Learning The Planets With The Planet Song

There are plenty of ways to teach your kids colors, numbers, the alphabet, etc. and that’s because they’re the foundational aspects of our culture. However, it’s also important to teach kids about the broader world and universe in which they live and one really challenging aspect of this can be teaching your kids the names of the planets. In fact, before I watched this video from Oh My Genius, I confess – I didn’t know their names, myself.

I thought this was a wonderful way to teach kids the planets. What other complex subjects could benefit from this kind of treatment, do you think?
