More YBCR Videos?

[shaden]

Hi Everyone,

My 16 month old son has mastered ALL the words from YBCR and he is just watching them over and over again...I think he may be getting bored with them now since he knows all the words.   I wish Dr. Ttzier(sp) would make some more videos with different words!  Has anyone made videos of thier own?? How do you go about doing that?  Im thinking it will be a lot of work to make a video like YBCR...any thoughts?

Why not use Little Reader for more words?

I do show my son words using ppt.  My Little reader expired and I have yet to purchase it but I will be very soon hopefully!! I was looking for more of a video type of thing cuz my son loves watching the little kids in the YBCR videos! I think he likes the "movie" aspect of it...I noticed that he picked up more words using YBCR videos than with showing words on the computer....

Hi Shaden!

I just thought I'd add- I really like the "Baby Signing Time" and "Signing Time" DVDs because they both instruct in ASL and show the words on the screen in context. Example: "Garden", they will show the word, the ASL sign (numerous times) and several videos of gardens, children in gardens, gardening, etc. I really like Signing Time. There is not as much overt repetition of the words as YBCR, but the songs are very catchy and the children begin recognizing the words because they learn the songs and start to make the association. I am not a fan of showing too much TV to kids, but I wholeheartedly love our Signing Time "time" each morning, since we all participate- signing, singing, and reading.

Along these lines, a sing-along DVD may also be a good pick, if the text doesn't go too fast. I know my kids are pretty hooked on Disney tunes, and once they know the songs, they can follow the text on screen and once again, make the associations with the words on-screen and the lyrics. I don't presently have any, but I have used these in the past, also because they are great for phonemic awareness (rhyming patterns, etc)

Hope that helps!

I agree, it would be great to have more DVDs. Maybe we should all email them, although I'm not sure if I could afford more.

I hope they come out with some more good ones!

I know when I was younger Disney Made sing along movies with the words at the bottom, like karaoke. Maybe you could find something like that? My son is only on the starter video of YBCR so we still have a while before he finishes.

I wish they would too. My son just started volume two. I cant wait to see if it works. In the mean time I'm gonna try twiddlewink.

I just emailed YBCR from their website and asked if they were planing on making more sets of the sliding word cards with the pictures.

My baby loves the sliding word cards with the pics but unfortunately they only include about 25 cards with the program and it falls way short of a comprehensive flash card reading program. 

I like YBCR but I just have a hard time believing that if a child learns the 60 (approx) words featured in the program that they will learn to read.

I requested that they make sliding word cards for the 1000 most commonly used words in the English language.    They could even break them up into sets of different categories.

Anyway, I think you are right. Additional dvds and additional sliding word cards that one could buy off their website would be a big hit with parents who are serious about teaching their babies to read.
