Each letter had a creative little process to go along with it, from the A’s screaming in fright to the Z’s taking a nap. Tad flew with the F’s, jumped with the J’s, and kicked with the K’s. My four-year-old was entranced by the story and enjoyed singing along with Tad and the Professor. With the wacky Professor, Tad works his way through every letter in the alphabet, learning what each sound they make as they train to be part of a talking alphabet book. When his brother and sister get wrapped up in the preparations, Tad wanders off into the factory and eventually bumps into Professor Quigley. He’s enthusiastic, but tends to get in the way when he tries to help the family with the big presentation they’re giving at the Letter Factory. Leap and Lily are the well-known older siblings in LeapFrog products and Tad is just a little frog who doesn’t know his letters yet. The 35 minute feature not only teaches the letters and what sounds they make, but reinforces that information regularly throughout the program to allow the child to build on that knowledge.

One of the first of the re-released DVDs is LeapFrog Letter Factory, which walks viewers through the alphabet with a colorful, engaging, musical tour.
#LEAPFROG LETTER FACTORY ABC SERIES#
So when this series of DVDs from LeapFrog and Lionsgate was announced, I knew we’d have to check it out. They’ve been producing a variety of read-along-style and game products (such as their LeapPad and Leapster products) for a number of years and we’ve always been quite satisfied. One of the best sources of educational tools is LeapFrog. As the parent of a child getting ready for kindergarten, I am always on the lookout for new educational materials.
