PreSchool-Using the now-familiar pattern of repetition and footage of real children against a background of classical music, these two videos showcase very basic math concepts for babies ages six months to three years. Numeracy introduces numbers one to five by counting off puppets, then showing multiple segments for each number of real children of various ages counting various objects (dolls, chairs, cups, etc.), activities (rope-skips, jumps, claps, etc) and sounds (rings, gongs, horns, etc). In many of the segments, the items are rearranged or shown at different angles to demonstrate that quantity does not change. Question segments ("How many drums do you see?") allow viewers to interact with the video. Sequencing uses many of the same ideas, relying primarily on counting segments. However, it also briefly touches upon other types of sequencing, such as size. Four segments demonstrate narrative sequencing by showing, for instance, the steps in making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. In both videos, the youngsters are lively and engaging, but the repetitive format may bore children at the older end of the target age range. In a few instances, the choices of counting objects may confuse youngsters; for instance, a young gymnast demonstrates "2 aerials," which will be far beyond the comprehension of little ones. Libraries facing a demand for "baby brain development" videos will want to add these to their collections.
