Multiplication Rap DVD by Rock 'N Learn

This is by far the best multiplication dvd! It gets the kids up dancing/singing and learning at the same time (great for visual/action learners)! The first round of each segment gives the answer right away, the second round of each segment hesitates for the answer so the child can yell it out immediately and then wait for the confirmation (wish there was a little longer hesitation but it's pretty good). You can select the segment you want by going to the menu - right now my grandson is learning his 2's and this is really helping! We call the hamster the "Rap Rat" for fun!

This was the only DVD I could find that incorporates visual, audio and some fun into learning multiplication at a decent price. My son struggles with math and I thought if we could cover all the ways to learn at once maybe he would do better. The graphics definitely leave much to be desired but honestly all of my kids from my 9 yeaar old to the 4 and 2 year olds like the movie. In the maain menu it also has a skip counting part as well which was a big bonus. I dont know how effective it is yet as we just bought it, but they are very excited and love to dance and sing the songs with the weird rat guy.

This CD was purchased to help my child learn her multiplication facts easier. She loves the songs and the kicky rhythm.She is learning so much from this CD.

I thought it had a lot of info thats easy to understand however my kid doesn't like the music and thinks it's boring.But it's a nice DVD for the money I think.

I had this DVD years ago when my daughter was learning multiplication and she was one of the fastest kids in her class to master all of her multiplication after watching this program. NOw I purchased it for my 6 year old who is in advanced math and he is learning at a rapid speed as well! This has been one of my greatest teaching tools for helping to give my kids a solid foundation for math success.

as a user of Leapfrog DVD's, phonics, ABCs, and Math.. I feel like this video even though is not leap frog falls a bit short. The music and rapping of the times tables is okay at best I feel. I think my kids (7 and 5) are getting a little out of it... but the songs and music is pretty much the same throughout... and the video well,... my kids seem to get bored with it. but I will continue to put it on for the kids in the car until I find something else? by the way I also use times table charts and have them write the multiplication facts 4x's each, at least 1 sheet a day.

My daughter age 8 was struggling in math and while this DVD did not make her a shining star over night, it certainly helps her confidence and it shows. I am in love with this concept and I am seeing results daily. Before this DVD my daughter did not remember her 3X's tables now not only does she know her 3x's tables but she also knows her 4, 5 & 6. T give you an idea how long it took her to learn her tables she received this DVD for Christmas (stocking stuffer), today is January 23 and she has more to learn but I am confident she will. I love this DVD. Great buy worth every penny!

Its a very long video of cartoon characters singing- not rhyming- the multiplication tables while the numbers flash on the screen. I could sing this myself but it doesnt make you remember them any easier. For example they sing to music, 3x3=9, 3x4=12, 3x5=15 and so on thru all the number sets. This is the same thing we do on the flash cards, over and over but the tough ones to remember are still the tough ones to remember. There's no catchy songs to help. If you dont know the answer to 7x6 singing it is not going to make you remember. Just like when you forget the words to a song. Now I did order at the same time a book called Times Tables the Fun Way by Judy Liataud and Dave Rodriguez. THAT I would recommend for those kids who just get stuck on trying to remember the more difficult ones. This book has a short story about a single fact for example 4x4=16 If you want to drive a 4x4 you have to be 16 to drive. Some of the stories are a little corny and a stretch but at least its a better way to remember. I am going to make my 8yr old listen to the video every day for his "homework" to see if it helps, but so far he hates it. I dont recommend this product unles you can get it for $1

Sorry, my son hated it so it was not helpful as a learning tool. I must confess I found it annoying too.
