Grandpa's movies - Some DVD's and Blueray ideas

I live movies.  All kinds of movies.  But, I'm writing about and for my grandkids, not me.  What makes going to Grandpa's special?

And...in one area - videos.  I'm not an anti-entertainment kinda guy.  But so much on TV and DVD is just falsehood, or exaggeration,  or propaganda - oh, read it as 'crap'.  There's got to be a better way.  Not perfect, but interesting for them and you.

The physical world has plenty to be both instructional and interesting...honesty interesting. Immediately when talking about the natural world it offers questions of origins (creation) because some offer an evolutionary scheme as a crazy southern evangelist offers salvation - his way and only his way.  Just be mindful.  And, we may not agree on what is too 'evangelistic', but....

Also, make sure you purchase the proper format for your machine.  Right now it's DVD and Blue-ray.  Also remember the young the child, the shorter the attention span.  :-)

There are a few worth talking about.  The BBC series, "Planet Earth", narrated by David Attenbourgh.  It is an 11-part series shot entirely in high-definition: From Pole to Pole, Mountains, Fresh Water, Caves, Deserts, Ice Worlds, Great Plains, Jungles, Shallow Seas, Seasonal Forests, Ocean Deep.  Stunning.

Another set that came the same year is "Nature: The World of Nature Set".  This six-disc box set includes Europe's Enchanted Lands, Africa's Incredible Hulks, Alaska, Antarctica, Wild Side of Paradise, and Extreme Lands of the Americas.

I have grandsons, and I know they love trains of all sorts.  They are guys, after all!  Videos like Real Trains for Kids is fun.  Or Train Crazy Kids or Locomotion - The Amazing World of Trains.

Add airplanes.

OK, these are a few ideas.  But...what are yours?  Let me know.
