Title "Learn to Read" may be misleading --- depending on age group Oct 15, 2009 This is a decent video but not essential. Now, the Letter Factory is definitely a must-have. My son is almost 4 yrs old and has been moved to the "Early Reading Program" at his preschool even though his age group is typically in Phonics first, then upon an assessment of readiness, they are moved to reading. He knew all his letters by 18 months old and knew the sounds of each letter by 3. If you are looking to help your child learn letters, you should definitely get the Letter Factory. It's amazing and fun to watch. My son wanted to watch that more than the Baby Einsteins (other than Baby Macdonald).
If you are wanting your child to read by 3 or 4, then this video is not going to help in my opinion. It may possibly help for an older age group -- If anything, it helps get children almost ready to read in the right mind-set and tries to make it fun. My son watched it a few times but wasn't hooked on it. One thing that I didn't like is that the video only uses capital letters and that is not helpful when any book you pick up is going to have both upper and lower case letters. If the child only sees words with all capital letters, than this is not going to help with reading a real beginner book like "cat in the hat". The lower case letters are going to be foreign.
From my internet research, children that can read at age 3 are usually the ones that learned by word-recognition/memory (i.e. not actually reading). Like my son recognizes the word "STOP" because its on all the stop signs, it's background is always red, and in the same shape.
Great series - buy them all Sep 16, 2009 This is the MOST valuable learning series for preschool and early elementary school children. Our girls love them - over and over! I am sure it has helped our three girls become early readers...Buy the set!
Prompt delivery Sep 01, 2009 Prompt delivery. Shipped new as advertised. My 5 year old loves watching the learning tools
Storybook Factory Jul 12, 2009 My son loves this DVD. He asks to watch it over and over again. He now will tell the story of "The Three Little Pigs" to everyone he meets.
I feel it is a great introduction for pre school age children to story telling. We love all the Leap Frog DVDs and hope more will be coming out in the future.
Effective Jul 04, 2009 The Leapfrog Letter, Words, and Storybook Factory engage, entertain, and instruct. The length of each DVD (about 30 minutes) left our little student (age 3) with plenty of time for other play, often singing the Leapfrog phonics songs. This child is now constructing "-at" words with joy and ease.
