The talking words DVD teaches how to put 3 letters together to make words. Code Word Caper DVD teaches more advance phonics rules like the silent e, and double vowels like oa, ai, etc. These DVDs including letter factory are essential for learning phonics.
Story book factory teaches the child how to read sentences and understand punctuation. Maths circus is about counting, addition and subtraction. These 2 are not as good as the other 3, but are still much more educational than Hi-5, Dora or Barney DVDs. In fact, my kids do not watch any other DVDs except the 5 Leapfrog DVDs and Richard Scarry's counting video. They ask to watch these DVDs over and over again for more than 2 years.
But then if the child has been watching many other DVDs, then they may not find the Leapfrog DVDs more fun than other DVDs, even though they can learn so much more.
