Love Letter Factory!

My 2 year old has learned the letters! What can I say...this is a great DVD... Beware however....you might start singing along. The songs get stuck in your head!

Daughter loved it

Great movie. And educational. Daughter loves it and parent's don't mind it. I would highly recommend it!

Great Learning Tool

I bought this for my 3.5 year old after hearing about it from friends and reading so many great reviews.
My daughter loves it and she often asks to watch 'professor Quigley' over and over again. I have found her reciting the letters and sounds to herself before she goes to bed at night.
The reason why I didn't give this 5 stars is because of one thing. When teaching the L sound, it is not very clear and both my daughter and I hear 'O'. When we get to that part, she would ask me why are they saying 'O' when it's 'L'.
Other than that, I'd recommend it to all parents of preschoolers.

Contains errors! Needs improvement.

I suspect that a lot of the parents who gave this video a good review did not watch ALL of it with their child. The video is visually entertaining and fun, but the spoken part needs to be redone. It simply is incorrect about how to pronounce some of the letters. L shouldn`t be pronounced ``Uhl`` but they say it that way over and over, and the R shouldn`t be said ``er`` and so on. Also, in every case, only the short vowel sounds are taught, A as in apple, not A as in ate. When I taught phonics, we told kids that every vowel says its name, plus another sound. It isn`t hard to teach that, and it is really important. Worst of all, few examples are given of how the letters actually sound in words. For example, they show us a letter M saying ``m m`` but they don`t bother to say a single M word. My 3 year old loves watching the video and playing the little game that comes with it, but I wish it were better.
