Watching this DVD would make a great family activity. It will spark an important conversation about the world we live in.
The video, "If the World Were a Village: A Story about the World's People" is entertaining to watch and guaranteed to create a shift in the way you see the world.
Here is the synopsis:
At this moment, there are more than six billion people on the planet! It is so hard to imagine so many people at one time -- but what if we imagine the whole world as a village of 100 people?
By exploring the lives of the 100 villagers, children will discover that life in other nations is often very different from their own. If the World Were a Village will encourage viewers to learn about our global village.
For example, out of 100 people 61 would be from Asia, 13 from Africa, 5 from North America, 8 from Central and South America, 12 from Europe and 1 from Oceania (Australia, South Pacific, etc).
This is a must see DVD for your family. I also think this would be a great video to show in classrooms. You can buy it at Amazon.com
