And she is only 4. She watches it over and over and seems to grasp other concepts, too. My daughter loves to watch the leap frog movies. Code Word Caper taught her the hidden "e" concept after watching it just one time.
She likes it so much that now she's guessing the letter that all the words she knows start with (clothes, ball, bed, etc). I love this DVD. Buy it and you will not regret it. This DVD is great and I'm lacking words to sing its praises. I bought this for my 3 year old since she knew all of her letters and I was trying to find a way to move to the next step of phonics. It only took her 3 times of viewing this DVD and now she knows the sound that each letter makes.
He has gotten better. This video has helped him learn some of the basic fundamentals about putting words together and sounding them out. I would definitely recommend this video. My son and I loves this video. He is learning how to read and at first he was having trouble putting words together and sounding them out.
It just wasn't structured as nicely, in my (teacherly) opinion. I used this video (and the one before it, the Talking Words Factory) to teach my 5year old GERMAN-born, GERMAN-raised son (and later, his then 3year old brother) how to read in English, sound out words based upon some phonetic regularity. The DVDs not only kept him highly entertained and singing the songs until they 'came out our ears' (German saying, meaning until we got sick of hearing them), but also taught him so quickly how to decipher English words that he caught up to his American-born classmates in no time and now, a year after we have moved back to Germany, STILL reads very well, reminding himself of the rules learned in the DVDs every now and again.I didn't like the last installment in the series as much though the punctuation and chunking portions were all right.
It's not only entertaining for the kids, but a great teaching tool as well. My 5-year old loves Leap Frog, and this is another Leap Frog video that he wants to watch over and over.
