Do you have one? I think it's been a while since we talked about these or updates.

I thought it would be helpful to compile another list.

The Happy Scientist is one of our favorites here. I really like the videos and wish I could find more sites with videos like this all in one place.

I also like Ellen McHenry's Basement Workshop. Lots of fun stuff there if you click around. I like the Rock Hopper Game

looks interesting. I haven't looked around there much, but there are a lot of experiments and a few videos.

ETA: We have watched about all of the videos- check out the floating orb video. It is really cool- my kids are dying to try it.

We have also made a lot of slime using his water/liquid starch/glue recipe.
Works great. Polymer, anyone?

Through Apologia's website, you can sign up for the Weekly Lab report, which has videos of different experiments.

This week's is Making a polymer ball

There are apparently a lot of these videos on youtube through The Homeschool Scientist.

I am loving the Eureka cartoon videos for physics - I'm teaching in our co-op. Anyway, they are all accessible from this which links you to them individually on Youtube.

NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) - love the general weather graphics. So cool to follow. There is also a nice education section.

The kids and I are currently enjoying this great YouTube channel:Minute Physics
It's a series of short little animations that explain various concepts in physics. Check them out!
Oh, and here is their Facebook page, if you'd rather go that route:Minute Physics on Facebook

WatchKnowLearn

This site has TONS of educational videos on many topics, not just science.
The nice thing here is you can set a filter to search for videos suitable for specific age ranges.

We watched the science of Thanksgiving, which was amusing. Why didn't I have a chemistry teacher like that?

Chemistry at About.com

I am linking the Halloween experiment videos, but there are so many more here... like the fireballs you can hold in your hand. This is the stuff of my ds's dreams...
