Fav. Letter segments

Hey, I'd like to talk to you about the letter t. It looks like a hook, with a line across the top. It's a very usefuil letter. Like when you're hungry, there's tea, toast, taffy, tomatoes, and turkey. If you want to talk about animals, there's tadpoles, tigers, toads, and turtles. Lots of people have jobs that start with t...like ther's teachers, traffic cops, truck drivers, tailers, typists, and taxi drivers. Why right on your own body, there's teeth, a tounge, toes. But best of all, is how much fun you can have with t. You can tap dance, play tag, play with toys, travel on a train..tickle, talk, or you can toodle a tune on a tuba. A teriffic letter, the letter t. I like this one better than some of the newer segments, because it teaches you a lot more. There are 25 things that start with t, and if I remember correctly, the FILM only took a little over a minute. Now in a minute, the kids are lucky they learn 3 or 4 things. I hope that the kids today are ok learners (my personal opinion). :embarrassed:

WOW!! I'm impressed, you quoted every word of that skit to a 'T', no pun intended! :big_grin:

I think the kids, like myself then, picked up quite a bit. I always liked that little flick really.

Thanks. Too bad it's been a decade or so since I saw it last. Can't believe I actually remembered it. :smile:

It wasn't Smokey who scared me. It was the music and the way the U grabbed him that scared me. Plus I was only three when I first saw the video, so you can see why I've been traumatised by it since.

The Lower Case N

My favorite was the lower case N

Anyone have lyrics to all these and the number cartoons (Ladybug picnic) etc?

Or are they available somewhere on DVD?
