Horrible Histories
Its a kids show on CBBC, it's Python for kids, but educational. They did a stint on the BBC proms last year. Oh how I wish this kind of teaching had been around when I had to learn history.
Clip below is the hour long BBC prom, defy any of you not to learn some history from this highly entertaining 'kids' hour. Hard to believe that apart from the orchestra there are only 6 performers.

Re: Horrible Histories
Have watched quite a few hours of the programme with my God-daughter while over in the UK -it's very zany and funny but educational as you say. I would have loved it as a kid I'm sure.:)

Re: Horrible Histories
Oh i love this programme, don't even need a kid with me to watch it, love all the unusual facts you get from it too
|
I love history but hated it at school. The main reason I hated it was the teachers. I can't get enough of it now

Re: Horrible Histories
I took my son to see it on stage, it was amazing and had a 3D show with it as well.

I quite enjoyed history at school (studied to O level & passed) & still enjoy it now. As I see it, if you don't understand how our land & culture evolved you'll fail to grasp the concept of being British.

On thinking about it though Horrible Histories is all about the uniquely British sense of humour so you are undoubtedly right and the programme is a double edged sword in a certain way. |
