Secret Millionaires Club Volume 1

I particularly love the theme song and this kept my kids entertained while educating them, deff will be getting the other volumes.

I will warn that the music in this video is a bit catchy and will get stuck in your head, but overall is nicely done. The money lessons in the video are, in my opinion, basic life lessons that each child should be taught. This is a fun format for kids to learn. My 3 year old likes to watch this video. She may not understand everything yet, but she is learning from it.

This series kept my 8 and 6-year olds reasonably entertained with stories of four kids, a robot, and their mentor Warren Buffet, who help out their school & struggling small businesses in their community. While somewhat light on traditional educational aspects, it does work in several definitions of business-terms ("marketing", "inventory management") and does a solid job presenting a lot of struggles that small business owners face (a new restaurant unable to attract customers, a disorganized pet shop, local newspaper and music stores needing to adapt to the Internet, etc). Warren spouts a lot of his famous aphorisms, and the need to learn & recover from mistakes/setbacks is stressed repeatedly. To the show's credit, they resist any magical/unrealistic solutions to the dilemmas - Warren is not going to write out any checks to fix the problem. The series isn't as amazing (entertainment or education-wise) as "Magic School Bus" or "Liberty Kids", but it's the only time I've come across something which highlights what goes on in the Main Street businesses that line our streets and employ many parents.

This video allows the viewer to relate to the characters in the video. This forum facilitates a desire to master money management and the confidence to move forward with creativity in investing, saving, and earning money. My kind love it and continue to talk about the video and it's concepts days after we all watch it. Oh, and we watch it every couple weeks, too!

Hard to follow. No lessons on savings, interest, etc. Very hard to follow. A lot of skating boarding and hype. Did focus on selling a product and doing the work to sell. The stusdents hated it and it taught them absolutely nothing. I cannot believe this DVD received such high ratings, which I reviewed prior to purchasing. This is the worst product I've ever ordered in my life.

My 6th grader didn't like this dvd. He said it's unrealistic. It does not really teach the fundamentals for students that have no financial background.

I believe it is never too early to start to teach children the importance on finances. I purchased this for my 8 and 5 y/o. they loved it! the shows are entertaining with lessons built right into the cartoon. I found them quoting lines from the shows when playing!!

Who ever put this together didn't do Warren Buffett any favors. I showed this to my grandchildren and they not only didn't like it, they didn't get anything out of it. Even I had some difficulty figuring out the "lessons". The concept is wonderful and it's a shame that these areas are not routinely taught in schools, but unfortunately, this product is not going to help many kinds...
