Sid the Science Kid & Dive Olly Dive {Review & Giveaway}

Sharing is caring!


NCircle Entertainment, a sales, marketing and distribution company of family friendly entertainment recently sent me three great DVDs to share with my children. Two were Sid the Science Kid which was already a favorite in our household and the other was Dive Olly Dive, which we had never seen before.

843501003770 Sid The Bug Club DVD

Sid the Science Kid: The Bug Club features the following four fun espisodes:  Hello Doggie, Home Tweet Home, The Dirt on Dirt, and Don’t Forget the Leaves.

Sid the Science Kid Change Happens

Sid the Science Kid: Change Happens includes these four episodes: My Mushy Banana, My Shrinking Shoes, My Ice Pops and The Perfect Pancake.

Both of these Sid the Science Kid DVDs are packed full of fun science concepts, explained in interesting and totally entertaining ways.  My favorite part of this t.v. series is not only do you learn a lot and get young children interested in science, but you get lots of fun songs to get stuck in your head! I often times find myself singing some of the regular songs like  “I’m Looking for My Friends” and “Rug Time”. And no, this isn’t just when the show is on. They are just so catchy and fun! I think our favorite episodes are My Mushy Banana (and for the record, no I wouldn’t eat one) and The Perfect Pancake. I highly recommend this show . You can see it air each day on PBS, with five new episodes to look forward to this September!

Dive Olly Dive Ship Shape Sub DVD

Dive Olly Dive: Ship Shape Sub teaches kids fascinating facts about ocean life and important life lessons. This is a 3D animated underwater series that takes preschoolers under the sea with two young submarines-in-training, Olly and Beth.  We had never seen this series before since it airs on PBS Sprout and we don’t currently receive that channel, but I’m happy to say we got the chance to check it out. I love the vivid colors and having a fun new series that goes underwater. The characters are very likeable and it certainly entertains my boys. I look forward to seeing more of this series!

NCircle Entertainment has offered to give one of my readers a set of these three DVDs including Sid the Science Kid~Change Happens & The Bug Club and Dive Olly Dive Ship Shape Sub!

    I would LOVE to win this for my son – he loves both of these characters, but especially Sid!! We tried to rent a Sid DVD at the redbox for a month before we could ever get it – and he didn’t want to return it. He would LOVE this!! My son just started PreK, so we sing the “My mom’s cool, but now it’s time for school” chant from Sid – haha! He would be ecstatic!!

    Sid & Olly are two favorites in our house. The 5 year old loves Sid because he’s 5 too so she learns a lot watching the show. The two year old runs into the kitchen every morning yelling “Breakfast Time!!!” and he’s Olly in the bathtub having all the Toys “DIVE!!”

  152. Chrissy McPherson says

    My daughter watches this every morning before preschool but she gets on the bus 15 minutes before it goes off so she misses the end of the show 5 days a week. She would cherish this and beable to watch him when she got home at 12:00 with out missing the end. This would make our WEEK!
