Description
Teaches vowels and consonants, word building, rhyming and vocabulary. Leap, Lily and Tad journey to the Word Factory where the Word Whammer, Sticky-Ick-O-Rama and more amazing machines take letters and make them into words. Humoruos songs and an out-of-control word machine add to the fun.
Amazon.com
Building words is an exciting and empowering experience for young children (and frogs) who have mastered individual letters and their sounds. When young Tad wants to nominate his Dad for a "Best Dad" contest he asks his brother Leap and sister Lily for some help filling out the application. The three young frogs go see Professor Quigley at their Father's Talking Word Factory for a little instruction and get to watch the "Sticky-ick-o-rama" and the "Word Whammer" machines at work. Tad quickly discovers that vowels act as the glue that sticks letters together and then learns to combine individual letter sounds to make three-letter words, use common ending sounds to create rhyming words, and blend letter sounds to make even longer rhyming words. Phonemic awareness, vocabulary building, and rhyming are entertaining and fun thanks to familiar Leap Pad characters, colorful animation, and short songs. An interactive word game challenges young viewers to fill in the missing first letter in a variety of three-letter words. This program is a great next step for graduates of Leap Frog: Talking Letters Factory and children ages 3 to 6. Tami Horiuchi

 Leap Frog Talking Words Factory September 20, 2008
Good product as a followup to the letter sound dvd. Not quite as interesting for my grandchild but I think that is a developmental thing.He really loves Letter Factory so I know he will grow into Words Factory.
Stick with it! September 7, 2008
I purchased this after reading the great reviews on Amazon. My daughter was 21 months old and starting to talk more so I thought this might be an entertaining way to learn. She didn't want anything to do with it the first 2 times I put it in. Now, a month later, she is requesting it! She makes some of the sounds of the letters to tell me that is the DVD she wants to watch. I think this will last a while as far as keeping her entertained as she progresses with her speech, then into spelling. Well done video!
Good September 5, 2008
My son (almost 3 yrs) likes this DVD. After watching parts of it a couple times, he was making the letter sounds with them. It seems to hold his attention.
Major Progress in Two Weeks July 27, 2008
This product is one of the best purchases that I have made for my 3 year-old daughter. Before I purchased Letter Factory, my daughter was struggling with her alphabet. Now after watching the DVD for two weeks she is able to not only recite her alphabet; she also knows which sounds all of the different letters make. I noticed improvement after she watched it the very first time. This educational tool is simply remarkable.

My son loves this video he's watch it over and over. He now spell and say the words before the character in the video do.
