Of particular interest to my own DS8 were Vi Hart's math videos: https://www.youtube.com/user/Vihart These are passionate, fast-paced and full of thought-provoking material. What's the best you've seen? DS10 (DYS, homeschooled) DD8 (DYS, homeschooled)

I must say, DD is currently reading the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and when I picked it up and started rereading it myself, I remembered why I loved it so and also was struck by what a fun book it is for young, goofy, curious minds. I mean, not exactly educational, but in a way yes.
