tntgoodwin Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 (edited) Has anyone seen this show? We found it on Netflix, and my girls are addicted...ever since she started watching a few weeks ago, my oldest's phonics abilities have dramatically improved. Don't know if it is causation or correllation, but just wanted to put it out there. Edited March 27, 2011 by tntgoodwin dramatically, not drastically.

MaMa2005 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Word World came out when DS was three. He was reading by age 4 and I give a lot of credit to Word World for helping with the blending of letter sounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristusG Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Very cute show! My girls used to watch it and they enjoyed it. I don't think it really helped them with letter sounds, but I'm sure it helps some kids! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom2J112903 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I can not remember how old J was when it came out but he is reading above grade level and was *addicted* to that show. I can say that he started sounding out words shortly after it came on. We LOVE it and I am bummed that at age 7.4yrs he is "too old for a baby show now Momma". It is SUCH a cute show!!!

Karen in CO Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 My youngest has discovered it on Netflix streaming. I think she enjoys figuring out the word before the characters in the show do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xuzi Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 *I* love this show. :lol: My kids do too. My two older kids both learned that s and h makes the "shhhh" sound from the "Sh-sh-shark!" episode. And the little song Frog sings to tell the difference between a "b" and a "d" is one I often hear my DD singing when she's doing her spelling and trying to remember how to write the right letter. It's an awesome show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Researcher Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I love this show! My DD enjoys it and I like that I can let her watch something and not feel so guilty about tv time.:tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bug's Mom Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Dd LOVED WordWorld! We then moved on to Word Girl which her dad & I may enjoy even more than she does! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennifer3141 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 My kids LOVE this show. I never thought to look for it on Netflix and I've been buying all the DVDs. Doh. My kids take their notebooks into the room and pause it to write down all the words. Too cute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
