    BBC has a history of chemistry documentary that we found really engaging, Chemistry: A Volatile History

    The series How It's Made always catches DS' interest and is good for bite size watching (~3 segments per half hour)

    Brain Games and How it's Made are great for this age group.

    Connections is also great. And Neil Degrasse Tyson has an earlier physics series (not nearly as polished as Cosmos, but really interesting) that's streaming on Netflix... but I can't remember the name off hand.

    Thanks for all the suggestions! We have Amazon and Roku and with an excellent library system at our disposal, a lot of these will be on our summer list. As usual, a treasure trove of material for me smile
    PS: Thanks for the warning to preview stuff- we have an over emotional and sensitive type of kid here and I need to remember to do it.

    David Macauley made videos of several of his books (Castle, Cathedral, and a few others) that my kids have enjoyed.
