Product Description
In WordWorld words come alive words save the day and words become a child's best friend.Welcome to WordWorld the first preschool series where words are truly the stars of the show! Come along for an adventurous romp into a colorful vibrant world of words with the lovable legible WordFriends animals whose bodies are made up of the letters that spell the word they are.The WordFriends go on comic adventures and face challenges that can only be resolved with the right word. That word is built letter by letter sound by sound during the funky "Build a Word!" song at the end of every episode. Once the word is built it "morphs" or comes alive into the thing it is!Word building reinforces the pre-reading concept that letters (and their sounds) make words and that words have real meaning...and power. The series also introduces literacy concepts that preschoolers will encounter as they become readers such as sounding out letters and rhyming. But most of all WordWorld helps children get excited about reading and see words as their friends.Includes these episodes:Pies Pies Pies!Rocket to the MoonDog Wants to Play BallThere's an Ant in Every GiantSystem Requirements:Run Time: 60 minutes Genre: CHILDREN/FAMILY UPC: 843501007013

Love Word World! June 2, 2008
This is one of the best shows I've seen come out in a long time! It's fun, cute and educational. My children really love this show and never seem to get tired of watching it. My children have started to recognize the words and are spelling them out along with the show...it's wonderful! I plan to buy them all!

The DVD's from Word World are absolutely entertaining and full of learning. My 3 year old daughter absolutely loves these DVD's and she is learning her letters and their sounds. She can even identify certain words like dog, duck, and frog. Of course, her favorite characters, but still for just turning 3 I am quite impressed. I highly recommend these DVD's for any toddler.
This show is the best, bar none March 21, 2008
This is the greatest kid's show of all time (and my daughter has forced me into watching quite a few!) I credit this show (with some added support from SuperWhy) with teaching her how to spell using visual cues - imagine my surprise when my barely-two year old girl looked at me with supreme confidence and spelled words such as "guitar" and "rocket" perfectly. She now spells out virtually every word she sees, thanks to the clever presentation of WordWorld. Can't recommend it highly enough. All I can say is "Make more DVD's!!"
WONDERFUL! Perfect for entertainment and education! March 12, 2008
This is the best program PBS has had in it's programming schedule! My kids are learning to spell and being entertained at the same time. They ask for wordworld all the time! The ability to visualize the letters of an object in the graphical depiction is brilliant! I highly suggest it for children who are exploring letters and beginning to put them together to make words. EXCELLENT!
This is not a movie- It's episodes March 7, 2008

I agree with the other reviewers. Word World is a show that parents can enjoy with their children without going batty. The music is catchy, the subjects of each episode are interesting. My 3 year old learned how to spell stop & several other words after seeing this show only a few times. Yes, he is only memorizing at this point, but it's a start.
***Only one negative here....this DVD is 3 TV episodes. You can DVR this at home if you get PBS. I almost bought this thinking it was a 60min movie, but I see now it is only episodes that we already have on DVR. I won't waste my money. Glad I noticed. Buy it if you don't have a DVR. Great shows
