So... how do I give negative stars?? October 27, 2009 big daddy b Lame! lame! lame! Do not buy this for your children. They will hate it. There is no thought behind it. The pictures they animate the words with have no relation to the meaning of the words themselves, so there is no way to help your child to jog his/her memory. For example, they make 'it' look like a man holding a jackhammer. No connection. It is really boring; the the voice just repeats each word over and over while the word displays on the screen. (it... IT... it..... it...) My children are eager to learn and were excited to have a new video to watch (and trust me, they will watch MANY things happily) and about 2 minutes into it, my four year old started saying, 'mommy, this isn't fun AT ALL.' She was right. Don't waste your time or money.
THIS WORKS! October 16, 2009 J. Francis I bought the "Your Baby Can Read" series for a zillion dollars only to find that my 4 year old was just NOT INTERESTED. It was almost like punishment getting her to watch the videos most days. I found a used "Sight Words" DVD and she LOVES it. She spots these sight words everywhere we go. Not only that, but my 8 month old son finds the DVD so amusing for some reason! I put the DVD in when we are driving and he just laughs and laughs! My daughter has mastered all of the words from Volume 1, so I'm back for volumes 2 & 3. This is a great product that isn't too expensive, my 4 year old (& 8 month old) actually like to watch it (over & over again), and it WORKS!
"It" is okay October 14, 2009 S. Manhertz (Deer Park, Texas United States) If you are looking for repetition, you found it... It... it... IT...
This program is very educational but without much fun so it doesn't hold my son's interest very much the way Leap Frog Letter Factory does. He very rarely asks to watch this video. I wish we had bought the Leap Frog version of sight words instead of this. I chose it because it was highly rated, so obviously it works for some children, just not really mine.
Gift For Friend. September 26, 2009 E. Stiles (Small Town, MO USA) I purchased all three Meet the Sight Words dvds for my friend's daughter's five year birthday. The daughter loves them and Mom does too! I have not had the opportunity to view any of the dvds but the positive feedback on them makes me believe that the investment is wise. I know that my four year old son will benefit from them as well so I will be purchasing all three Meet the Sight Words dvds for Christmas as stocking stuffers!
Great when child was a little older July 30, 2009 Mandy (USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this DVD right before my son turned two. He really disliked it at this age and walked away from it so I was sure it had been a waste of money. He just turned three and I decided to give it a try agian...and he loved it! He learned 15 of the sight words in just one evening of wathcing the DVD. He has started to read basic words like "cat" so this was the perfect next step. I also had some word cards that we played with after the video to review what he was learning on the video. I do agree that the video can be considered boring if the child is not ready to learn their sight words, but if they are it is great!
