Description:

In WordWorld, words come alive, words save the day, and words become a child's best friend.

Welcome to WordWorld, the first preschool series where words are truly the stars of the show! Come along for an adventurous romp into a colorful, vibrant world of words with the lovable, legible WordFriends, animals whose bodies are made up of the letters that spell the word they are!
The WordFriends go on comic adventures and face challenges that can only be resolved with the right word. That word is built letter by letter, sound by sound, during the funky "Build a Word!" song at the end of every episode. Once the word is built it "morphs," or comes alive into the thing it is!
Word building reinforces the pre-reading concept that letters (and their sounds) make words, and that words have real meaning...and power. The series also introduces literacy concepts that preschoolers will encounter as they become readers, such as sounding out letters and rhyming. But most of all, WordWorld helps children get excited about reading and see words as their friends.

Includes these Episodes:
Happy Birthday Dog! Dog's friends are planning a surprise birthday party for him, but they don't have a cake! With a little help from Pig, Frog gathers the letters C-A-K-E...but can he them to the party without ruining the surprise? Sh-Sh-Shark! When Duck befriends a Shark, he learns that the letters S and H make the "sh" sound, and everyone else discovers that you can't judge a shark by his sharp-toothed cover. The Mystery of the Disappearing Pie Pig's pie for Bear has gone missing! Have no fear Detective Sheep is ready to help her WordFriends follow the letter clues and solve the mystery of the disappearing pie! Snug as a Bug When Bug can't sleep because he needs to be snug, he and his favorite neighbor, Frog, have to figure out the end of the rhyme: "Snug as a bug in a..." Can YOU guess the end?

4good for preschoolers  Sep 17, 2009
I have a 7 year old and 4 year old. The 7 year old has only watched it twice but the 4 year old seems to like it pretty well. Glad I bought it, but not sure I will buy any more from WordWorld will probably try something different. All in all I think it is pretty good for preschoolers.

5Love, love, love this DVD  Aug 22, 2009
I love this DVD (and the series), what they are trying to do, and the way they achieve it. My daughter loves Word World too, and it is teaching her to spell.

5Great video  Aug 04, 2009
My three-year-old absolutely loves these Word World videos and out of our entire collection, these are the movies he usually chooses to watch. They are very good at keeping him focused on what is being taught and he retains what he has seen. They are clean, educational, and fun.

5Creative!!  Mar 12, 2009
My two year old daughter adores Word World!! I was most impressed with this creative idea to introduce reading concepts to young children! H-A-T-s off to PBS Kids and Word World. As a parent I also appriciate that this series is not so much into marketing commericalizm to young children, unlike SO many other children's programs.

5Great DVDs!  Feb 27, 2009
My 8 month old daughter loves this show! She claps and dances to the music and is just fascinated with it. We are collecting all of the characters right now for her - she loves to pull them apart and then stick them back together. They are great learning tools ... we use them to point out letters, the sounds they make, the sounds they make when they come together and then the word itself! A great association tool.
