It’s a good bet that any American kid growing up in the ’70s or ’80s learned some elementary lesson from the seminal musical series Schoolhouse Rock!. Airing from 1973 to 1984 (and often revived), the ABC Saturday morning shorts effortlessly introduced kids to grammar, science, multiplication, money, and American history–three minutes at a time. In one smart, comprehensive 2-disc set, all 46 songs and plenty of extras are collected. The four creators developed the series slowly, a welcome diversion from their advertising agency jobs, and ended up taking home four Emmys over the years. The background material includes 10 audio commentaries and a making-of feature for the new song, “I’m Gonna Send Your Vote to College.” The DVD subtitle option is a great bonus for those who need to know every word from such favorites as “Three Is a Magic Number,” “Interjections,” “I’m Just a Bill,” and “Conjunction Junction.” (Ages 3 and older) –Doug Thomas

School House Rock
The box was in the original, unopened/brand new condition. I was very happy with my purchase and with the speedy service I received. The little one this was purchased for, loves to watch it!


Really love it!!
This video is wonderful. It has all the clips I enjoyed when I was a kid and some new ones that are equally entertaining and educational. My five-year-old loves to watch it and it has already helped with our math facts and singing other parts of our assignments.


Schoolhouse Rock...a timeless tool
I got this for my 3rd grader's classroom to use. My son comes home telling me about how they use it for the various subjects they're studying,singing the songs that I still remember from 30+(was it that long?)years ago when cartoons were only on Saturday mornings. It was more than worth the price-an excellent bargain. Thanks!


Music Aids Learning
This complete collection is fun and has an easy to navigate menu. A great deal for the price. I'll always remember the Preamble to the Constitution!


Schoolhouse Rock! (Special 30th Anniversary Edition)
I am so happy that you have this product for purchase. My children are now adults but grew up on "Schoolhouse Rock". I thought it would be wonderful for my grandchildren to have this product, but never imagined that I would have found it or it was still available. While looking over the products at Amazon.com on-line, there it was. My grandchildren also love to read, so purchases from you will be many. I love your on-line site and the many products you make available to your customers at prices that are affordable. The way the economy has taken a turn for the worse, your prices and the many sales you have are a blessing to many. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
