DVD Reviews of Leap Frog - Letter Factory
DVD Review: Best video for kids to learn alphabet
Summary: 5 Stars
Our 9 year old learned the alphabet with this video, and now our 3 year old is doing the same. IF YOU GET ONE VIDEO, get this for your young child. DVD Review: Wonderful tool for learning ABC'S!
Summary: 5 Stars
My daughter got this DVD on her 1st birthday. She is mesmerized by it! I love that I can turn something on the TV, and not feel completely guilty for it. She is learning her alphabet faster than other children in our family!DVD Review: Excellent Intro to the Alphabet
Summary: 5 Stars
My 18 month old loves this. She learns a new letter almost every time she watches it. She is already picking out letters in books, especially the vowels.
The video systematically goes through each letter, showing fun scenes within the letter factory. Each letter has its own room where they learn what sound it makes. The frog goes on a tour through the factory learning the sound of each letter with the letters. They sing a song "The A says 'ah' the A says 'ah'; every letter letter makes a sound; the A says 'a'." This song is repeated in each room, sung over while showing the letters. In addition to showing animated letters, each letter is shown written on a door, written on a blackboard, and usually written on other items. For each letter examples are given of words that start with that letter. After about 3 or 4 letters are introduced, they are reviewed.
The video manages to hold my daughter's attention throughout the entire thing.
With some parental involvement, reinforcement, and review, this is an excellent resource for introducing your child to the alphabet (upper and lower case) and their basic sounds.
DVD Review: Enjoyable for toddlers and older kids as well
Summary: 4 Stars
My 3 yr old daughter absolutely loves this DVD. She was particularly resistant to learning her letters when I attempted to teach her, but in a few weeks of viewing the Leap Frog Letter Factory (3 or 4 times a week) she can now recognize her upper case letters and knows their corresponding sounds. She constantly sings the catchy song used in the DVD to teach the sound each letter makes. I only rated the DVD 4 stars, since I thought that the lower case letters should have been included as well. By the way, my 6 yr old asks to watch the DVD as well (even though she already reads above her grade level). So definitely two thumbs up.DVD Review: Great Start
Summary: 4 Stars
I have been teaching for 18 years. I bought this DVD for my son. He watches it about 4 times a week. He know knows about 6-8 letters and their sounds. My son is 2.3 years old.
In my job I am frequently rquired to assess the cognitive development of young children. Many of these children are 6, 7 and even 8 years old and do not have a firm grasp of their letters or their sounds.
This DVD will not take the place of working and playing with your child, but it acts as a very powerful supplement.
The DVD is consistent, it uses the same song for each letter. The only drawback is that most of the lower case letters are not reviewed, only the uppercase. However, if this is the only draw back to having your child ready to read by 3 years then it is well worth it.
I would recommend this DVD to parents of young children or even parents or teachers of children with learning difficulties.

Theatrical Trailer
Tad, Leap, and Lily hop from the pages of the amazingly popular Leap Pad learning toys onto the television screen in this attention grabbing phonics program. Tad's disappointment at being unable to help his family with an important presentation at the letter factory quickly turns to excitement when he meets Professor Quigley and joins each of the letters of the alphabet in their own fun-filled classroom devoted to learning their unique sound. Tad practices karate kicks with the k's, digs the vibes with the cool cat d's drumming on the bongos, and snores peacefully with the z's while learning to recognize each letter and the sound it makes. A catchy, fun song serves as a summation of each letter's "class" and entices even the most reluctant of toddlers (and their parents) to sing each letter's sound. An interactive game follows the program and gives children a chance to practice their newfound skills of recognizing letters and their sounds. Consumers expect great educational products from LeapFrog and this DVD won't disappoint. (Ages 2 to 5) --Tami Horiuchi
