Every night my children (ages 4 and 5) ask us all kinds of fascinating questions. Some of them are about things that I have not thought about in a long time. Some of them arent easy to answer in a way that they can comprehend.

After supper and my somewhat not successful explanation of onomatopoeia, I turned to YouTube to attempt to find a video that might assist my children better comprehend what onomatopoeia is. Thats where I discovered this adorable and brief video about onomatopoeia. Ill alert you, the tune is type of catchy (if youre a five-year-old)..

On an associated note, Next Vista for Learning hosts an excellent video explanation of onomatopoeia. The video was produced by a high school trainee for one of Next Vistas numerous student video production contests.
