Word World

This show does a great job of keeping my toddler engaged and teaching him letters and sounds while I'm busy. Since he started watching this show he learned most of the alphabet and phonetic sounds very quickly as well as many vocabulary words.

To be completely honest the only reason I looked this up was to make sure it existed. I honestly thought it Ming's have been a false memory or a fever dream. This show was insane. Not in a good way or in a bad way. I have hardly an opinion. The ducks were offensive because I come from the south and why are they made of letters all the animals who are sentient by the way are full of holes it is very disturbing. Do they feel pain these animals made of letters filled with holes forced to spend eternity spelling to make things appear we can tell by the baking that if you spell you can create anything there fore if some one would want to say start a nuclear war all they would have to do is find some letters and say N U K E the detonate it killing millions. All in all the show is very disturbing.

I am not fully decided on this one yet. I like the idea of characters and items being made out of words. However, like one of the other posters on here, I find duck annoying (especially his horrible fake twangy accent). I also find the plot line slow. However, my 4 year old loves it. She likes that everything is made of letters. It doesn't keep her from reading --- she is reading at a 2nd or 3rd grade level. However, some days mom needs a little break and some days she gets to watch 20-30 minutes of TV. So I think if she likes it, I'd rather her watch this than a lot of other cartoons out there. I like LIttle Einsteins and My Friends TIgger and Pooh, but I don't like Phineas and Ferb and never gotten into the WOnderpets.

Wow. I caught this show by chance one day and was so impressed I had to look it up to watch it again. What a wonderful and fun way to teach spelling! In this computed-animated show, all of the animal friends, main scenery, and "props" are made out of the letters of their word. You have to see it to truly appreciate it. There is a dog made out of the letters d-o-g, a house formed from the letters for house, etc. Heck, during a camping episode if you look closely you will see that the flames of the fire are made out of f-i-r-e. The adventures of these animal friends center around building items from the letters that form their word. For example, when the pig is "baking" a birthday cake, he grabs the letters c, a, k and e then when he puts them together, the word animates to form a cake (with frosting!) out of the letters. In another episode, the frog and dog are building a tent, and the tent won't go up until, after several tries, they finally sound out the word and put the letters in the correct order. The animated adventures are split into roughly 10 minute segments, perfect for the very young age group that is obviously targeted.

If the quality of the show stays the same as the few episodes I've seen, I'd buy this series on DVD in a second.

I wasn't a huge fan of this when I was in the target audience. I thought it was mildly funny but ultimately annoying. I only watched it if there was nothing else to watch and avoided watching it. Its stupid and the characters are annoying. The animation isn't very good and neither is the voice acting from what I can remember. Adults might like it (I say this reading other reviews), but most kids won't.
