Some topics are just awkward as a parent to discuss with your kids, and other general topics of health and hygiene are just listened to better when it is coming from a third-party source but still through the filter of mom or dad. Enter MarshMedia with their health information videos which I was thrilled to get a chance to review and their brand new Homeschool Special.

They offer their videos on a subscription basis, and their pricing is now available for homeschoolers as well. They currently have about 54 videos available. For the purpose of this review, I had access to the online subscription where I could watch any or all of the videos available.

Here is a glimpse of some of what I saw. As you can see, the videos cover a wide array of health-related topics and even has one about unwelcomed teasing:





I logged onto the site and went through the process of choosing a movie to watch. I decided that it would be best if I pre-viewed anything before showing it to my child. I readily called my 10-year-old over to watch the apple with the eyes on nutrition, but when I started watching the one on puberty, I allowed my daughter to watch over my shoulder and to "overhear" the video instead of insisting that she sit and watch with me or on her own. It was a lot less awkward that way, but honestly, the video did a great job of explaining puberty.

What Did We Think?

The videos are high quality with catchy songs that help the child remember key points of taking care of their body. I was told before agreeing to review this product that the company was accustomed to creating and presenting these videos to public schools, but I found that they were very adaptable and appropriate to use in homeschooling as well. As a homeschooler, I am concerned that my child not be exposed to any of the "agenda" that sometimes infiltrates public schools on the topic of puberty. I was pleased that what I saw seemed to be presented in a fact-based method with no overt opinions either way on the topics. It certainly is a load off to have a short video explain certain things to your child that as a parent I can chime in on whenever necessary.
