hsmom27 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 If anyone has one or can point me to one, I'd appreciate it. I tried searching, but came up blank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewelma Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 David Attenborough has made many many docos that are absolutely wonderful. Series topics (not titles, sorry): Mammals, Birds, Reptiles, Oceans, Insects, Plants, and there are about 5 other series. Each series is between 5 and 10 hours long. We have them in our library. They are wonderful. Really really wonderful. Ruth in NZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsquirrel Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 We found Charles Darwin and the Tree of Life to be great. We did a whole unit at the beginning of the year on evolution. It is also a David Attenborough documentary. Netflix does have Life of Mammals available as a download. Planet Earth is only available on disc.

redsquirrel Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Oh, I just remembered, Michael Pollan has a documentary called "The Botany of Desire" that was very good. However, you MUST preview it before you decide to show it to your kids. It does have a section about marijuana. I personally didn't find anything worrisome in that section but I am quite sure other people would. It can be split up into separate viewing sections very easily. It is about human's relationship with 4 plants. Each plant has a distinct section that can be a stand alone viewing. It would be easy to skip the marijuana section if you desired.
