The best educational videos are the ones that are fun to watch and interact with, and the best educational videos online for children are the ones that teach children as well as entertain them.

Where better to start than learning the alphabet: A B C...

Lots of Busy Izzy's friends tell her that this is their favourite educational video for children to watch. Using big, big letters, the children dance and sing about their twenty six BFFs, their "best friends forever", which are, of course, the 26 letters of the alphabet!

And, the song which the kids are singing, was written by Busy Izzy author, Roxanne Kiely, and her husband, Stephen Kiely, because they want children to know and enjoy their letters, words, sentences and all the fun things that can happen when children become best friends forever with the alphabet.

 

Here are the lyrics:

My 26 BFF’s

My 26 BFF’s, are the letters of the alphabet

Letter by letter, getting alphabetter. My 26 BFF’s

A-B-C-D-E-F-G

H-I-J-K-L-M-N-O-P

Q-R-S T-U-V

W-X-Y-Z, my 26 BFF’s

The sound of my BFF’s, I found with my BFF’s

Big words, small words absolutely all words 26 BFF’s

I can read with my BFF’s, I can write with my BFF’s

Reading and writing can be so exciting my 26 BFF’s

My 26 BFF’s, are the letters of the alphabet

Letter by letter, getting alphabetter. My 26 BFF’s

A-B-C-D-E-F-G

H-I-J-K-L-M-N-O-P

Q-R-S T-U-V

W-X-Y-Z, my 26 BFF’s

Say names with my BFF’s, Play games with my BFF’s

We can read, yes indeed with 26 BFF’s

Have fun with my BFF’s, with each one of my BFF’s

We’re so clever putting them together 26 BFF’s

My 26 BFF’s, are the letters of the alphabet

Letter by letter, getting alphabetter.

Best friends forever, when we get together.

My 26 BFFs

What do teachers think of Busy Izzy?

We're glad you asked, because we have a video, sent to us by Nazile Bright, 2018 Head Teacher of the Primary School at Amity College, Prestons in New South Wales, Australia.

In this video, Nazile explains exactly why her students love to hear the Busy Izzy stories, and what they look forward to when they're about to be read.

  • "The Busy Izzy and Friends books are full of phonological fun and clever wordplay.
  • We have been studying the Busy Izzy books within our literature unit for the past two years.
  • The books have been so rich in rhythm and rhyme. 
  • The children love exploring the world of Izzy through interactive opportunities such as the read long CDs, songs, the website and the videos. 
  • Not only did the books do well in complimenting our English learning outcomes, but also integrated beautifully with our key learning areas such as the creative arts, PDHPE content, interpersonal relationship skills and communication. 
  • We had so much fun reading the books and can’t wait for the next ‘Busy Izzy’ book to come out.”
  • The healthy activities, the recipes and the sing-a-long songs all serve to increase the children's awareness of vocabulary, safety and social interaction.
