The Muscular System (7 minutes)
Kid-friendly animated video explanation of the muscle system. Covers number of muscles, bones, tendons, muscles, brain, nerves, involuntary and voluntary, flexor and extensor muscles. Video contains the words "peeing" and "rear end" so don't use if your kids can't handle it. Otherwise excellent video and quite amusing

Excellent video starts with skeleton and adds muscles in correct anatomical position. No narration or sound but very interesting nonetheless.
