"Science is Real" and "Meet the Elements"

Two songs and videos about science for children, written and performed by They Might Be Giants. The almost anthemic "Science is Real" and a stroll through the periodic table in "Meet the Elements".

They Might Be Giants have been around a long time - since the early 1980s - and have found their niche in music for TV and especially for kids. If you go to YouTube you will find many more science songs with an edge. Hope your kids enjoy them!
