This Works!
My daughter is in Kindegarten and was having problems in school. She was really having problems with sight words. I saw this DVD and figured I would give it a try. My daughter and her twin brother both watched the show and both learned all of the sight words very quickly. Believe it or not they both loved watching this DVD and constantly wanted to watch it over and over again. I quickly ordered volume 2 and volume 3. I promise you that this will work and your kids will love it.

Great video
I have seen a big improvement in my son since I purchased this DVD and the other two in the series. He just wasn't getting his sight words, he just wasn't interested in learning them, until he started watching these videos. They have helped tremendously.

AMAZING!
Not only am I a parent, but I'm also a teacher. I recommend this video to everyone. My 2-year old daughter has about 25 sight words that she can recognize ANYWHERE. It took her several weeks to begin learning the words from the original first video. She enjoyed the viedos so much that she watched portions of them several times daily. I love that they have them segmented into 10-minute sections. We have had the 2nd video (actually the free supplmental one) for about one week, and she has already begun to name over half the words instantly. She really enjoys watching her word videos and loves to pick out her new sight words in the context of books. Even my 7-year old son is capitvated by the videos.
I direct a tutoring program, and have my 4-year old pre-K students watching them at home as well as my 7-year old struggling first grader. All of their parents are amazed at how quickly they are learnng the words--especially the first grader who didn't learn a single sight word in all of kindergarten. It took me 2 months to teach him 3 sight words. Once he started watching the video (2 weeks ago), he has begun to recognize 5 - 6 new words already. His mom couldn't be more pleased.
My friend and I teach our daughters together a few times weekly. It's neat that both my 2-year old and her early 3-year old can reconize all the words from the original video (23 words). 6 months ago, I would never have imagined teaching such advanced lessons to such tiny children. Because of the video, they are actually reading real books. It's amazing!!
I will say that children who are accustomed to watching a lot of tv, especially those rapidly paced cartoons probably will not enjoy these videos. They have a very slow pace (which is neccesary to accomplish their purpose) and there is no thrill. Neither of my children watch a lot of tv (and never the cartoons with the fast animation), so they are able to fully enjoy this video.
I wasn't as impressed with the Letter Video though, and neither was my daughter. She just never got "into" it. I think that Leap Frog Letter Factory is superior AND it also teaches the letter sounds. We always skip the beginning of that video and go straight to the letters.

Another great learning tool from Preschool Prep!
We've loved all the Preschool Prep DVDs. My 3-1/2 year old has learned letters (at 19 months!), numbers and now these sight words. Bravo Preschool Prep.
