Summary: Suprisingly effective
Comment: I rented this DVD from Netflix some years ago, knowing next to nothing about it. While the medley was incredibly annoying to me, my daughter was riveted and actually learned the sounds of all the letters in no time! She always wanted to watch it and it really got her through that particular step a child takes before learning how to read. Now my son is that age (3) and he's having particular trouble with speech and letter sounds. I have high hopes that this DVD will be just the help he needs. This DVD is not fun for parents, it's incredibly repetitive, but it's perfect for pre-schoolers. Highly recommended!

Summary: My children (2 and 3) love it
Comment: The letter factory is a great dvd for my children to learn their letter sounds. Even my 2 yr old sings the song all day, and recognized some letters. (we have only watched it a few times, but I can see the affect already).
Customer Rating:
Summary: Visually overstimulating, contrived story and phonemic mistakes
Comment: This DVD is not one of the better learning tools out there. The audio and visuals are overstimulating and distracting from the message, the story line is contrived and hard for little ones to follow and the characters pronounce the letters incorrectly in many cases.
I can see that it might be entertaining for some kids, if they are used to fast pace animation and the unfortunate jump-cut editing pervasive in children's programming. But my 2.5-year-old was bored with it and didn't want to watch it again. He enjoys story-based programs (Curious George, Little Polar Bear, etc.) and lesson-based programs (Brainy Baby ABCs), so it's not a matter of his not being able to follow along. I think it was just too much unnecessary noise and action.

Summary: 22 Month Old Now Knows Letters And Sounds By Sight
Comment: I was a first grade teacher before my son was born, so I have a pretty good handle on teaching letter sounds, etc. I'm all about having children learn from many different angles, so thought this video would be a great addition to our learning routine. Actually, we hadn't really done much with the alphabet when we got this (at around 20 months), so this was his first introduction to the alphabet other than singing the alphabet song and a few flash card sessions.
Much to my surprise, within a few times of viewing this video my son was able to say all his letter sounds. After around 2 months of off and on viewing, he can now say all of the letter sounds just by seeing the letter. What's more impressive is that he can do this out of order, and he is beginning to decode words using the sounds! This is something that many kindergartners are just learning.
Of course, I think my son is brilliant (lol! Doesn't every mom?) but I'm more than happy to announce that this video is extremely well done, and I don't think that my son would be as far along without it, despite my teaching background.
When you use this video (and the others in the series, which we will start in on shortly) in conjunction with flash cards, teachable moments around the home/outside the home, etc...your child will be well prepared for school.
Go leapfrog!

Summary: A great video for teaching sounds
Comment: I've bought many videos including elmo, disney, and dora. This video is by far my daughter favorite and has helped her identify letters and their sounds. A+
