Aside from being avid football fanatics we don’t watch much TV. I limit the girls TV choices to a select few shows on select channels. So, I was eager to try SmartKidz Media Library for Homeschoolers from SmartKidz Media.
We received a full year subscription to review. The site is jam packed with videos on almost any topic you can think of. Most all of the media is delivered through video format, however, there are some items available in study guide formats. These are some of the main topics:
World of Discovery
Music and Fine Arts
Baby Signs Programs
Quick Find Study Guides
Learning Special Needs
Living Skills Program
Within the main topics there is a huge selection of subjects covered including:
Animals & Wildlife Collections
Documentaries & Culture Collections
Health & Fitness
History Titles
Lifestyles & Cuisine
Science
Travel & Adventure: World Wide Discovery Collections
Cooking Instruction
Classical Music Collections
Cultural Music Collections
Cultural Music: Vol 2
Jazz and Blues Classics Collections
Relaxation Music Collections
Mighty E-Book Collection
Sign Language Collection
Special Needs Learning
Living Skills
Singing
Fun Zone
With so much to choose from you just need to make sure you have a reliable internet connection and you will be set. You can view the media on any type of device from computers to tablets so this makes a great resource for on the go learning too!
This is a secular site with the mention here and there of evolution. I did not find this as a detractor from the media offered as I previewed the material that the girls were able to view ahead of time. I do love that the girls can browse the media ad free, that is a huge plus for me! Montana and McKenzie were on this site a lot so that was nice to not have to worry about them seeing anything questionable.
Montana normally stuck to viewing the media about the animals and McKenzie would be on the Mighty Ebook section and the fun zone. We all enjoyed the media on how to make Japanese food, especially making Sushi. I personally enjoyed the Classical music selections the most. I like to have music playing in the background while we are working on school. This content gave us access to new and old media alike.
I definitely think you should check out this amazing product for yourself! I know we will be utilizing it for the rest of our subscription and more! Be sure to check out what my CrewMates thought of this product by clicking the banner below.
