I bought this DVD along with the Christmas DVD episode of Word World, because my son loves the series and i liked the idea of buying the holiday-oriented ones. But there is only 30 min of actual episode playing time on this - it is not 60 min. The other 30 min are commercials. In my opinion, 30 min of commercials, along with 2 15 min episodes, does not add up to '60 min playing time' and therefore this DVD is not worth the money i paid for it. I won't be purchasing any more of these 2-episode sets.

Word World is one of my son's favorite shows and he just can't get enough of it. Not only is Word World on everyday but they also come out with great holiday specials. Well they have done it again and come out with Word World My Fuzzy Valentine.

If you have never watched Word World before, it is an adorable show for kids any ages. All the animals are comprised of the letters that spell them. For example, the ant is made of the letters A-N-T and the same for sheep, frog, duck, pig, and the rest of the gang. Even items in the show like a car, cloud, and more are also spelled out.

In My Fuzzy Valentine there are two episodes with a total running time of 60 minutes. There is even a bonus music video, "It's Time to Rhyme." The episodes focus on helping others out, learning to rhyme, working together, and other good values that PBS shows usually are built on. I admit I like the show too and the songs they sing usually stick in my head! I love though how the show makes learning fun and I really think it is helping Aidan out with his letters. He recognizes the letters and animals and so at least he is getting some educational value from his cartoon time.

My son loves Wordworld!! I love word world. He is 2 1/2 years old and can spell now. He is writing letters and can identify 23 letters of the alphabet. However, In the description for this video, it says 60 minutes of running time. If you consider half of that time being commercials for other annoying shows to be worth your money, then cool. If not, this is 30 minutes of run time.

This is a very cute and fun way to learn. WordWorld has done it again with fun stories about Valentine's Day. My sons liked the two stories and it is always good to learn in a fun way. My biggest complaint with this DVD is that there are only two stories on this DVD. The DVD shows a running time of an hour but these two episodes didn't even come close to that. My kids were disappointed because our other WordWorld DVDs have more stories on them. I guess I need to pay better attention to the descriptions. Anyway, the stories on the DVD are titled, My Fuzzy Valentine and The Love Bug.

The first story revolves around sheep trying to figure out a rhyme for her song for her best friend, bear - what word rhymes with ART. She finally realizes after talking to her friends about different words that rhyme with ART (we - as in four year olds - laughed a lot for some reason over the monkey and the banana cart rhyme) that it is the word HEART she is looking for and just in time for the party! The second story involves bug and his friend frog. Bug has never spelled his own name. He wants to sign a Valentine for his best friend but he needs to learn how to do so. His friend, frog, helps him learn how to spell his name and lo and behold, the Valentine is for Frog - his best friend.

My daughter loves this DVD! She is 3 & 1/2 and already reading thanks in part to shows like this!!!

I bought the Fuzzy Valentine DVD along with a different episode (DVD). I was very disappointed to discover there is only 30 min (two 15 min episodes) of actual episode playing time on this, and not the 60 min as advertised. This DVD is not worth the money I paid for it.

Very cute, typical Word World DVD with two episodes. You basically can't go wrong with any Word World DVD

Any parent who wants their kids to start recognizing words, this is it. Word World can even help your child remember words so they won't forget. Any word world video would be great for any child from newborn up to 6rys old.

GREAT!!! Educational and FUN really helps the little ones to be able to sound out words and teaches great family values on how to treat your friends. Just a wonderful PBS show for toddlers to watch just love that can get it on DVD so can watch it anytime / any where!!!

Educational, entertaining, fun...and I love the innocence and the great way that the characters treat each other. My 2 year old is sold on Wordworld, so I am, too!
