Bruce Kluger, Parenting Magazine"Kidvid soars into the realm of dazzling computer animated graphics in 'Galloping Minds,' a smart and snazzy series devoted to captivating little viewers -- even as it teaches them a thing or two.
'Alphabets' (volume one) takes children on a delightful tour of their ABCs via live-action footage of zoo animals, old fashioned-cartooning, and clever computerized renditions of all 26 letters.
And 'Shapes and Colors' (volume two) brings the beauty of the rainbow to the small screen, as simple crayon renderings blossom into eye-popping pictures that will keep wee ones riveted.
Bouncy electronic music and gentle narration add just the right touch to this marvelous new addition to the universe of children's home entertainment."Caroline Howard, 'Working Mother' Magazine saysBaby Learns Numbers and Animals with Mr. Twiddles "A clever and eye-pleasing treat, with fun puppets, sparkling animation and a delightful soundtrack of kids' ditties and classical music." --Bruce Kluger
"Little minds will light up with the two newest entries into the infant DVD/video market."Alphabets" and "Shapes and Colors" by Galloping Minds."
All our DVDs/videos have been awarded the Dove Foundation Approval Seal for good family entertainment.
Midwest Book Review, A rewarding and educational treasure,
Galloping Minds Alphabets is a 40-minute full color DVD intended for preschool through kindergarten children. Featuring a colorful alphabet video that blends letters with still images - such as the letter "R" with a photograph of a rhino - and light classical music in the background, Galloping Minds Alphabets is a rewarding and educational treasure to share with one's children and show them just how much fun learning can be. Also very highly recommended is the companion DVD Galloping Minds Shapes And Colors ($14.95, 30 minute, Color) which is specifically designed to stimulate the minds of babies and children up to 6 years with ppbeat music and colorful images of two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes creating an enchanting experience of color, sound, and basic building-block educational fun.
December 2, 2007 Preschool Baby Learns About Computers: Tubby in Computer World is a DVD presented by Galloping Minds for tots 2 to 6 years old. A digitally animated teddy bear hosts this extremely basic tutorial to the fun of pointing-and-clicking on the PC, including age-appropriate introductions to the mouse, keyboard, and monitor as well as internet visits to faraway places such as the Statue of Liberty and an Egyptian tomb. A wonderful DVD to help familiarize and acclimate young people to technology in a modern world where an individual's career and financial success are increasingly dependent on being computer savvy. 30 minutes, color.

This movie is really fun and upbeat and I am sure that any child whether he or she already knows about animals and numbers will love this movie. - Dove FoundationFrom All Movie Guide
Alphabets
The first installment in the Galloping Minds series, this video uses unique animation techniques, movement, and color in order to stimulate the brains of babies and toddlers. While appropriate for infants, the program allows for older toddlers to enhance their word/object association and spelling abilities. Over 120 separate objects are displayed and spelled out in both upper and lowercase letters. This series is designed to increase the cognitive, creative, and spatial reasoning abilities of young children.

Shapes and Colors
The second installment in the Galloping Minds series, this production uses creative animation techniques and vivid imagery in order to showcase a variety of different shapes. Appropriate for infants and young toddlers, the colors are designed to stimulate a child's visual senses as well as introduce them to both the second and third dimension. Preceded by Galloping Minds, Vol. 1: Alphabets , this DVD is encourages cognitive ability, creativity, spatial perception, and mathematical thinking early in life.

Alphabet and Phonics video/DVD, Shapes and Colors, Numbers and AnimalsThis set of learning DVD's are some of the best I have seen. My one year old simply loves them! As parents we get to watch them over and over... as I watch them with my son, I see how he looks at me and learns from the content and then try's to share with us both his enthusiasm and what he is learning. Out in the world he is identifying things that he has learned and is a lot more interactive in trying to convey his thoughts. Great product!S. M. Santos (Los Gatos California)
This DVD is a great instructional and educational tool. The letters of the alphabet are associated with many objects which help the younger kids to identify the letters. The older kids learn the sounds of the letters. This sets the stage for blending the sounds, phonics. They also learn the words and spelling of the words. My granddaughter dances to the music as she repeats the words, letters and sounds. She gets very excited when she sees the live animals.

Excellent DVD for children
I enjoyed the newest Alphabet DVD for children and so does my 2-year old son. He points at all the different items for each letter. I tried to teach him these things all along and now that I am working, I can be confident that he will continue to get taught and my husband just needs to play the DVD.
Linda Doodnauth, a working mother of 2 year old son,
The videos are bright, well documented and entertaining. My kids love them, especially 'Shapes and Colors'. I would recommend these videos as a great learning tool.
The Pompeiis from Colorado Springs, Colorado
My original intentions were for the dvd's to help my 3 year old daughter with her abc's and her shapes, but her attention span is short when it comes to one on one teaching. She does really well in her preschool environment. But...my 14 month old son really enjoyed them! I personally thought that the dvd's were very helpful, and I will continue to introduce them to my 3 year old.
Mrs. Lenoare Mitchell-Mays, CaliforniaOur three year old couldn't stop laughing and smiling during your Alphabets tape. The motion and special effects were particularly entertaining. We liked the opportunity to build vocabularly and exposure to spelling, set to music. The opportunity to learn 120 words while being entertained for 40 minutes should not be missed by visual learners, including those on the PDD/AST/autism spectrum.
Mom from Long Island.I really appreciated the words being shown with the pictures, as my 2 1/2 year old is starting to read words and it helps reinforce this. And the tape is nice and long, about 45 minutes, so it gives you a nice break!
Amy Zimmerman, Mom from Crownsville, MDI love the Galloping Minds 'Alphabets' DVD. I put the DVD in as soon as I recieved it in the mail, which was really fast shipping I might add. My son was glued to the tv and was even saying some of the words along with them. My son is 3 1/2 years old incase you were wondering. The point is I highly recommend buying the educational vhs's or dvd's from Galloping Minds, and I will be looking for more in the future as well. I give 5 stars rating.Helena Hill, Mom from Easton, PA
