Great music and kids love it!Rating:5 out of 5 starsThis is a DVD with 12 stgeenms and a little paperback book that goes with each segment. Each of the 12 parts has a cute animated skit introducing a vowel and its sound in a memorable way. Then a song follows, with the words to the song lighting up at the bottom of the screen karaoke-style. The songs are really cute and recorded with real instruments, in styles like funk, disco, latin, punk rock, etc. We have watched this regularly for almost a year and a half and neither kids or parents are tired of it. The words of the songs are very simple but clever and the animations are cute. Our kids get up and dance to every song. The payoff comes when they look at the books and find that they remember the songs well enough to “read” the books. Mine aren’t really reading yet but we got this when they were only 1 1/2 and 2 1/2 so what do you expect? The older one enjoys trying to follow along with the book while the DVD plays. Mostly we just really enjoy watching this together. We call it “Al Can!” because that is the first real song after the introduction. If Leap Frog wanted to improve this product, I would suggest making the books out of something more durable than paper – like a board book. Ours are still in good shape but only because of Mommy’s constant vigilance!
