This DVD is awesome. The great literacy lessons continue…and these are some of the cutest WW episodes we’ve ever seen. My kids love them, especially the “monster maker” music video at the end- so fun!
Highly recommended!!

WordWorld is great, and the DVDs for my two-year-old are awesome. She says “Woof” when she wants to watch this DVD because Dog is so cute, and she spells along with the animated Build-A-Word sequences. The content is top-notch!
What I do have a very big problem with is the “Hopla” trailers that run automatically at the end of the WordWorld disks. It’s pretty sneaky to piggy back another series for toddlers at the end of a series this good. It’s just an unwelcome commercial, which I shouldn’t have to deal with since I *bought* the DVD. I definitely DO NOT want my daughter to watch the inane Hopla series and would never buy it. Unfortunately, the jingle is permanently stuck in my head after hearing the first few seconds three or four times in the background before I could stop the DVD.

I really adore this entire series, which we discovered on public TV while visiting the United States with our kids. Most of my previous “nostalgia” purchases (eg, Sesame Street) sadly tended to enchant me more than the kids, but this one seems to be more in tune with the groove of the modern toddler and as a parent I see that it has been a good support for vocabulary and spelling. Also, I love the Klezmer-inspired theme music. When the disc is over and you have that playing in the background for ten minutes until you can get around to turning off the darn thing, this is an important criteria.

This DVD contains two episodes of Word World that are seperated with a song about making a monster. Both episodes are great; and I love that they both are Halloween episodes. Most DVD’s like this have one Halloween and then just a second episode that might vaguely take place in the fall. Both of these are actual Halloween episodes.
However, on the DVD, when you hit “Play” the first episode plays, then the song, then the second episode, then commercials for other DVD’s start to play. The commercials seem, if you’re not playing close attention, like kids’ songs. But they are actually commercials for other DVD’s. I don’t like that I have to spring up the moment the second show is over if I don’t want my child exposed to countless advertisements. That’s the reason I didn’t give it five stars.
The episodes, though, are great and I would recommend this to a friend.

Just a great DVD for toddlers. Love the PBS show and having a DVD to watch when you want any time, any where is wonderful.
