Our Thoughts

"I wonder what is inside?"
A Nickelodeon Let's Learn Patterns and Shapes DVD
This is a great variety of some very popular characters. S is a fan of Umizoomi, especially Bot, and Dora, while knows a little less about Kai-Lan and Blue. I was excited to see such a great, educational theme, perfect for preschoolers who are getting ready to head off to school. The focus of all the episodes is really on the topic of patterns and shapes, which S is pretty confident with. These episodes give her a little more concrete practice in a fun and silly way. I think this will also be a good fit for C when she gets a bit older, with the characters and format, she will be learning in no time. I am interested in checking out the other Let's Learn DVDs now that we have seen this one.

I need to pick up a copy of this DVD. I'm really impressed that Blues Clues was included....it was an absolute favorite of my sons years ago, and I'd really love for my baby girl to enjoy it too. She is already a fan of Dora and Team Umizoomi...
ReplyDeleteI loved books growing up too, as do my kids, books will never go out of style!
