This great DVD will keep
you entertained for almost an hour.
One of
our personal favorites, this nostalgic DVD includes segments which
illustrates how a watch works, how the ear works, how the eye works,
and one of the most innovative explanations by Tommy Telephone who puts
together all 433 parts of a rotary telephone and a great movie about how our
eyes view the motion picture. This is simply a
delightful selection for not only the younger set, but for us oldsters too.
How It Works Series - The five movies in this
series offer a refresher to many of us and a wonderful educational
opportunity for your children and grandchildren. All of these movies offer a
great way for you to talk to your children about how certain parts of their
body works, like the ears and eyes, how their hair grows, why some people
are tall and some are short.
How A Watch Works (1949) - Offers a wonderful, informative, but easy to
understand demonstration of the basic design and operation of a watch,
including stop-motion animation showing a watch being assembled from many
parts. The photography is crisp, clear and for kids who love to take things
apart and put them back together fascinating. For 18 and a half minutes you
will be mesmerized by the intricate workings of the watch.
How The Ear Functions is a fascinating 1940 movie that offers excellent
animation and shows the structure and function of the human hearing system,
all in only 11 minutes, but does so marvelously you will want more. You will
be amazed at how the ear we so take for granted does so much; is so
interconnected to other parts of our body; and how it can influence those
parts.
How The Eye Functions - A beautifully animated 11 minute, 1941 movie that
offers an excellent detailed explanation of the human eye and eyesight. You
will be amazed at the animation and details shown in this wonderful, helpful
movie that offers you and your children an opportunity to discuss their
eyes. Why not combine the movie with a game. You can take several items out
for them to look at and then have them describe what they saw to you after
you put it behind your back.
Just Imagine - Is a 1947 movie with one of the most innovative explanations
by an animated character in film history, Tommy Telephone. Watch him put
together all 433 parts of a rotary telephone. I loved watching the animated
Tommy show the man in the movie how he would get the "telephone" together.
Wonderful animation, and you can also show the "techno" crowd of today how
telephones were "back in the day". No redial, no call forwarding, text
messaging, just think of all the discussions that will ensue after spending
10 minutes and 27 seconds watching this movie.
How You See It - A 1936, 8 minute film, which shows how our eyes view the
motion picture. A great inside look into the motion picture industry. It
offers wonderful insight into the process our eyes go through to make it
possible for us to view what amounts to still images as the movies we do.
