LeapFrog: Letter Factory Review

The Leap Frog dvd "The Letter Factory" is one of the best elarning tools for phonics that I have used.  My husband and I gave it to out daughter for her third birthday.  She wants to watch it three or more times a day.  She has had it a little over a week and she can already tell you the sound that most of the letters say. She did already know her alphabet prior to watching this video.

We also have a 16 month old son who watches this video with her.  Not only is this one of the few videos he will watch practically to the end, but he is learning his alphabet and which letters make which sounds.  He is pointing to different letters in books and on signs and he can easily identify at least five different letters.  If I ask him what any letter A through F says, he can tell me that sound.

This was recommended to me by a friend who homeschools all four of her children and she uses this video in conjunction with their other curriculum to teach her children how to read.

I highly recommend this video!  Especially for car trips if you have an in car dvd player.  If they are going to be watching a movie, why not an educational one?
