this DVD for his collection. There is so much more to this program than just big trucks! I was surprised at how much I learned about everything that goes into building a house. This is definitely a video for the whole family. The hosts do a great job of showing ALL the steps that go into building a house in an entertaining way. They never talk down to the audience, but are easy to understand. It's so nice to have a DVD that really explains things and teaches instead of just filling the screen with pictures. My son loves it and so do his friends (and his mommy and daddy like it too....)

This is a fun DVD!, 2005-03-27
I loved this DVD! My husband and I watched it first, to make sure it was appropriate for our children (ages 5 and 7). It was! Our son and daughter watch it at least 3 times a week and share it with their buddies. My son is really into tools and dresses up like the workers in the show. The main characters, Gwen and Danny, talk at a concept level that children can understand, yet it was interesting to me, too. There is a lot of information packed into a half hour, so children will definitely not be bored. A winner!
