Tongue-tied over introducing the facts of life to the kids? If the humor-and-honesty route sounds appealing, consider Where Did I Come From?, an animated, 30-minute icebreaker for parents who need a little help getting all the words out. Based on the treasured 1977 children’s book of the same title, this Film Advisory Board award winner induces plenty of laughter as it playfully teaches lessons in reproductive anatomy, intercourse, fertilization, gestation, and childbirth. The action begins by roasting all the goofy explanations parents concoct regarding their child’s arrival; then it follows “your parents” (anatomically correct) as they bathe, make love, and await the arrival of “you.” Comedian Howie Mandel narrates almost verbatim from the book, so a few scenes and lines are somewhat dated (think ambulance and gurney rides). Ultimately, parents must determine an “appropriate” viewing age for this topic, but the vocabulary and degree of explanation seem suitable for ages 4 to 8. –Liane Thomas
