3 DVD Sight Words Pack

UPDATE: I had written a review before and I will keep it, but now that my son has turned 4 he asked one day out of the view these again. As I state below I do not find these entertaining but we sat together and we did the quizes aferward and he watched all three videos about 4 times. Two days later thinking nothing of this I was left a note by his AM preschool teacher to have my son read me a book she left, and while it was the most basic book one could find he did indeed sit and read me the book word for word. I still find these videos boring, tedius and I cannot believe my child had the interest to watch them but he did and he learned and he retained it. I would never force this video on my child, but he liked Meet the Letters and learned all his letters so I got these for him. He was very excited and by his own request watched them on and off all weekend. My son, age 3 has been insisting on watching one movie after the other and not the same one over and over again so his total intake is not as high as it was with meet the letters when he watched it over and over again (about 45 words in the set), but he definitely has picked up several words in a short time. As a parent watching these I find them tedious and torturous, but they seem to do what they are intended to do better than more entertaining videos and they hold my son's interest. I like that these are truly geared to what is taught and tested for as opposed to any old word a creative director could fit into a story. Another interesting thing is compared to other videos he seems to be able to retain these if showed the word elsewhere on paper. There are a few shows with similar content where he can shout out the word on the screen but can't identify the word in a real life scenario. The end of the video puts the words in sentences has a flashcard sequence.

I bought these videos for my 2 1/2 year old and within about a month he knew all the words. I had purchased Your Baby Can Read for his 2nd birthday and he had mastered all the words on it in 5 months and I wanted to further his reading skills and found this series. He already knew letters, numbers, shapes and colors so I didn't need those but am sure they are also wonderful videos. The Meet The Sight Words series helped him learn the sight words for Kindergarten in a fun way and he found many of the scenes to be comical and wants to watch them over and over still 6 months later. By watching this video series he has learned sight words faster than my friend's 6 year old who is in Kindergarten. At 2 years old he knew more sight words than 2 children I knew who are both in Kindergarten! Their Mom's were not happy that a 2 year old knew more words than their 6 year olds. Your Baby Can Read gave my son a great foundation for reading skills and Meet The Sight Words built on those skills! I'm not saying you have to purchase Your Baby Can Read to make these videos a success I already owned it and wanted to find more similar DVD's to continue his reading skills, My cousin's 4 year old also loves Meet The Sight Words and her pre-k teacher can't get over how many words she knows before Kindergarten thanks to these videos. My son has special needs due to a brain hemorrhage at birth, he has Sensory isues, gross motor delays and a speech delay but these videos helped his speech delay because he wanted to say the words, because the word repeats several times he is hearing it more and tries to say the words with better success. His speech has dramatically improved. I highly recommend these videos to all children ages 2-5.

I started my daughter off on the "Your Baby Can Read Program" when she was 6 months. I begin to recognize that at the age of 1 she could recognize words from the program in written form and in books. I knew my daughter needed to be challenged more and she was ready to begin her journey of reading! I read a review from a parent who also started their child out on the "Your Baby Can Read" program when they were a baby and later purchased the series, "Meet The Sight Words". The reviewer mentioned that because her son had an early foundation from the "Your Baby Can Read Program" he caught on to the "Meet The Sight Words Program" right away. I thought just maybe my daughter will have similar results. I am enthused to report that not only did my daughter memorize the words from all three videos in less than 3 weeks but she is also reading! After purchasing the DVD's I decided to purchase the easy readers. She was so excited when she was able to read. She has also advanced and is reading other I can read, beginner reader books. My daughter loves the flash cards and takes them out several times a day so she can go over them! Parents, you can't lose in purchasing this program for your child. If you don't start now you will review these words with them when they start school. Why not get an early start? "Meet The Sight Words" will give your child confidence, a desire to read more, and a desire to learn more! My daughter is 2 and reading! Her littler sister is 9 months and loves this program. Its just a matter of time before she will also catch on. I recommend this program to any parent who desires for their child to have an early advantage in literacy skills!

I showed my 26 month old these set of DVDs and I'm only a few days, she would point to the correct words when I showed it to her. In about 2 weeks, she could read almost all the words! She enjoys watching them and loves doing the flashcards. It's one of the best educational resource I've ever bought.

4歳になる娘の "Sight Words" 学習のために購入しました。 普通のルールを使ってもうまく読めない "Sight Words" は覚えさせるのに結構苦労しますが、このDVDだったら楽しく学べそうです。 さすが賞を沢山いただいただけあって、幼い子供が興味を持つ工夫がなされています。 アニメを見る感覚でアメリカ人の子供レベルなんて言わずに、子供がなんとなく覚えてくれたら親としては嬉しいですね。

賞も取ったということで購入してみましたが、一つの単語を見せる時間が長すぎます。 子供が飽きてしまうと思います。私も2倍速で、その先に何があるのかを見ました。 その単語が動きをみせますが、あまりその単語の意味に関係ない動きだったりするものが 多く、「なぜこの動き？」と疑問も多々残りました。 私の感想です。感性は人それぞれですから、いいという人もいらっしゃるかとは思います。

The whole preschool prep series is simply amazing.My son learned all his colours,shapes and numbers by the time he was 2 1/2 year old with the help of this series products.2 months more and he learned all his alphabet .The teachers at the playschool he attends are simply amazed.Now he is on to this 3-dvd set and he already knows all the words of the meet the sight words 1 dvd.I cant say enough of this wonderful series.

Not as good as shapes, numbers and letters though
