In the vastness that is the Internet and Youtube, is there a short (less than 10 minutes) video explaining Esperanto that would be fairly appropriate for 7 year olds in school? I was thinking that this one might be good, but it has a gun in it and that might be a deal breaker in an elementary school environment.

I know of the 'Esperanto Is...' Series, but it's a bit long in it's entirety and no one segment covers the subject briefly.

I ask this because my wife is including an Esperanto verse of Frère Jacques (along with a few other languages) for her 2nd graders to sing and she's like some simple visual way to explain about the language to them, a video being preferred.

Thanks,
Dave Rutan

This video is very cute but probably not as detailed as you're looking for.

I recommend searching for "why esperanto" in youtube and looking at some of the videos to see if there might be a good one (though probably not very slick or professional)

yes, not nearly as detailed as needed. I'm looking for the Who, what, where, when , why and how of Esperanto in 5 minutes. I'll try you're suggested search terms.

Who? Zamenhof.
What? A lingua franca for the man in the street.
Where? First in Poland, now everywhere throughout the industrialised world.
When? 1887.
Why? God knows? Seems to be a solution looking for a problem. The man in the street isn't seeking a lingua franca.
How? A language of simple and compound words. Every compound word consisting of elements whose form does not change. Thus a lot of what might be considered traditionally to be grammar is reduced to semantics.
Every simple word consists of a single element.

I'm aware of those facts. I was looking for them in a short video as described above.
