Pbs Learning Media: Curious George: Tool Time

In the video Camping with Hundley, Curious George needs to use his camping skills after a storm knocks out the electricity that powers the Doorman's van. He uses a mallet to build a shelter, a lighter to start a fire, and sticks to cook hot dogs. After children explore what tools are, who uses them, and how the design of a tool matches its function, they play a game in which they match (and categorize) tools used by different professions. Children then imagine a job they'd like to do someday and a tool they might use.
