      Yes... Richard Scarry's Best Counting Video is one of the best. Suitable for kids under 2years old. I'm not sure if Mr Men is so captivating, though.
      Yes...My 2 yr old only like the part where they flash the letters. The 'hunt' itself where they went around finding related words, the tone of the narrator (Mr Clever) is somewhat boring. :roll: So i reckon it should be more suitable for 3 or 4 yr olds with longer attention span.
      Since Richard Scarry's video is not costly (and with CKS' 'endorsement' πŸ˜› ), think I'll probably get the whole series. πŸ™‚

        I bought 2 DVDs locally. Then bought 4 more in the Little Einsteins series from amazon. They teach a piece of classical music, introducing the composer's name, important landmarks in the world like the leaning tower of Pisa, Great wall of China, the Pyraminds of Egypt, etc, art, and even some musical notations (allegro, adagio,diminuendo, etc). Very educational.
        My 2 yr old is now crazy over Little Einsteins, but there were only a few titles available locally - guess I have to get from amazon too. He only likes certain 'episodes' though.

          Saw http://www.amazon.co.uk/Numberjacks-Are-Their-Way/dp/B000MV835G at Popular.


          Amazon's review seems good. Any parents tried this dvd before?

            I have not heard of it before, but the Numberjacks series sounds interesting from the reviews. Probably will grab one to see for myself. Thanks, jedamum, for the heads up.
