Old graphics but the kids love it.. October 8, 2007

I bought this video over eight years ago for my niece. Now my kids are enjoying it. It is basic but that is just the way it should be sometimes.
My boys can't get enough of this video! July 8, 2005

I have two young boys, ages 2 and 3 1/2. I picked this video up since they are very in to colors and shapes and I wanted my older son to slow down when counting. They LOVE this video and can't get enough of it! It's great for both kids because the beginning is more basic and the ending advanced shapes section is more appropriate for my gifted older son. He likes to walk around the house telling me things like, "Mommy, a trapezoid is a triangle with the top cut off" and "A nonagon is a shape with nine sides." Buy this one for your kids!

Okay, we got this video and I thought it was awful, but what do I, as an adult, know!?! The kids (girl 4 and boy 2) loved it. AND after awhile it started to grow on me too.
Most importantly it accomplished its mission. My youngest who had previously shown no interest in colors and shapes --other than to jump and slide on them-- now knows his stuff. Not just circles and squares but octagons and hexagons too. In addition, it teaches how colors can be mixed to produce new colors.
Not the slickest graphics, but I definitely recommend this for action oriented learners who will sit still long enough for a video.

I bought this video for my 2 year, 3 month old grandson and he absolutely loves it. I was amazed that he responded to it the way he did. When I ask him what he wants to watch the answer 9 times out of 10 is "color & shapes". Not only has he mastered almost all of the material on the tape he just loves to watch it over and over. We were putting his puzzles away the other day and there was a shape puzzle we were cleaning up. I was trying to put a pentagon shape in the wrong space and my grandson said, "no mom-mom, red octagon". He was right, I was flabbergasted. He's not even 2 1/2 yet!! I'm on line tonight to buy another Rock 'N Learn tape.

We bought this video along with 3 other VHS tapes of the same company (Nursery Rhymes, Letter Sounds, Alphabet) when my Daughter was 21 months old. Even before turning 2, she started identifying some of the shapes, though she can't pronounce them well (retatangle, tiangle, okkagon etc) and she can identify and say red, yellow, blue, green, orange, white, black, brown, purple and pink. She watched it numerous times a day. With this tape on, feeding time is so easy and quick.
