Hi everyone! What are the contents of the TweedleWink DVDs like? Do they explain or give information on each image shown in the DVD?
Also, Is there an available coupon code for this? Thank you so much.

Hi maryofus, brillkids has run out of coupons and are waiting for a restock. We dont know how long it will take, a few of us are waiting for the coupons so I sent an email off to right brain kids to see if they will give us a code to use right now.  Will let you know if I get one
As to the content there is a demo to watch of one of their videos on utube. Type in tweedlewink, I can't give you the link from the iPad it won't load the video  .
But since others will answer you who have the DVDs already, I would like to add a question!    I am interested to know how much more advanced the last few DVDs are compared to the number 2 demo on utube. I know it's recommended to watch them in order..so I was wondering how fast/advanced does the speed reading get? Does the content become more detailed or more like broader in scope? gosh I hope that makes sence. I will buy them anyway but curiosity got me

Alright, I can't afford to buy the whole dvd series at a time, so I am wondering somethings.  1) If there are nine lessons, do you show the lesson only once or is it shown once a day for a week or month...how many times should it be shown?   I am thinking if I can buy one dvd a month, I could be offering my children an awesome right brain education.   I can't seem to find a spot on their page that just puts it out there how their program should be used.  Also what are the essentials?

Thanks!

The instructions come with the DVD.It's a guide only.  It's  one lesson three times ( once a day or as your child guides you) then on to the next lesson. so you will need more than one DVD a month. It's supposed to be shown while your child is relaxed or sleepy. and they can be repeated from the beginning once you finish.
It is quite expensive ( actually I would say very)  I can't afford to buy them individually as the postage would kill me. I do think they are worth what they charge though I still wish they were cheaper

Cokers4life-
I have a copy of the 'overview course', but just can't seem to follow it...but my daughter loves it, and I have been showing one lesson per day, each lesson 3 times, during our nighttime routine...we do ours in bed on a portable DVD player. Probably not ideal as far as size wise, but I think the snuggling and doing it right before bed when she is the most mellow and receptive makes up for it!
One thing! Depending on where you are, shipping for these is beastly! It might be better to wait, save up some money (maybe wait for the BrillKids coupon!?).  If you are desperate to get started, get the first 2 and this will keep you quite busy until a coupon arrives!
I think it is well worth the cost..the amount of material on a single lesson is phenomenal...and you can subsidize each lesson with added activities for reinforcement!

Well I got a reply those coupons arein the hands of brillkids now so any day now they should be back up for us to use

hello, what is the difference between little reader and Tweedlewink dvds? thank you!

[Mandabplus3]

Little reader teaches words, LOTS of words, it's aim is to teach kids how to read. LR has pictures too.  Tweedlewink wink is a right brained maximum imput program. It has some words, some phonics, some science, some math, some culture....a bit of everything. LR is for the computer. Tweedlewink wink is DVDs. They are both very different.

Mandala, thanks for the explanation. i am really interested in LR, but is not compatible with my mac computer
