This video is excellent. The vocabulary is so great and then the generalizing really helps. It is a great resource for all children.
My kids love this video. The vocabulary has been a great help. Excellent!!
This is a great program in teaching children. I especially advocate for this program because research shows that children learn through play and practice, and because I have personally seen it work. It is their natural route to developmental milestones. Using video to facilitate learning is a wonderful tool. With the use of the videos, children have the capability to be an active participate in mastering the communication and social skills that has been of major concern. Beginning with Imitation, skills are developed. Watch Me Learn touches on all bases of a child's life, from brushing their teeth to playing Duck, Duck Goose. All children, that develop typically and atypically, love to play, how better to learn than by watching them. This particular program allows our children to experience being on the same playing field as their peers that developing typically , as they should be. I have personally used these videos for years, in Early Intervention, in Class and as a Coverage Teacher. There isn't a day that goes by that someone doesn't tell me how one of their students have generalized what they have learned with me and Watch Me Learn in other areas of the day. .....they also have an app that you can download to use with corresponding visual cues. What else can I say. Play with "Watch Me Learn" and watch them learn!
Thank you Mary Bet. You offer an awesome program. My son is verbal but not a verbal communicator at times and processes deeply. I think this visual is something I wish we had when he was very little. Though he older now he can still benefit, but what a goldmine for early interventionists!
