Children will fall in love with these wonderful characters as they aMeet the Letters.a Meet the Letters is a powerful tool designed to teach babies and toddlers the alphabet during an opportune window of time when they are learning to talk. A recent study of over 50 babies and toddlers, who watched Meet the Letters daily, resulted in over 90% of these children having complete upper and lowercase letter recognition by or before the end of the two-month study. Many learned their letters in less than two weeks! Most impressively, nearly 70% of children under 24 months of age mastered the alphabet. You will be amazed at how easily your little ones can learn their letters!

Really a great Learning Tool but annoying September 9, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The first impression I had was "How Annoying!" It really just repeats the names of the letters in the same boring voice (most of the time anyway) while changing the look of the letters. HOWEVER, it IS very helpful with learning letters. During the first viewing, my 22 month old immediately started repeating what they were saying. Frankly, I was surprised. I didn't think she could say all of the sounds. I don't always show the entire alphabet but the DVD gives you the option to start it at the beginning, middle, or end of the alphabet. (For shorter attention spans) Also, I discovered later, that if the sequential alphabet gets on your nerves too much.. .you can just put on the flashcard part. I find this much more tolerable. The voices are "fun" and they randomly pick the letters. If you're looking for good practice with the letters then I recommend it.
Amazing!! May 27, 2008 My 18m old started watching this DVD, along with shapes, letters and colors at 16m. She now knows all her colors, can count to 10 and has all letter recognition. My friends and family are amazed with what she knows at such a young age. The characters are cute and colorful but not over the top. Some kids like it and some kids don't depending on their attention span. My daughter actually asks for this DVD over mickey mouse, dora etc. I also purchased all the books to go along with the DVD's. They are also her favorite books. She loves to lift the flaps. I would suggest buying one and seeing if your child is engaged. . if she is I suggest buying the whole series.
Did not hold their attention May 15, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My twin 2yr olds liked this one a bit, but I think they found this boring since they stopped paying attention even on their first time watching it. They like the Leap Letter Factory a lot better. They have been watching Letter Factory for a few weeks and still love it. I am sure Meet the Letters is more educational, but if the don't watch it won't help anyway.
My 2 year old knows all her letters! April 28, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love love love it. My daughter is not yet 2 and she knows all her letters, upper and lower. She watched this maybe 10 or 15 times over the last few months and now she knows them all! It is a great tool with extra features like the alphabet song and virtual flash cards. The only downside, if there is one, is that once she learned her letters that was it, no more interest in watching it. I am totally ok with that, we use other methods to keep her practicing. Just be prepared, if your child is a fast learner this will serve it's purpose in a short period and then be ready to pass on for another child's benefit. We have also used "Meet the Colors" with the same results, and are now working on "Meet the Numbers."
Letters Review April 22, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My three year old liked the video for the first two weeks and his letter recognition has increased - he still isn't able to name them all (thinks q is p, etc). After two weeks, he is a little tired of it.
