World of Invention (according to Wallace & Gromit)...

Well, after quite an emotional week, I thought I would share this...

My kids love inventions and creations. Richard Hammond's Blast Lab and Scrapheap Challenge are programs of choice in this household. Two examples of entertaining presentations of Science and Engineering for kids.

Just recently, we came across this:


My daughter discovered Wallace & Gromit via iView; the "digital view as you wish" option from the ABC here in Australia. She really appreciated the story and the animation. I often used Wallace and Gromit for teaching animation years ago and have been a big fan of Nick Park's work. It is good to see it is still well appreciated.

So, some handy holiday viewing! Educational and darn entertaining!
