She continues to amaze us!

Brooklyn has started watching this Leapfrog video "The Letter Factory". She liked it a little at first, but now it's her favorite movie. It didn't take long for her to start singing the letter sounds from the movie. She would say the sounds of "A" and "B", but I didn't question her on any of the other letters. I was so excited she had learned a couple of them. The other night I was getting her ready for bed & I started asking her the letter sounds of each letter. We went through the entire alphabet & she knew every single sound of each letter. I was totally shocked!! She didn't have to think about them either--she would say the sound as soon as I said the letter. I am a total believer in the video. They have at least 2 more videos where they put letters together to make words (Allie is liking "The Talking Word Factory") and then there is a math one & storybook one. The videos are really cute & very educational. They are only about $10.00, too. If you want a good recommendation for something to teach your children the alphabet or how to read, try out Leapfrog!!

Max loves it too. I can't believe how early they are learning their letter sounds. He is just getting into it, but loves his "Frog" movie. He's learned a couple letters and loves the Q and W parts of the movie. It was so interesting, the day after you were telling me Brooklyn liked the Q letter the best, Max started imitating that part of the movie. Thanks for the recommendation.

Becca,
I want you to know that because of this post, I have now purchased this DVD for Abree( for Christmas) ...I bet Treyson could still benefit from it too. Thanks, I can't wait to see if she likes it. Alisha
