Calling all young adventurers, and those young at heart. Ever wonder what it would be like to go whitewater rafting, fly high in a hot air balloon, or even swing over a seacliff in Iceland? Awesome Adventures videos, based on the popular family television series by the same name, feature a host and two children who head out on adventures that many kids only dream of. Viewers explore interesting places around the world from a child's point of view, with a little bit of culture and history mixed into each episode for good measure.
Jagged Peaks and Killer Canyons has the group visiting Colorado and Utah where they experience a hot air balloon flight, mountain biking, shoeing a horse, fly fishing, water skiing, and handling a bow and arrow.
In Wild Water and Wild West, kids embark on a journey to Idaho where they experience the thrills of whitewater rafting. Then they are off to Wyoming where they experience some of the wild West by helping with a real cattle drive and then visiting a spooky ghost town.
Paradise and Polar Ice leads the troop to Belize where they experience the wonder of snorkeling above a coral reef and hiking through a rain forest. They even get to visit an ancient Mayan temple. Iceland is the backdrop for the next adventure where they take a Tarzan-style swing on a cliff overlooking the sea. Then they take a hike up the side of a steaming volcano and end with a soak in a natural hot spring.
Each video runs for approximately 42 minutes and contains 2 epsiodes. Viewers gain some vicarious enjoyment from watching the children's exciting adventures. The hosts are funny, and the videos' variety of interesting segments always grab — and keep — kids' attention.
