We use Cosmeo<\/a> quite a bit and H.o.p. really enjoys it.<\/p>\n

He really enjoyed the Brit show Maths Mansion<\/a> which he discovered via Cosmeo, which was filmed about 2001 and is a math adventure game geared for 9 to 11 year olds (not to be confused with the Ms. Infinity’s Math Mansion).<\/p>\n

Then suddenly the videos were gone from Cosmeo, not long after we discovered them and had begun making our way through them. I contacted Cosmeo and got no response. I contacted Cosmeo again saying we had really enjoyed them and were wondering if they would be getting them back and finally got a terse reply that said they’d done a search and saw no they were no longer available but could offer no reason why except for some perhapses such as perhaps the license had lapsed.<\/p>\n

My question had been IF they would be getting them back. Instead I get, “Oh, yes, I see they aren’t there any longer.”<\/p>\n

We already knew they were no longer there, which was why I was writing and asking if and when they might get them back.<\/p>\n

There were 40 10 minute Maths Mansion shows and only 10 of them are available via Youtube.<\/p>\n

You can purchase DVDs 1<\/a> and 2<\/a> from overseas via the Channel 4 Learning Shop but the cost is about $100 per DVD.<\/p>\n

OUCH! $200 for 2 DVDs.<\/p>\n

I don’t think so.<\/p>\n

It’s too bad Cosmeo let the license lapse because H.o.p. was getting a lot out of the shows.<\/p>\n

Raspberry on that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
