Movie Reviews of Leap Frog - Math Circus

Movie Review: Leapfrog has made better
Summary: 4 Stars

Though this is full of educational information like the other Leap Frog DVDs, they have changed gears a little bit. First of all, Professor Quigly is completely different (different, annoying voice and different mannerisms). Second, there aren't really any familial-type interactions between Leap, Lily, and Tad like there are in the other videos. My daughter still likes it (she's 7 months), but it feels like it was more of an afterthought to the Reading/Writing videos.

On the positive side, it does have an interesting method to teach math. I cannot yet vouch for the effectiveness of the method.

Movie Review: Great Series
Summary: 4 Stars

I love these Leap Frog DVD's. I don't think this one is as good as the Reading/Letter one's but it is still good. My daughter (3 years old) doesn't stay in front of the tv watching it like she does the other ones. I think it is a little hard for her so she doesn't pay as much attention. The ideas go pretty fast for this age I think. A little hard for them to grasp all at once. I think she will get it over time though.

Movie Review: Tries to cover too much in one show
Summary: 4 Stars

I think this DVD tries to cover too much content: counting, adding, and subtracting. It jumps from counting, to counting in 10's and mixing up adding and subtracting, and can only serve as a mere INTRODUCTION to numbers/math. Also the sound quality was not as good as the other Leap Frog DVD's I own. Nonetheless, my kids still request to see it occasionally and they have learned to count in 10's up to 100.

Movie Review: Math Circus for Pre-schooler
Summary: 4 Stars

My grandson is almost 5 years old and in a structured pre-school. They are studying beginning math concepts. This video holds his interest and has been helpful to his learning. It provides visual and auditory learning components, which seem quite helpful for a youngster his age.

Movie Review: Good but could be better
Summary: 4 Stars

The only "real" problem I have with this video is that it doesn't count up to 20...only 1-10 and it's only 30 minutes long. My son is 3.7yrs. old and he already knows how to count to 10. My son really liked it and asked to watch it again after it was over.
