Time - Highly Recommended! - Our toddler
had a huge
vocabulary months before his second birthday, and he asks for these
videos by name (in sign language, of course) several times a day (and
no, we don't get anything for selling them to you). Fantastic for
babies and toddlers. 1/18 update - now with lots of resources, including online dictionary and lots more.
