43 Excellent Educational Finds

From Youtube Classes to Anatomical Heart Puzzles

— March 3, 2010 — Social Good
Students and teachers will love these excellent educational finds. Finally, here is a cluster devoted solely to learning. I feel smarter already.

Education is a dying concept. Why go to school when you can become a viral video star and make tens of dollars? These excellent educational finds will give you the inspiration to continue learning, or your money back.

Implications - My favorite educational find is without a doubt celebrities teaching children how to count. It's great seeing musicians utilizing their influence for a worthwhile cause. Other quirky finds include YouTube classes, educational plush toys, anatomical heart puzzles, as well as educational toilet paper. Nothing beats learning while wiping.
