Our son loved the Bee Smart Baby Action Words 2 video. It picks up where Action Words 1 leaves off and teaches a number of verbs to wonderful classical music--very easy for adults to listen to and very easy for little toddlers to learn from. Our developmentally delayed four year old learned so much from this videotape. Children act out each of the action words as the words flash on the screen. I liked this as much as the basic vocabulary series Bee Smart has. Action Words are important: teachng verbs helps young children learn what it is that they are doing.

I bought all of the Baby Bumblebee DVD's for my son. When I saw that they had DVD's for the older child, I was very happy. My 3 year old son loves watching the kids in the program and he will repeat every word. Very good for kids that have speech delayed problems.

Both my son and my daughter simply love the whole "Baby Bumblebee" series. What's more important, the series seems effective in helping my older boy (three years) with his vocabulary, which is a big deal since his langauge is delayed. Another plus is that the all-classical music is easy on adult ears and nerves.

But to be realistic, the production values are inexpensive and it shows. It's very academic and adults can expect to find it boring. That having been said, I wouldn't assume that this has anything to do with how children will respond. Many may like the plain style, since it makes the show quite easy to follow. It also means the series can be trusted not to confuse or upset tiny children with fast-moving fantasy material, which might happen with videos geared towards the three-and-up crowd.

From where I'm standing, this series is best for language delayed children or maybe those who are just on the cusp of talking and can use some new words. If this describes your child, I think it's worth the investment to try one video in the series, and then to buy more if it works well for you.

The bumble bee "Action Words 1-3" videos are excellent. They helped my 18-mon son to speak and read greatly. Every word is so well illustrated in the vedio! The best part of them: My son loves these videos so madly and therefoer learned words from them so quickly!!! There are about 23 words in each vedio.

And the "Vocabulary Builder 1-5" are also excellent. Especially the "Vocabulary builder 1-3" have 5 multilanguage that you can choose: English, French, Spanish, German, and Japanese. That is 5-in-1 that can save you lots of money. They also have other extra benefits features such as "sign language" and "Question & answer"!

The "Motorized Madness" is also good, it has 10 machines such as "airplane, bulldozer, dump truck, backhoe loader, helicopter, bucket truck, boat, motlecycle, fire truck, and bus." It also explains each part of the machine, like the wings, propellers, engine, cab...

The baby bumble bee surely produce the best of the best infant and kids reading program vedios in the market--as good as Dr. Titzer's "Your baby can read 1-5" DVDs and Dr. Glenn Dorman's "How to teach your baby to read" book.

I love baby bumble bee's "Opposites", "Motorize", "Actions words 1-3" and "vocabulary builders 1-5" the most. Highly recommended!

We bought this DVD for our non-verbal son. This series is alwyas advertised for children with autism so i went for it. it was horribly disappointing. if you want good videos with vocabulary get the sign langauge video "Talking hands" it is excellent and well-done. My son lovesit and he can work on vocabulary and signing.

My ASD kid asks for this always and my 1 year old watches along with him

If there is a product kids sit and watch quietly, that one matters - nothing else - kids are the best judges, if they do not watch, then a no go

This one they watch

She loves to watch this video and the music is so pleasant that I enjoy it also.

My son loved to learn the words and also enjoyed the way they show in the video. We have all the 3 action words and gave it to my son one by one. He was very trilled to see new ones everytime we gave it to him. The repeatition helpes children to learn the words and also their actions. Defintly worth every cent.
