Rating: - Disappointed..wish it lived up to online demo
Wow, I'm disappointed. I really should have known better.
I've been working in the field of early childhood for over a decade. Most of my graduate-level work focused on infant and toddler development. Why wouldn't someone like me know that flashcards and monotonous repetition are unhealthy and boring for toddlers and total unproductive? Because, like most parents I was wooed by the thought of super-babies.

Rating: - Great learning system!
I bought the whole package off their website. I love it! It's very interactive and my baby boy (ll months) loves it! It's been about 3 weeks and he's already learning new words and starting to read them. Even if he doesn't become a great reader he's obviously learning new words by sound which is great on its own.

As an Occupational Therapist I'm not surprized that so many children today cannot properly spell or read. Programs like ... Read More

Rating: - better than junk TV and DVDs!
I live in UK, originally grew up in US and was concerned how these would translate with the accent etc. But my 3 year old son loves these. When he started pre school he was behind but now he is ahead in spelling and reading. I do believe it has helped him in learning, no problem.

Rating: - Better than learning to read using the traditional phonics method
I started showing these DVDs to my daughter when she was 7 months. She was reading from flashcards at 1, sounding out words at 18 months and reading books at 2. My 8 month old is watching them now and she really enjoys them. She smiles and waves her arms.

My older child is now 3. One thing that amazes me is that she has better reading skills than 2nd, 3rd and 4th graders I have heard reading. I'm not sure if learning earlier improves reading ability or if there is something about this method. ... Read More
