WatchKnow.org
Well free doesn’t always mean better, but free and more video resources can be better for children/youth.  WatchKnow.org is a website with a compilation of free videos  for primary thru secondary aged students organized with a wide range of topics from sciences to  history, math to life skills. The videos are carefully organized by subject with the capability of searching by age using a slider tool on the web page to narrow your search.  Videos are also rated. They also provide a video of how to use the website for ease of use.
What a fabulous resource for instruction, building background knowledge or reinforce educational concepts to your children and youth.
