For several weeks Sunnyboy has been fascinated by volcanoes and yesterday we went looking for more volcano resources online.
His favourite volcano video is Volcano Eruption by John Seach (volcano adventurer and film maker) at Volcano Live.

The Volcano Song
We had a great time last night watching volcano videos before bed and singing The Volcano Song. Thanks to @CamilleBijou, from lightly enchanted, for some great volcano website suggestions via Twitter.
Do you know of any volcano websites for children, or volcano videos? We would love it if you let us know and leave links in the comments section.

Great resource Sunnymana. We love volcanoes here too. We did a search a while ago, but your list is better. Have you watched the Top Gear drive up the Icelandic volcano from last year? I am sure it must be on YouTube somewhere. Xx
