Nick Jr. released Team Umizoomi: Umigames on DVD on June 5.
“Team Umizoomi features a tiny team of superheroes, Milli, Geo and Bot, who use their mighty math powers to help little kids solve big problems. The series combines action-adventure missions with an interactive math curriculum designed to help kids develop self-confidence in their math abilities and appreciate the many ways in which math shapes their world. The Umi Team is not complete without their Umi Friends (home viewers), who help the team along the way while practicing various math skills. Set to a soundtrack of preschool-friendly pop songs, the series is designed to build upon preschoolers’ conceptual understanding of math as they are exposed to core mathematical concepts like numbers, counting, computations, measurement, patterns and shapes.”
My girls enjoy watching Team Umizoomi. For my youngest, she enjoys the music and when the characters interact with the viewing audience by asking questions. Four my oldest, she enjoys counting and figuring out patterns so she enjoys the team’s problem solving sections.
