More and more parents are investing in a headrest monitor for their car so their children can watch DVDs while on the road. They are thinking of creative ways to use that time to not only entertain kids with DVDs, but give them some learning time too. Here are some of the educational types of DVDs that parents are playing on their car headrest monitors during long or short car rides.

Biographies on DVD

Parents are finding DVDs featuring biographies of famous people including politicians, inventors, scientists, artists and other historical figures. On a quick car ride to the grocery store, a kid can learn a little about the life of an American hero or a world explorer. This is a way for kids to learn something outside of school and for parents to get a little peace and quiet during a car ride.

Instructional DVDs

Finally, math DVDs are another option that parents are choosing to show on their car headrest monitors. They find a math instructional DVD that is appropriate for their child. For instance, a third grade student may watch a DVD about fractions while a high school student may view a DVD on the basics of Algebra. Once again, the time in the car with their child is not wasted because parents can find all sorts of instructional DVDs that will reinforce the subjects kids are learning in school. For parents interested in finding quality headrest monitors, Pacific Stereo has a large selection available.
