VHS Movie Reviews of Sesame Street - Do the Alphabet & 1 2 3 Count With Me (2 in 1 Video) [VHS]

Movie Review: A wonderful teaching tool!
Summary: 5 Stars

My daughter loves Sesame Street, so we picked up this video on a whim. Great purchase! At 20 months old, she says her alphabet and counts to 15. It's not just number recognition, either -- she counts items on pages of books and groups of toys. She loves Ernie and Baby Bear, and loves to sing along and dance to the songs. We're very pleased!

Movie Review: Do the Alphabet
Summary: 4 Stars

I have to say my 12 month old daughter loves do the alphabet she tries to sing along with the songs and dances. This video definitely has her attention. I wouldn't say just because baby bear can't pronounce words correctly my child would speak that way. Unless that is all your child will hear day after day. If the child is conversating with you then baby talk will not be an issue. My daughters vocabulary is very advanced for her age and I don't see her having any speech problems because of the way baby bear talks. As the previous parent suggested. The video is just meant to enforce what you are already teaching you child so they see the alphabet in different settings, cards, toys etc. And help them learn. Not teach them how to talk. My daughter loves it and so do I!!!! The song is very simple and easy for any child to remember.

Movie Review: Do the Alphabet - a great disappointment
Summary: 1 Stars

I bought this video along with some of the Elmo's World videos which my son loves, and I was so disappointed after watching it only once. I will not let my 17 month old son watch it as he loves to watch Elmo videos over and over. I don't want him watching Baby Bear doing his "mispwonunciations" while my son is in this stage of learning speech. I do not want my son to listen to the "mispwonunciations" and pick them up and then have to teach him the correct pronunciation later. It's hard enough for them to learn speech but their learning is based on what they hear. Since Sesame Street does not include an age guide on the outside of the video, I'm not sure if they meant for this to be for older children and maybe it isn't a problem when they're older but I plan to donate this video because I wouldn't even give it to another mom to have then go through this. Maybe in a library or a doctor's office where children only view the tape occasionally it would be OK but this was NOT the video for my family to own. I also will not be bringing home anything else with Baby Bear speaking in it.

Movie Review: Must pass this video on to the next generation
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this video for my son when he was three years old and in no time, he mastered the video. Now I am passing this knowledge down to my grandaughter who is 7 months. I can't wait to see how she will re-act to the video. My son had a sing along sesame street record he grew up with and I found myself playing his record for my own enjoyment.

Movie Review: Toddler twins love Do The Alphabet
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased Do The Alphabet for my boy/girl twins when they were 6 months old and they've been mesmerized by it since. They are now 20 months old and are beginning to say the words of the alphabet song along with Big Bird and Baby Bear. I think that this video and some of our other Sesame Street videos (like The Alphabet Jungle Game) have helped them begin to recognize and be able to say the letters sooner. They are particularly fascinated with Baby Bear. I would highly recommend this one!

Summary of Sesame Street - Do the Alphabet & 1 2 3 Count With Me (2 in 1 Video) [VHS]

Do the Alphabet
When Baby Bear must learn his alphabet in one day, Big Bird patiently takes him under his wing in Do the Alphabet. Only "The Method," (a hilarious combination of dance, song, visualization, and group therapy) can help Baby Bear on such short notice. The result is 40 minutes of ABC's Sesame Street style, where vibrant educational cartoons, enthusiastic kids, famous guest stars (here, Billy Joel), and harmonizing Muppets make lasting educational impressions. Children ages 2 to 6 will enjoy the upbeat musical numbers dedicated to various letters; a favorite segment features the Boogie Woogie Piggies and their flashy rendition of the alphabet song. Throughout the well-paced show, Big Bird offers just the right blend of coaching and friendship, much like the ace support-group leader he's mildly spoofing. Hats off to Sesame Street for helping Baby Bear--and his viewing audience--understand that learning takes time, patience, and a team effort. --Liane Thomas

123 Count With Me
Join Ernie at the Furry Arms Hotel for a musical lesson in just how useful counting can be. When Ernie finds and returns a misplaced key, he uses his knowledge of numbers to return the key to the correct guest. As Ernie begins to learn about the hotel business, he finds many common situations in which counting is essential. Throughout the 30-minute video, Ernie and his friends help children learn to count from 1 to 20 with such songs as the jazzy "That's How the Numbers Go," an original version of the Chorus Line show tune "One," and "Rap Song #11." Favorite Sesame Street characters Elmo and the Count are joined by new characters including Ding the Dinger, a furry fellow with a bell on his head, and Benny, the bellboy that responds to Ding the Dinger's dings. Children as young as 18 months will bounce happily along with the catchy tunes, and 2-year-olds will be inspired to count aloud with Ernie. Kids up to age 5 will hone their counting skills and laugh at the increasingly frustrated Benny as he delivers everything from 1 bucket of ice to 15 stampeding elephants! If you're looking for a fun video that teaches counting skills, here it is. --Tami Horiuchi
