Super fun! submitted by wendylv on August 29, 2013, 9:14pm We used these songs with our science jeopardy team and loved them. The songs are great but paired with the videos makes the whole package a home run. Highly recommended!!

Here Comes Science submitted by SBNB on June 19, 2014, 1:12pm It’s a nice CD, but the songs aren’t as catchy as some other children’s music. I like the songs “What Is A Shooting Star” and “Cells”.

They might be Giants! submitted by tbbrown76 on July 13, 2014, 4:30pm Not baseball. but good science music!

Gentle, Funny Education submitted by Meginator on June 17, 2018, 8:38am This album is a lot of fun, and it’s definitely not just for younger listeners despite its educational mission. They Might Be Giants are perfectly suited for this kind of music, using humor to deliver gentle science lessons that stick more effectively than most formal schooling. Longtime fans will especially appreciate an update to “Why Does the Sun Shine” that incorporates scientists’ most recent understanding of solar science. I can’t get enough of this album.

Great use! submitted by Tedchem15 on June 18, 2023, 1:10pm What a great item to use - especially to learn science for the first time!

Makes science fun submitted by tcramer318 on August 4, 2023, 10:38pm A fun collection about science from one of my favorite bands. In my head, theirs is the correct version of Davy Crockett. I also recommend the DVD or the videos on their youtube channel for anyone who likes the songs!
