Sunday this week was a sad day. It was the day that Mike and I finished watching Planet Earth. No more episodes?? Are you kidding me?
I know that everyone knows about Planet Earth already, but if you haven’t watched this documentary, you absolutely must! What’s best is that it’s good for all ages. My friend Jenny, mother of two (two and four years old) reported that they rewound and rewatched the shark eating a seal scene about twenty times. I don’t know if she’s trying to do scare therapy or what, but they actually seemed to enjoy it, so who am I to judge?
The documentary is fascinating. Mike and I had to pause it over and over and over again to discuss what we were actually learning about animals and our planet. I can’t remember the last time any documentary made me do that. There were just such interesting things that I couldn’t possibly not talk about them right. that. second.
It’s beautiful. It’s educational. It’s timeless. Go out and borrow it from the library, rent it, or buy it straight up.
It really is absolutly inccredible. And…almost as amazing as the documentary itself is watching the making of planet earth. It is so amazing to see how they captured all those images. The cinematography is out of this world!
I love the series too. It’s one of the few things i feel absolutely great about showing my 4-year-old on TV. And I am amazed by it every time. The good thing is you can kind of watch it again and again!
we loved this series so much, even my little kids love it!
