ace and friends thoughts: I was interested to see how all three of my test *subjects* would like this DVD. Although the Rock N Learn Money & Making Change DVD is geared toward children over the age of 6, all of my children (ages, 7, 6 and 3) had a great time viewing this *show*. My 7 and 6 year old kids loved skip counting along with Penny and Bill by 2's and 5's. My three year old thought Penny and Bill were fun to dance and sing along with as well as count the number of coins individually on the television. After we  watched *screened* this movie, the kids wanted to get their piggy banks out and count all of their coins. Bottom line: The kids found it interesting enough to apply it to themselves, so that to me is two three thumbs up! Success. 

A little side note:  My oldest daughter actually did a performance at school using the President & US Government CD. It was such a great way to learn all of the presidents. Plus the songs are super catchy and fun to sing along with...
