My children have all the other preschool prepco videos and when they entered preschool they were far ahead. I just added these for reading readiness and it's paid off already, my son just entered Kindergarten and even though he's PDD he's reading at level and above. These Rock!!!

We purchased all 3 videos and at age 3 my son watched and learned ALL the sight words in each DVD. I made my own flash cards on index cards to practice the words. We started with Meet the Sight words 1 and wouldn't give him the next video until he mastered the 1st one. Although my husband and I found the videos to be boring, he liked them and this was a great start for him to read. At 3 1/2 he began reading BOB books and I credit much of his reading success to these videos.

I bought this for my son who is autistic and in an inclusive Kindergarten class. He is a visual/tactile learner and seeing the words on the screen and hearing each word repeatly helped him to learn his sight words. He seemed to be able to focus better since there was not alot of distraction. Every aspect of the animation was geared to each word.

I love meet the sight words my kids learned all their sight words (from 1-3) in 2 weeks its wonderful! I wanted a product to teach them the sight words in a way that they would remember them and this has.

Both my 3 and 5 yr old love these DVDs. They've been a good supplement to my 5 yr old's reading program, and the 3 yr old has started to identify some of these words in books as well. I would recommend the Meet The Sight Words DVDs as a supplement to a beginning reading program.

I am a teacher and I thought the concept of these videos sounded good. I got "Meet the Sight Words" for my 4 year old and the numbers video for a 2 year old. They cry if I put them on. They say they are for babies, and boring. I have had great success with the Leap Frog videos, as well as Word World. I think pre-school prepco products are for the very young, as in under 2 years old.

I have a 6 year old who has really struggled to learn to read. She has no desire to and it's like pulling teeth to get her to try. I purchased this video and the sight word cards and after watching it one time she knew over half the words. It was amazing. I would definitely recommend this video and have already ordered the other two to go with the flash cards.

We love all of the Preschool Prep DVD's. This is a fun way for your child to learn sight words. Gives variety to the process of learning to read. Love these!

My 5 year old twins LOVE these videos and just by watching them, they have learned most of the sight words they need to know at the END of kindergarten NEXT year!

I would recommend this to anyone wanting a beginning reading curriculum. I checked this series out from our local library and within two or three times of watching it my 2 and a half year old daughter was reading these sight words in stories and books and on household product packaging. I was sooooo excited!

The videos are very catchy showing each word in an eye-catching animation with music in the background. The speaker repeats the word throughout the animation and then later in the video they quiz you on the word with no animation/music then add it in. Also at the end they recap the sight words using animations that show the words in more realistic settings where your child would most likely read them, for example, for the sight word PLAY it would highlight it on a video game machine that says "press PLAY."

I let her watch it either once or sometimes twice a day (rather than brainless cartoons on TV). She loves it. I also combine this with those beginning reader sets. We like the BOB books and also check them out from the library. The other great tool I liked was the Leap Frog videos of the Lettery Factory (where she learned the sounds the letters make) and Talking Words Factory (which teaches beginning phonics and how to put letters together to make simple words). We alternate with these educational videos whenever she wants to watch TV.

I am going to purchase this set for my friend's son. I would highly recommend it.
