Since I’m updating you, I wanted to include some videos of our newer DVDs, too! We recently animated Sing & Spell Volumes 1, 2, and 4!!
Our Classroom Management DVD has been out for a couple years, but it’s a GREAT one! It really helps teach and reinforce classroom and playground rules.
Letters & Sounds is one of my favorites! I just LOVE the kids’ artwork!!!
Our Number Jumble DVD is one of our newer DVDs as well!! It covers number recognition, number writing, counting skills, and how to read the number words!
