Videos?
As I looked through comments it appears that this has been a problem for awhile and not addressed. Videos are not ok! So disappointing.
Can no longer see videos
I loved these apps when I first got them, but I no longer seem to be able to open, or often, even see the videos. I'm not sure if this happened after the latest iOS update? Can this be fixed?
Please update to ISO 8
My son loves this app and used it all the time but when we updated to iOS 8 the videos will no longer play properly. They won't full screen and if they do, they go all black with sound only. The original size of video is like a postage stamp so they are completely unviewable. Also we have to kill the app to exit if we try to enlarge a video. I sent mail to support but did not get a rely. Too bad. I wish they would fix it and support iOS 8. For now this app is disappointing and not useful.

Warning: not age appropriate
My son (5 yrs) has seen and heard things that he shouldn't with this app which is too bad. He really liked it but I can't let him continue playing it. Plus it gets stuck and needs to be reinstalled.
Innopropriate videos
I love this app except for the fact that it has many videos containing explicit language and graphic content. This is a child's app and I wish someone would watch the videos before including them to ensure they are appropriate. Some of the roller coaster related vids in particular contain cursing, and the second roller coaster video is all about accidents which includes graphic footage and dead bodies. Please review and remove
all inappropriate videos.

Update
Please update this app to support iOS7. The videos don't play back in the right size. I would rate this app 4 or 5 stars if this was fixed.
Videos are irresponsible and full of swear words
If you had screened the videos connected to this app this would have been an invaluable learning tool for children.As it stands..you have selected videos that are full of swear words such as f..k! What were you thinking.there is a complete lack of responsibility regarding childrens very impressionable learning.you have marketed this app without any consideration to your target audience.sorry but its appalling.if you actually read your reviews you have the opportunity to correct this..potentially save your reputation but most importantly shield children from a lot of the unexceptable content... Bad language and in doing so may redeem yourselves in the eyes of parents.sorry but some of the video content is inexcusable and definitely unacceptable. Be responsible check them out screen them and get rid of the offensive ones.

If I wanted my two year old to learn the f-bomb
If I wanted my two-year-old cussing from an early age, I would recommend this app. We were watching the sledding video when the sledding-man dropped the f-word. Are you kidding me? When an app is geared towards children, monitor your content, for heaven's sake. I deleted the app before we could stumble across more gems like this.

Videos not working
My son loves this app and we've had it FOREVER. all of a sudden the videos don't work right - they open up into a big window with a tiny video showing. Not sure if theres a setting to fix this, but it's driving me crazy. You can barely see the video anymore! Please fix this!!!!
Videos messed up
I am a speech -language pathologist and my students loved this app for language therapy. However since upgrading to the new operating system the videos do not work properly. They are cut off and don't fill up the box. So now it is virtually unusable by my students. Please make and upgrade.
Awesome pictures!
This app is full of awesome pictures that we use in my sepcial education classroom! They are realistic ways to discuss items!
iOS 7 messed this app up
This app worked great and my 4 year old loves it. Ever since the iOS 7 update it isn't rotating all viewing directions as it did prior to the update. I'd give it 5 stars if this bug were fixed.
Awesome
My loves it!
Teacher
Just previewed this app to use in my Kindergarten. I am really glad I watched one video, about horses,as I saw other suggestions to watch. So happy it was me, not a student that watched the stallion mount the mare in full colour. I will be turning off the video option, but my tech savy K's can easily enable it.
Not worth the potential problems. Please fix this.

Profanity laced video
Initially, I was impressed with this app. It has beautiful graphics and neat videos to provide visuals for the words. Until, we get to the video for the word "sports car" in which the video contains a very loud and clear F bomb. There was a vague disclaimer at the beginning of the video, which I had not noticed with the other word videos, but the disclaimer did nothing to warn me of what was about to come. Needless to say, the app has been deleted and I won't be downloading any apps from this company again.

Foul Language in the very first video he watched!
I couldn't believe it when the very first video he watched (Wake boarding) had foul language in the lyrics. Seriously? Someone thought this was appropriate for kids??? If they get rid of this video (we haven't watched all the others yet), I might change my rating.
Pornography, Foul Language, Adult Subject Matter
PARENTAl WARNING!!!
This app is inappropriate for any age child. It has potential to be a wonderful educational tool but the problem is that the videos are with I believe U-Tube so that one word will link to another thus taking a user into murky water. If an adult is not with the child using the app the child could go from Elephants to elephants mounting one another to dogs humping, to other animals copulating to humans.
Yes the graphics, videos and still photos are of supreme quality but there is no monitoring of the content. Please remove it from showing up in any search for Apps for Toddlers or any child till this problem can be remedied.

Variety
This is an informative app, providing multiple examples of words beginning with the letter sounds. Videos are lively, adding to the variety and interest of the app.
Not geared to young children
Some pictures are outside the experience of children young enough to still be learning sounds. Okay for older ones but what's the point? 'tuk tuk'? I like the use of lower case letters. No need for videos.
Great app!
I love this app! The pictures are crisp and interesting. I specially like the ability to change so many of the settings. It's very versatile for different student's needs.
