Disney's Learning Adventures - Winnie the Pooh - ABC's
It's the first day of autumn in the Hundred Acre Woods, the perfect time for "munching on honey" and learning the alphabet in this perfectly paced instructional program. Christopher Robin provides the gentle tutorials by reading from his very own ABC book as Pooh sits by his side. But alas, when Pooh borrows the book to show Piglet, a great wind carries the pages away. With an earnest desire to make amends, Pooh and his friends decide to rewrite the book themselves. While Owl provides the instruction, they start at the beginning, learning to write their names by shaping each letter and learning its sound. A song reinforces the lesson and a delightful surprise at the program's end allows the gang to put their rhyming knowledge to work. While this is not a comprehensive spelling course, viewers will learn that letters have shapes and sounds, understand what makes a word rhyme, and put into practice early letter recognition. A wonderful companion program toWinnie the Pooh 123's. (Ages 2 to 6)--Lynn Gibson
