Okay, so Little Man is learning to read. He is officially
five years old and begins Kindergarten in the fall, so it is time. He has been
attending the Mother’s Day Out program at our Church and does very well there.
At home we have worked with him for some time on writing and reading, but did
not want to push too hard. Just like all five year olds, his attention span is
short, so we try to work with him, when we can. So, I am ALWAYS looking for
educational games, movies, and music for him. That is why I just LOVE Rock 'n Learn.
Rock 'n Learn’s
philosophy is to teach kids by putting educational material to hot and hip
music to fun and bright animation, allowing kids to learn, without realizing
they are learning. They have produced over fifty audio/book and video programs
that help teach children math, phonics, early childhood, social studies,
Spanish, test-taking strategies, writing, and science, across the US, Canada,
and other countries. You know, I remember years ago, my Daddy made the comment
that if I could just learn my multiplication tables like I did the latest New
Kids on the Block song, I would be getting strait A’s – well, that is the same
concept as Rock 'n Learn – learning to catchy music. (By the way, thank you for
not snickering at my New Kids comment.)
Now, if you remember, last year we reviewed and loved the
Rock 'n Learn Sight Words, DVD, so we were very excited when
Rock 'n Learn sent
us the Letter Sounds DVD to review.
The day the movie arrived, both Little Miss and Little Man
jumped for joy, shouting “Look Mama, another Sight Words, our favorite!” Ha,
ha, ha. I put the movie in and both kids sat in Little Mans room and watched
the WHOLE movie in one sitting. Now, if you have kids, you know a movie has to
be engaging for a three and five-year-old to sit through the whole thing! I sat
and watched a bit and could understand why my kids were so enthralled; not only
is the movie full of catchy music, it is bright, colorful, and fast paced, so
that the kids don’t get bored. Well, within a couple days of watching the
movie, Little Man was dancing and singing along with the movie, easily trying
to sound out the letter sounds, as the movie instructed.
What is even better is that one night at a restaurant,
little man pointed to a poster on the wall and tried to sound out the words…
then shouted, “Look, I am doing it, like I do with my movie!”
Okay - check out this short video to see how Little Man put his DS down to watch the video - Priceless!
I can honestly tell you that
Rock 'n Learn is fun way for
your children to learn. So, whether you have a child just starting in preschool
or one that is struggling taking a test or needs help in math, history, or
science, I suggest, checking out
