Summary: This movie is great for teachers of intermediate elementary grades.
Comment: This movie was a great way to add more information to a lesson on the planets given to third graders. It had enough pictures and interesting facts to hold the attention of my class of 23 nine year olds. It is only about 30 minutes long, so the kids were able to keep their attention on the movie and write facts they learned in their science notebooks. This movie is probably a bit much for very young children, but interesting for older children and adults.

Summary: Fantastic for young and old!
Comment: My grandson, who is now 5, has watched this video over and over since he was 3. He practically has it memorized! He has had an interest in space and stars since he was a year old. For anyone interested in fun facts about our universe, this is a great video! Our whole family enjoys it! Well narrated!

Summary: not for young children
Comment: This Eyewitness video, like the couple others we have viewed with our preschoolers, is interesting for us adults, but not at all entertaining enough for young children. Too much talking! Not enough action! And the video techniques used (like completely unrelated objects combined with each other in artsy ways; for example video of planets superimposed onto video of museum-style rooms to make it appear as if each planet inhabits its own room in the museum) just confuse literal-minded preschoolers, who believe the planets actually are in those rooms and are undoubtedly getting a really mixed up idea about planet size.
