Review
In Word World, set in a lush landscape filled with funny barnyard animals, the messages are clearer: because each animal is graphically spelled out, kids can watch as the letters P-I-G form that porcine creature. Even the scenery gets in on the act- a barn, a tree, a splash in the lake. When animals take time to build a word (always a moment of great expectation and jubilation), you can actually witness the little wheels working in the viewers' heads. After just one viewing, a 4-year-old who's always struggled with her letters volunteered to spell a new word: B-O-X. Presents don't get any better than that. --Entertainment Weekly

3.0 out of 5 stars Like WordWorld, but not the assembled material, September 9, 2008

By	S. Johnston - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

First, the bad: The length of each episode is short. I feel they should have put more episodes on each dvd. When compared to other preschool videos, this is short. Curious George is a much better deal! Also, they sneak advertisements in unexpected places. I usually make sure to skip the promotional material for my daughter, but these guys are sneaky about where they put it, and that's not playing fair.

That said, I love WordWorld! The stories really help my preschooler with putting words together and how different letters function together. Some subjects are treated too lightly (e.g., treating fall migration as a vacation), but I suppose you can't accomplish all learning goals with one product (unless you're Sesame Street!). Overall, watching WordWorld has nicely complemented the preschool learning that my pre-kindergartner is getting at her Montessori school.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent series, love the DVDs, July 6, 2008

By	A. Sellers "dicia" (Rockville, MD USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This has been a great cartoon series for my 3 & 5 year olds to work on building words with the letters they already know. The characters are fun and I love the concept of using the words as the physical make-up of the body of whatever they're spelling. Great visual for kids.

Highly educational and even my 2 year old begs for Word World!
