What Parents Need to Know
About Braincandy 5 Senses DVD Series
Parents need to know that the five-DVD Braincandy series (including See My World, Hear My World, Touch My World, Taste My World, Smell My World) reinforces "organic" learning, integrating movement, music, bright colors, and live action scenes of active preschoolers as they learn about the five senses. Gentle and cheerful, the Braincandy DVDs emphasize the learning process rather than the end results, and feature enough variety to appeal to all kinds of learners. Although the DVD packaging suggests that the series is appropriate for age 6 months and up, parents should know that both Common Sense Media and the American Academy of Pediatrics advise against allowing children younger than 2 years old watch TV and other screen media.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about their senses by trying non-traditional ways of approaching the subject. Instead of just reading a book about colors, how about making up a dance that shows how a color makes you feel? Or cooking foods of different colors?
