Product Description:
(Ages 4-6). Cool music and energetic characters get kids involved in learning to read. After a quick review of the alphabet, young learners discove the most common sound each letter makes. The attention-grabbing on-screen mouth shows how to form each sound properly. The excitement continues as students race the clock to say letter sounds before hearing the answers. They'll giggle along as they name the letters heard in silly sentences. Combining letters to make words comes next. And at last, after practicing with common sight words, it's time to read stories composed of simple sentences. Approximately 55 minutes.

Rating: - My Son Loves This Video - a review of "Rock 'N Learn Letter Sounds
My son who just turned 4 y.o. loves this video. Like the homeschool mom we got this at the library, and like her we found it really engages our children. (My daughter is almost 6.)
The video begins with the letters of the alphabet in sequence: capital and lower cases and sounds. It then goes on to mix the letters up, first showing the letters and giving children the time to say what the letters sounds are before telling them if they don't know. In a following segment, the video gives ... Read More
Rating:  - Rock'n'Learn ROCKS!
I found this item at a local library when my son was about 18 months old. I brought it home to check it out myself for future reference, but my son was immediately entranced by it, and wanted to see it again and again. We ended up buying this title, and it is still used in our home four years later. My favorite feature of this video is that a close-up of an actual person's mouth is shown saying sounds and words, so a child can see how the lips, tongue, and mouth should look when saying certain ...

Rating:  - Disappointing
This is a very disappointing video. In its defense though I am comparing it to Leap Frog's Letter and Talking Word factory videos which are streets ahead of this one. If you are only going to buy one basic letter sound video, buy the Letter Factory from Leap Frog. My children can watch the Letter Factory 3 times in a row but have yet to watch this one from beginning to end. They become very bored by this one.
Rating: - Grows with your child
My son has been watching this video since he was 18 mos. old.(I thought the opening sequence would be to quick for him, but after being entertained, he was able to break it down easily, even at that age) He enjoys it very much, and picks up different things as he grows. At first it helped him identify letters with a different alphabet tune than the traditional one. After identifying, he was able to sound out the first letter of the word. Now at 2 1/2 he can sound out beginning letter combinations. ... Read More
Rating: - Great video for learning phonics!
I have used this video with my 5 year old son. It keeps his attention and focuses on teaching: 1. the letter, 2. the sound it makes, 3. the lip movement the sound makes, and 4. a word and picture of the word item. I just let him watch short segments at a time! (And of course, review that segment over and over!) It has a couple of "games" for the children to watch and respond to. Excellent video!
