5.0 out of 5 stars Helped teach my son to read, July 22, 2010

This review is from: My Very First Treasury of 50 Storybook Classics: Preschool Stories (Scholastic Storybook Treasures) (DVD)

My four-year-old son just started reading, and when people ask me if I taught him, I say, "No! The Scholastic DVDs did!" (Much like the Leap Frog DVDs taught him his letters when he was 21 months old.) We went to the library and got the corresponding books with each DVD. He watches them over and over and OVER. He asks what words are, and then he learns them. And while most of these books he has memorized by now, he can read other books because of the skills he has learned. I would say age two is too young to be able to appreciate most of the stories. Put them away until age three or four and then try again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gentle entertainment for preschoolers and older toddlers, March 11, 2010

Why must children's videos scream at them? Hyperkinetic television conditions kids to expect fireworks from all of their entertainment, so that even the creators of the good stuff (Little Einsteins, Team Umi Zoomi and even the later versions of Dora the Explorer) believe everything must be BIGGER to compete. Scholastic classic stories provide a gentle, welcome respite from the usual kids' DVD. These are perfect for wind down time before naps or bedtime, or for in the car. The storylines are deceptively simple enough for preschoolers, but provide the substance and depth to condition children to appreciate literature over the flash and twaddle that constitutes junk food TV.

We love these stories on DVD. My two yr old will watch as long as I will let her. A great alternative to cartoons, real stories being read to her like I would.
