EDITORIAL REVIEWS
Parents' Choice Gold Award
Use this video as the yardstick against which a flooded field of mediocre
preschool videos should be measured. Basic learning skills are introduced in
an environment of pleasurable songs and colorful visuals. A steady diet of
Hap Palmer, the expert on preschool learning through music and movement,
is highly recommended. -- Yvonne Coleman

Don't be concerned that this video doesn't have familiar characters on the
cover (no purple dinos, no brightly colored space alien babies). This proven
series of colorful musical videos is a winner, and the latest, Baby Songs ABC,
123 is no exception. Designed for toddlers to 2 to 6-year-olds, this video
combines color and movement--and, importantly, other children -- to help
young viewers remember their numbers and the alphabet. Children's music
writer Hap Palmer has provided songs that are genuinely catchy and, like the
classic "ABC" song, which helped nearly every English-speaking child learn
the alphabet, kids are learning as they're singing. Palmer specializes in
purposeful but engaging rhyme and alliteration to encourage kids to sing along,
sing on their own, and prepare for reading skills. Mostly nonprecocious children
highlight each segment, often dressed alike in brightly colored garb. Featured
songs include "Alphabet In Motion," "Tap Your Sticks," "Shapes That Surround
You,"Colors In Motion," "We Are All Alike”, “Bean Bag Alphabet Rag" (which
also helps kids identify body parts), "Jig Along Shapes,” and "Numbers Can
Tell About You." -- N.F. Mendoza
