just watch it!
... View MoreA lot of fun.

... View MoreThe thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
... View MoreI 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.
... View MoreI 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.
... View Morethey make kids shows.why are ducks always the loud-mouthed firecracker who can never do anything right? Disney and warner brothers cartoons. the stereotypes are consistent in this show. in this case, DUCK also has a southern twang.it accomplishes its intention to teach phonics and spelling conventions, but it is of note that requiring animation to hold someone's attention to a story means it discourages reading. fortunately, the jokes are not funny, there is almost no story, and the characters are tedious, so there will be no emotional attachment.the animations are relatively well-done, but it seems that the show was conceived of by graphic designers segueing into character design. creative typography is a very appealing trick for graphic designers. on this show, since the character design is not especially inspired/ iconic, i can assume that this is a portfolio piece.overall, while i can appreciate having children learn spelling with ease, i don't know if they should be exposed to mind numbing story lines and DUCK.
... View MoreI turn Word World on for my three year old son every morning and he loves watching his "friends" Frog, Pig, Duck, Ant, Sheep, Dog, Bear and the rest of the gang make words from letters and make a new word, for example: P-I-E is Pie or B-A-L-L is Ball . He loves the characters for they are fun, colorful and relay on one another for help and teaches about friendship. They teach us not to judge a person by the way they look or for what there name is but to judge them for who they are on the inside. It shows that one word can be made into a different word with the same letters like T-O-P top can be P-O-T pot, or words rhyme with other words like T-I-E tie rhymes with P-I-E pie. At the end of the show they have a catchy song as they build the last word and then after the word is finished. This show has helped him to pick up reading and spelling and he doesn't care cause it such a fun show to watch with him. Its the perfect for children and parents to sit down together and interact with by saying the letters, or allow the child to name the letters they see, and words they spell on the show. If your looking to start your child in spelling and reading this is one you should allow them watch.
