Best Educational Television Programs

I love using tv and the internet to supplement my homeschooling.  I know many "homeschoolers" are anti-television but I am not one of them.  Here is my list of favorites :)

1.  Magic School Bus- sometimes these episodes are on TLC so I have my DVR set to record them whenever they happen to be on.  Magic School Bus is also available on the internet if you don't have cable or a tv.  Magic school bus focuses on teaching science.

2.  Martha Speaks- I LOVE this show and actually enjoy watching it.  It teaches children vocabulary words.  My 4 year old Hannah has a huge vocabulary as a result of watching this program.  This program is on PBS and also available on the internet.

3.  Super Why- This is a good program for beginning phonic, it uses classic children stories which draw children right in.  This program is also on PBS and available on the internet.

4.  Curious George-  This program teaches many thing, science, logic and mathematics.  This program is also on PBS and available on the internet.

5.  Cyber Chase- teaches more complex math problems for children to solve.  This program is also on PBS and available on the internet.

With so many great educational shows on television, I try to limit my kids t.v. watching to these shows.
