Leap Frog - Talking Words Factory 2 - Code Word Caper VHS Leap Frog - Talking Words Factory 2 - Code Word Caper VHS available on November 10 2014 from Amazon for 2.50My son has every Leapfrog DVD and they're all *excellent*. Code Word Caper is no different, showing children long vowel sounds, how the silent "e" changes a word, vowel blends, etc.This DVD explains how that although there are 26 letters in the alphabet, there are far more sounds than just 26.Through an engaging caper at the Complex Word Complex, Tad, Leap and Lily learn about A, E, I, O, U and sometimes Y. At the Silent E Machine, it's explained that the silent "e" makes the first vowel say it's "name". For example, cap and cape, pet and Pete, hid and hide, hope and hope, cut and cute, dim and dime, not and note. There's a fun song reinforcing this principle with lots of examples.Then, at the Ch-Sh-Th Sound Machine, the youngsters are shown how to make blends and how they sound, e.g., chin, chat, ship, shop, thin, and think. Using another fun song, children are shown how consonant combos form blends: "First you take a letter C then you add a letter...

| Author: Pam Tee "mom,wife,fur-mo.. | The other reviews are right. If you like the Talking Words Factory, you should like this follow-on video.In this episode, children are taught about long vowel sounds, 'silent E", blended letters (such as sh and th), as well as blended vowels (the old when two vowels go walking the first one does the talking).In addition, children are shown how vowels are forced to say their names when E's are added to their ends. Fat becomes long-A fate, for example.Worth the money, for sure. Certainly | 5 | |

Next, we learn about the sounds CH, SH and TH, and finally, how to pronounce words where two vowels come together.Of course, given the complexities of the English language, these simple rules don’t work in all cases, but your kids will easily grasp the basic concepts.My one problem is in the opening sequence, where it sounds as if the Professor is incorrectly singing... | 5 | |
