2011 Holiday Gift Guide: Rock 'N Learn: Letter Sounds DVD Review and Giveaway! - CLOSED!

 
As you all know by now, I am a huge supporter of Rock 'N Learn learning materials! We were just given a copy of their newest DVD: Letter Sounds! Sam is really starting to learn his letters. Now we just need to work on the sounds that the letters make. Thankfully I have the help of this new Rock 'N Learn DVD: Letter Sounds! The recommended ages for this DVD are 4-7 years. Sam is 3 1/2, but I don't mind giving him an early start! I love how this DVD works on teaching our children the sounds letters make, and then puts the letters and sounds together to teach kids how to sound out a word.. and read! I wish I would have had this DVD when Bella was younger! I think it would have really helped her to learn letter sounds and how to read faster! She's a good reader now thankfully, but I think that it's never too early to introduce reading to our kids! With the daycare kids, this is a great resource for me to teach them their letters as well! When I am making lunch, or otherwise preoccupied, I love popping in Rock 'N Learn DVDs for them! This way I know they are learning while they are enjoying some fun tv time! Give the gift of learning this holiday with the fun and educational CDs and DVDs from Rock 'N Learn!


Program Description:

Energetic music and fun games build excitement about learning to read. Letter Sounds covers the most common sound that each letter makes. The completely new Letter Sounds DVD with its "on-screen mouth" shows how to form each sound. Letter Sounds CD comes with a full-color illustrated book. By the end of these programs, students are combining letters to read words and even simple sentences. Ages 4–7.

Approx. 62 minutes (DVD video);
Approx. 51 minutes (audio CD)



More about Rock 'N Learn:

Rock 'N Learn began as an idea that would help children learn by putting educational material to music with a current sound -- the kind of music that kids enjoy and find motivating. Now with over 50 products, we have sold millions of audio/book and video programs to teachers and parents throughout the United States, Canada, and other countries. 

Rock 'N Learn programs help students learn math, phonics, reading, early childhood, social studies, Spanish, test-taking strategies, writing, and science. Our DVDs incorporate music with exciting, colorful imagery.

Headquartered in Conroe, Texas, just north of Houston, Rock 'N Learn is owned and operated by its founders, Richard and Brad Caudle.

Working as a school psychologist in 1986, Richard saw the need for multi-sensory learning programs using the styles of music that kids love. He consulted his younger brother Brad, an accomplished musician, to record their first program to help kids learn multiplication facts. Strong sales of this recording in the school specialty and book markets led to other programs and the start of a successful company.

Richard and Brad never varied from their number one goal of providing children with programs that would make learning easier and fun. Brad's wife Melissa, a former second-grade teacher, writes material and coordinates educational research for Rock 'N Learn. Richard's wife, Kathie, manages our sales and marketing team.

Rock 'N Learn programs have received numerous awards such as Dr. Toy, Parents' Choice, iParenting, National Parenting Publications, Learning Magazine Teachers' Choice, Early Childhood News, National Parenting Center, and Parent's Guide to Children's Media. Our programs lead in the areas of quality and customer satisfaction based on surveys of school supply stores.

As documented in case studies by numerous school districts, Rock 'N Learn programs work. The overwhelmingly positive response from parents, teachers, and kids generates tremendous word-of-mouth support. By consulting with educators and featuring talented vocalists and performers, Rock 'N Learn will continue to develop quality audio and video programs that hold interest and help kids learn.


Rock 'N Learn also has some FREE websites to help your children learn!
