These free child educational, yet entertaining, videos have now been viewed over one million times. Clearly, parents, teachers, and caregivers - not to mention their children - are truly enjoying Cullen’s Abc’s experience and teachings.

In addtion, globally the videos are being use creativity in other ways. The activity idea videos are also being used by older children who can complete the activities on their own. All the videos are being used by children and adults to learn and teach English as a second language, and the most inspiring use is being reported by caregivers of autistic children who are using the videos with these special children.

"It is wonderful to read the daily comments from around the world," states Cullen Wood, the founder of Cullen’s Abc’s. ”And how amazing it is, that the Internet has let me successfully share and imaginatively touch so many lives. I am so fortunate to receive so many positive messages from our viewers."

"I want to thank you for these videos because I'm also teaching English to my little neighbor (she is 6). I'm also learning a lot!!! You are amazing, children love you (I read the comments) I wish you the best!! Thank you!"

"I just wanted to say that your videos really rock," replies YouTube user GraceMarie83. "I am a Nanny and I watch 4 kids: a 2-month old, 2-year old, 7-year old and a 13-year old. Well, they all love your music videos; the 2-year old sings right along with you every time. Also, the older kids love the crafts. Thank so much for all your videos."

The video categories include art and craft ideas, lesson tunes, child education shows, rhymes, songs, activity ideas, new words, interactive book readings, as well as book reviews with tips for grown ups. All videos and activity ideas stimulate young children's development at home and in the classroom. In addition, all the activities are designed to be completed inexpensively with common items from around the house.

It is highly recommended that adults interact with young children while they watch the videos.
