You modeled so well asking Harry what he wanted to know. The questions provide a purpose for the information search. Protecting him from inappropriate content is really a subset of the the general process of filtering information to find out what you want to know. Mediating the is showing kids how searching for information is a way to answer the questions important to us. So this exercise isn't just about earthquakes, but also about learning to learn. So great!

My biggest "thing" watching this vid is how "hung up" he was on that it was deadly, it could kill you. Most earthquakes don't kill anyone! I am not sure I would appreciate that my (theoretical) 7-year-old came away from a lesson so hung up on something that can kill him/her.
I am all for how you went and looked with him to find out more about stuff. He shares the learning with you. That's cool!
Exactly! I had a flashback to 1994-95 when I taught web searching and literacy ... the same concept, but tools have change, but the fear and anxiety haven't

Actually, I was concerned about that and we spent a lot more time talking about it without the camera rolling. We talked about the ricter scale -- and I shared with him that I had experienced a very small Earthquake that didn't kill anyone.
