 Amazing Show...might be duplicates if you own other WW videosJan 12, 2010
By RKendzio
I cannot say enough about this show. It is one of the most imaginative, fun and educational shows out there. My son is a letter hound and is in love with this show (27 months)I think if any child is going to watch any tv it should be this show over almost any other. The only reason I put a four on this review is to draw attention to possible duplicates if you already have other videos. I am guessing that this is because Lots of Letters is a compilation set of all of their videos. With that in mind you should expect to see some that are on other disks. Kind of like a best of. If you are trying to budget what you spend you should know what is on other videos. If you are only going to buy one Lots of Letters is the one. The best bang for your buck. Then by the Christmas, Valentines Day, and Halloween disks. They are very cute. I did not know what was on the box set since I was new to Word World so I bought more than I would have if I had known.
IF you by this box set you might not want to buy Sheep's A Start. Three of the four videos on Sheep's A Star are in this box set. The Birds, W Drought, Chef Sheep. The only one no in the box set is Princess Sheep off that video.
Three of the four videos on Flying Ant are in this box set: Flying Ant,Catch that C and Play Ball. The one that is not on the video is Shuffleword. So again, If you already have Lots of Letters it might not be worth the purchase for that one extra show.
Welcome to world word has two shows that are in the box set Lots of Letters: Happy Birthday Dog and The Mystery of the Disappearing Pie.
Once again, this is one of the most amazing shows I have ever made for kids. My son fell in love with it so if you have a little one that is just in love with letters or a child that struggles...this is for you. The holiday shows are great for kids when you want to treat then to a show but want it to be educational.

A must for Word World loversJan 07, 2010
By J. R. Siegler
My 3 year old son and I absolutely love Word World. If you are unfamiliar with this series, its a PBS show geared at teaching phonetically, letters and simple reading and spelling. All of the animals and the objects in the world are actually made of the letters that spell the word. For example, the character dog, is made up of the letters D-O-G. A hat is actually H-A-T.
Each episode focuses on a different word or sound, while cleverly folded into an entertaining story. My son has already picked up a couple a letter sounds and the spelling of a couple of words including his favorite: C-A-K-E.
I purchased this Box Set because it came with 16 episodes, 8 for each disc and was a much better deal than some of the singular discs which only come with 4 episodes. The DVD menu has the option of playing all the episodes, selecting an episode or the special features, which will play just the "Build a Word" song from each episode. I would highly recommend this series to any parent(s) trying to encourage their child to take an interest in letters, words and early reading.

ALL children should watch Word WorldDec 10, 2009
By C. Spain-temple
"Teaching Mama"
My daughter is absolutely obsessed with Word World. She will be 2 in a few days and has been a dedicated Word Friend for about 4 months now. I am not one for TV shows aimed at little ones, but sometimes you just need something to keep them occupied so you can make dinner! We stumbled across Word World one day on PBS and I thought is was adorable. I then found out from my girl friend (who is a Kindergarten teacher) that her son watched it everyday and was starting to learn reading concepts from it. So, despite not wanting a "TV Zombie" I started letting my little girl watch it. She has loved it from day one. She has learned that those squiggly shapes are called "letters" and when you put them together something happens... which is pretty good for an almost 2 year old! Again, I am not a huge children's television plan and am very picky about what my daughter watches. I am also a special education teacher, so my background makes me even pickier. Word World is one of the few shows I think is worth anything as it is educational, fun, and teaches nice life lessons. We got this DVD for my daughter's birthday and already know she will love it. I HIGHLY recommend Word World to anyone!!!!

Lovely!Mar 18, 2010
By Proud Mom
I purchased this as a gift for my 3 year old. He had watched this program previously on PBS. HE LOVES IT! It is fun, colorful, and educational! He watches the story lines, but also repeats the letters as the characters identify them to put words together. He is now able to identify every letter of the alphabet and is also writing some letters on his own. This is a great buy!
