i've also been info gathering at the educaiton expo ar
my personal feelings -
out of disney, noddy and english times, i like noody least, and preferring english times to disney, as disney looks a bit dated and is less focused on reading.
i was gonna get my hubby to get 'your baby can read' when he goes on business trip in the US, but after having a look at the books & DVDs at the expo, i was quite disappointed. :( it seems quite unstructured... might work for native english speaking kids but not for kids with another mother language....

I had the mickey set for my elder daughter. It worked well with her when she was below 3, but she lost her interest in watching the DVDs after 3. She is 6 now.

Hi TszChingMaMa I had same experience as you. My elder son liked to listen and watch the Disney before going to K1, but he lost interest after that. He is 6 now and English standard is not as good as my expectation.
My younger girl is 4 months, I play the CD and DVD. She seems like to listen and watch. From my previous experience, we need to keep on creating a English speaking environment to them. Otherwise, it will waste the effort and money we paid.
