Super Why!

Perfect fit to help build reading skills.

Tivo has many on "save until delete" because my preschooler loves them.

As their website says it best, "SUPER WHY takes an innovative approach to learning by promoting reading as a powerful, meaningful experience for children aged 3 to 6 years old. We created the original show based on our expert knowledge of preschoolers' level of development, the entertaining features of television and the importance of a strong literacy curriculum. The interactive format encourages kids to actively participate in each episode. As they watch SUPER WHY they are completely absorbed in the adventure of the story while engaging in challenging games and activities. This format enables children to practice the critical skills that they need to learn to read. The unique balance between using interactivity to practice key literacy skills and telling engaging stories that make literacy relevant to children's own lives is a powerful new way to teach reading."

Very well done show. We are hooked. Super Readers to the rescue! PBS is back in our line up with this one.

A huge mess of Pbs Kids i cannot believe I used to like this show back in 2007 which is the same year that Out Of Jimmy's Head and Chowder came out even though I like Chowder and i hate Out Of Jimmy's Head, this show is dull and cheesy for me. I would rather watch better 2007 shows like Chowder, My Friends Tigger And Pooh and Sea Princesses better than this awful show.

I recently had the opportunity to watch Super Why!, a popular children's television show aimed at teaching kids how to read and solve problems. While I appreciate the show's good intentions, I couldn't help but notice some of its shortcomings. For starters, the characters felt a bit one-dimensional and needed more depth. The repetitive plot lines, which follow a predictable formula, could become monotonous. The show's bright and colorful animations are visually appealing and help to hold one's attention. I also enjoyed the catchy songs, which are fun to sing. In my opinion, this show is an excellent choice for young children who are just starting to learn how to read. However, it may be less engaging for older kids or adults looking for a more complex and nuanced viewing experience.

This was one of my childhood shows! But, why is there an offscreen kid audience who shout out the answers? It kinda annoys me. Example: One of the super readers ask "What word/letter is this?" to the viewers. Then, after a little while, One or more kids say the answer. And when Super Why says "Let's put the Super Letter in our super-duper... COMPUTER!", The kids say "COMPUTER" along with him. Why's that? Is that because by having kids shout out answers and participate in the chants, the creators aim to create a sense of connection and active participation? It might seem annoying to some viewers, especially adults and me.

My son loves this show. He is 26 months old and is starting to read. He has the alphabet memorized and can identify letters when he sees them. This show is helping him to identify sounds of letters and how to form words with them. I don't really enjoy children's television shows myself. It is not about how interesting a show is to the parents, it is about how the children like the show and the redeeming qualities that the show contains. Some of the complaints are that it is repetitive and that the story needs to change to solve a particular issue. Children learn from repetition so they need this type of storyline. The story is about books and words so, of course, stories will need to change. It also teaches kids that books are fun and reading is fun. To those who think that you cannot look to a book to find a resolution to a problem, you are incorrect. Books are great to read to identify problems and find resolutions. I hope this show lasts a long time. Kudos to the creators.
