(V. Bondarenko, 2009-11-02) Probably one of the best DVDs because its not like other learning DVDs I've seen that seem to promote attention deficit disorder instead of learning ability.
(Lisa Barthuly, 2009-10-22) Young Minds is a great DVD for assisting in the teaching of numbers & counting for little ones--in an engaging manner! My son loves all the pictures and images of 'frogs', 'trucks' etc--and counts along with the DVD and identifies the numbers/objects/images. I like that this DVD uses real images and real music in the backround, rather than cartoon characters, loud noise, and gibberish in images that go 1000 mph! If they are going to watch something on 'the screen' make it something of worthwhile substance that teaches them something good! Young Minds is a winner in our homeschool family, we've really enjoyed it and see results!!
(Whitney Baugh, 2009-10-16) Let me be completely honest- I dislike math. I really, truly dislike it- more than any other subject. Compared to math, I adore literature, science, and history. I never want my son to feel the same. I hope he will enjoy math as much as other subjects. For this reason, when we were asked to review the Numbers and Counting DVD by Young Minds, I gladly accepted. While he isn't old enough to grasp the concept, we have viewed the DVD. I am very excited to say that I can see us using this DVD in the coming years. The entire program is set to music like Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart which holds Bryson's attention like you wouldn't believe. The thing I really love about Numbers & Counting is that it also helps teach colors, sounds of everyday items like trains, and animals. I am truly amazed at all this little DVD has packed into it and how well it flows. The little boy's voice is also the cutest thing ever- I love the way he says "helicopter!" I cannot say enough good things about the Numbers and Counting DVD. I think it will a huge asset to our learning routine. As a bonus, there are puzzles, connect the dots, and guess the animal games.
(K. Coutu, 2009-10-07) (PLEASE NOTE: I RECEIVED A SAMPLE DVD TO WRITE THIS REVIEW) I have always been a fan of educational programming and DVDs. They have been a great way to supplement anything I had been working on with my oldest son, whether it was the alphabet, colors, counting, etc . . . Now with the twins, I must rely even more on such tools to reinforce what I try to teach them because it is extremely difficult to get quiet one on one time with each one. This is why I welcomed the chance to try out the new Math Tutor: Young Minds-Numbers and Counting DVD. What I thought about this Numbers and Counting DVD for toddlers: 1) I like that this DVD uses a variety of objects to illustrate each number. Chances are that there will be something that your child will show an affinity towards. These objects include animals, foods, transportation vehicles, and more. 2) The benefits of this DVD are not limited to learning about numbers and counting to 10. Other concepts taught by this DVD are sounds, colors, and action words. 3) Although my toddlers were most excited when they saw objects that they recognized, I like that the DVD includes things that may be new to a toddler, such as windmills, jellyfish, and asparagus. This just offers more opportunity for learning. 4) In addition to pointing out the things they recognized, my toddlers liked imitating the animal sounds. 5) The classical music in the background included works by Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, and more. Although the music was beautiful, it was secondary to the visual content, which was the only thing holding my toddlers' attention. 6) Because the twins can only count up to 3, every number after 4 lost a little more of their attention. I expect this to change each time we watch the DVD as they become more adept at remembering and recognizing additional numbers.
(Katherine Whiting, 2009-10-05) MathTutorDVD & Jason Gibson have done it again--creating engaging math videos for children of all ages to learn from. As a more mellow version of the Baby Einstein series, this DVD is perfect for any child under 5. A succession of colorful images of familiar objects and a child's voice counting along with them is the perfect way to get your child comfortable with counting. The images in the DVD are exactly what young children need to keep their attention. Frogs, butterflies, turtles, planes, trucks, and more. Not only do these images appeal to young children, the DVD also provides sounds for each graphic, as well as information about what some of them do. It also includes colors. It kept the children's attention throughout the entire DVD and they were happy to count along. A few of the children also called out the name of some of the animals. In addition to the counting, this DVD has a bonus featured section which allows kids to view puzzles, connect the dots, and (my favorite), the "Guess the Animal" segment. This segment is the most interactive of the bonus features. It gives children a riddle, telling them more about the animal, while zooming out of the image until finally revealing what it is. The kids were yelling out what they thought the animal was, and were so happy when they succeeded with the correct answer. Since I received my first MathTutor DVD almost 2 years ago, I have had nothing but wonderful things to say about MathTutorDVD and Jason Gibson. He understands what it takes for children to comprehend math. He is great with repetition and has helped many students master their math skills and feel confident in the subject. I believe this DVD is just another great addition to the entire MathTutorDVD collection. I would highly recommend this DVD to anyone with children under age 5. It introduces important concepts, and the repetition of the numbers and counting will surely help your child feel more confident in their learning. Katherine Whiting [...]
