Summary: Great Educational Tool!
Review: Okay - we own a LOT of Leap Frog products. We've liked the educational value of all their toys, and they've proven to be quite durable as well.
We own the first two Leap Frog DVD's (Letter Factory and Word Factory), and we were excited to see new DVD's come out for it. Our 3-year old (almost 4) has loved the first two DVD's, so I thought she would like these new ones too.
I went out this morning and bought them at a local store, and she wanted to watch them right away. We're now on our second viewing of the movie, and she's already starting to sing and dance along with the Frog family.
I really like how the content is explained to the kids, and I know our daughter isn't watching some "brain numbing" show on TV.
Bravo Leap Frog!!! Keep up the great work! I would highly recommend these DVD's to anyone!

Summary: Another Great Video from LeapFrog -- Code word caper
Review: The other reviews are right. If you like the Talking Words Factory, you should like this follow-on video.

In this episode, children are taught about long vowel sounds, 'silent E", blended letters (such as sh and th), as well as blended vowels (the old when two vowels go walking the first one does the talking).

In addition, children are shown how vowels are forced to say their names when E's are added to their ends. Fat becomes long-A fate, for example.

Worth the money, for sure. [Certainly my 2.5 year-old would not know his letters and their sounds without these videos.]

Summary: They don't even know they are learning! Great Videos!
Review: We have had this video for two days and the kids have already memorized the songs. Leapfrog is a great company encorporating fun with learning. I recommend watching the first two videos first if your child is still learning their letters and letter sounds.
There is now a total of 3 videos on letters and phonics. You must get all three. The songs are catchy and it makes the concepts lots of fun. Both my three and half and five year old love to watch them over and over again, but most importantly, they have really absorbed the concepts.
I highly recommend these educational videos. Leapfrog has truly done it again.
