Three good discs and one dud, now in a slimmed-down collection!
This set includes four DVDs originally released between 2011 and 2013, starring Leapfrog mascot Scout and his friends Violet, Penny, Eli, Axel and Dash. The four discs include "Phonics Farm", "Number Land", "Adventures in Shapeville Park" and "The Magnificent Museum of Opposite Words", which are exactly the same as the individual releases. So if you're new to the party or only have one of these, it's a cheap and easy way to get them all in one package. Together, they aim to teach basic math, vocabulary, reading and comprehension skills for kids approximately aged 2-4.
The first three are good to excellent, with interesting characters, colorful animation and fun songs (and since they're already available, detailed reviews aren't hard to find). The last one, "Magnificent Museum", is the weakest of the bunch: it's hard to follow, not very intuitive and overall just sloppy compared to better outings like "Shapeville Park". But overall, this four-disc set is a good value for...
So educational you don't mind your kids watcing tv
My children have learned so much from the Leap Frog movies. I've always been obsessed on them not watching too much TV and really careful on what they watch (it must be educational). But I don't mind them watching these. Both just love all the programs.
Great Deal
We purchased this on Amazon for a great price. I pop one of these videos on in the car for my two year old while I'm running errands. I figure this is better for him to watch and is educational. The videos are very repetitive, which is great for learning and I think it's great he shouts out the answers when the TV asks him questions. He is definitely learning his numbers and shapes without even realizing he's learning.
