 Wow! What a great resource for parents! March 11, 2008

What an excellent way to bridge music and soical skills with a fun and dynamic resource. Just pop it in and you have an hour of Music Therapy and Speech Therapy combined. What could be easier? I loan it to clients and all the kids are "hooked" within the first few viewings. It's great because it is something kids can watch on TV while you have to cook dinner, and you don't have to feel guilty about the kids watching a video, because they are learning.
I see a little girl with ASD who is 6 years old, and she requests the CD that accompanies the DVD each Speech Therapy session as a reward! She sings the feelings song and acts out all the feelings, and has generalized that skill with lot's of people.
A wonderful gift for all kids and families with Autsim.
Thanks Kibbles!

This was developed specifically for children on the autism spectrum by parents and experts in Speech and Music Therapy. It starts off with a nice jingle.
The tunes are really catchy, the video is lively with many musical instruments being played by professionals. The setting is a club house where there is a schedule board with a large picture card indicating what is taking place and they have a circle time. Kibble is the stuffed dog that talks and has his own section after each lesson on the DVD. This is known as Kibbles world.
The forty minutes goes by quickly. There are professional musicians playing a variety of instruments like the violin, flute, cello and drums. The best segment is an outdoor one where they sing about being calm, all dressed in white admiring colorful flowers in a field. Very serene like and uplifting with the music playing.
There are four kids portrayed in the movie representing all age groups and gender. They have a schedule board they follow which utilizes big picture cards. There are colored rugs, snack time and circle time.
It is perfectly suited for the recommended target age group of 3-7. The skills taught are reinforced with kibbles world, which is interactive having kids choose the corresponding picture or phrase that has to do with the lesson just taught.
A fun engaging and motivating DVD plus the CD is great for listening at the computer or in the car. Both are hits with my nonverbal son on the autism spectrum.
Great video! January 23, 2009

My 4 year old son LOVES this video! We had tried the Teach to Talk video series by Jenny McCarthy and my son never really took to them. But, he is loving this one. He wants to watch it all the time and we sing along to the cd that is included when we're driving in the car.
The best thing is he is starting to apply their message of what to do when you get frustrated. We've tried for a year to get him to take deep breaths and count to 10, but to no avail. Now, after 3-4 viewings, he is starting to do it on his own. Major breakthrough!
If your child learns from video modeling, as mine does, this is a great purchase.

I purchased this video for my 4 year old daughter with ASD. She is trying desperately to understand the different emotions and she absolutely loves this DVD. The creators do a good job of covering the emotions - happy, sad, proud, angry and frustrated - from how to identify the facial expressions to how to deal with feelings of angry and frustrated.
Overall, the Kibble characters are very likeable, the music is catchy, and the use of labels is well done. In the bonus features section of the DVD, there is a karoke section so that you can learn the words to the songs. A CD is also enclosed so that you can take the music on the road.
I also purchased the Spectrum Connections DVD on emotions. While both DVDs have their charms, my daugher (and I) prefer to watch the Kibble video. I am hoping that Noteabilities will create new volumes in the near future.
We love Kibbles! October 21, 2009

My 7 year old son has benefitted so much from this DVD. He is on the high functioning end of the autism spectrum/Aspergers Syndrome (very verbal, academically advanced, but had no friends and difficulty with appropriate social interaction). He learned from the DVD how to be more aware of his own emotions, such as "I feel mad when someone takes my toy. I feel frustrated when I can't open my snack at school." With that seemingly simple step, he has made a leap in socialization skills. He recently initiated a friendship at school, invited the new friend for a playdate, and both had fun at the playdate. I think kids of different ages take different things from the DVD.
The Calm Down music video and song alone are worth the price of the DVD. Both of my sons needed that, including my 5 year old who has no developmental issues, but is still working on controlling his temper. They both learned from the DVD that they SHOULD try to calm down when they are mad, sad or scared, and HOW to calm down. I've tried teaching them to take deep breaths before, but they weren't interested.
We love this DVD and the included CD. Please make more!
