Are you tired of watching Dora, Diego & Scooby-Doo?

If you answered yes to any/all of these questions, then have I got the perfect giveaway for you!

Curiosity Quest DVD.

Curiosity Quest is an award-winning PBS show, designed for the whole family, which is now available on DVD!

Curiosity Quest is an upbeat educational program for the whole family that explores subjects that viewers are curious about. (From Pet adoption to living in the circus)

In each show, host Joel Greene, ventures on a quest to answer viewer's letters. Each quest takes the audience on location for an unscripted, hands-on, educational exploration.

Curiosity Quest also has a special series called Curiosity Quest Goes Green that has explored Water Treatment Facilities, Landfills, and the Recycling of bottles, cans, plastic, glass and turning them into new products (such as Green Toys).

Thanks to the kind folks at Green Toy, my family and I were able to watch these fascinating and educational shows on DVD. (Thanks Green Toy)

We learned:

• The difference between a dump and a sanitary landfill
• That methane gases are actually captured and processed
• That landfill's don't have the manpower to separate all the recyclables from the trash which is why it is very important that we separate our recyclables at home!
• That 5% of the world's population produces 40% of the world's waste (Sadly, that 5% would be the residents of the USA)

My 8 year old son loved the show. He was actually disappointed when it was over. He said that it was too short.

The host, Joel Greene, is entertaining and funny. The show itself combines fun facts with upbeat music and topics geared to inquisitive minds, both young and old(er). I would highly recommend tuning in.

Now you and your family have the chance to win the Curiosity Quest Goes Green DVD and learn for yourself all about composting, recycling, water treatment, and much much more!
