Sesame Street - Do the Alphabet

Sesame Street - Do the Alphabet


Starring:Sesame Street
Studio: Sony Wonder (Video)
Product Type: DVD

Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
When Baby Bear must learn his alphabet in one day, Big Bird patiently takes him under his wing in Do the Alphabet. Only "The Method," (a hilarious combination of dance, song, visualization, and group therapy) can help Baby Bear on such short notice. The result is 40 minutes of ABC's Sesame Street style, where vibrant educational cartoons, enthusiastic kids, famous guest stars (here, Billy Joel), and harmonizing Muppets make lasting educational impressions. Children age 2 to 6 will enjoy the upbeat musical numbers dedicated to various letters; a favorite segment features the Boogie Woogie Piggies and their flashy rendition of the alphabet song. Throughout the well-paced show, Big Bird offers just the right blend of coaching and friendship, much like the ace support group leader he's mildly spoofing. Hats off to Sesame Street for helping Baby Bear--and his viewing audience--understand that learning takes time, patience, and a team effort. --Liane Thomas

5 out of 5 stars My son LOVES this DVD.......2007-06-11

My son LOVES this DVD. He wants to watch it about 100 times a day! Personally, I think it is a very cute video. I remember some of the songs from when I was little. It is very entertaining and upbeat.

4 out of 5 stars Great Learning Tool.......2007-03-14

Purchased this for my Grandson who is 4 months old. He has watched it three times and is very fascinated with it even though the theme is too advanced for him. However, it will become a great learning tool in the near future. Sesame Street is the greatest.

4 out of 5 stars Very nice but doesn't feature Elmo at all! .......2007-03-08

My kid loves Elmo so I usually get Sesame street DVDs for him to watch Elmo. It was a bit disappointing that Elmo doesn't feature in this one. But he does get glued to it all the same with all the singing and dancing. In terms of educational content and approach to teaching the alphabet to kids, I think it's excellent and is quite entertaining too. The Alphabet support group idea adds a nice touch which I doubt my kid would understand now but had me laughing to bits the first time I watched it.

5 out of 5 stars My grandson loves it!.......2007-01-11

I bought this for my grandson, who is just getting interested in Sesame Street and letters. He went on a 9-hour drive for our Thanksgiving visit and his parents report that he was very entertained by it.

5 out of 5 stars AAA rating.......2007-01-11

I bought this DVD for my son when he was 15 months. I had been trying to teach him the alphabet & he was doing good. This DVD is great!!! By the time my son was 22 months he could not only recite the alphabet, he could actually recognize each letter randomly. I love it. Both my boys love it. They broke our first one by accident and I had to buy another one the very next day.
