The name "Baby Einstein" can lull you into thinking it's okay or even good for babies to watch t.v., but the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no television AT ALL to children under 2 because so many studies have proven its harmful effects on children. Studies have shown that: - for every hour of television a baby watches a day, their chances of acquiring an attention deficit disorder increases by 10%. - among babies ages 8 months to 16 months, every hour spent daily watching programs such as 'Brainy Baby' or 'Baby Einstein' translated into six to eight fewer words in their vocabularies as compared with other children their age." - brain wave activity in babies is slower when watching television than when sleeping. "Signing Time" (Two Little Hands Productions) DVDs is an excellent option for OCCASIONAL video viewing because communicating in sign language with your child is proven to: - reduce frustration and tantrums - accelerate language development - promote parent-child bonding Last thing for new moms - carrying newborn babies (in arms or next to body) an extra 3 hours a day resulted in 40% less crying. So carrying baby in a carrier or sling can help calm fussy babies!Read full review
I really like the Baby Einstein series, and my daughter will sit and watch them with her full attention. I was interested in broadening our collection, so I decided to purchase Baby Monet - Discovering the Seasons. I really liked the colourful presentations, the classical background music, and the use of art in the show. Although my daughter is a little old for the show (they recommend 6 months +, and she's 18 months), she did enjoy the parts with puppets! I highly recommend the Baby Einstein series for anyone who is hoping to keep their baby/toddler occupied for more than 2 minutes! This is a great episode to put on while the little one is in their exersaucer, or just as some background that is educational.
Both my 2 year old and my infant son absolutely LOVE this DVD. It's bright and beautiful colors guide children through the changes of the seasons set to classical music. My son watched this video literally from the time we brought him home from the hospital, turning his head to see it while my daughter watched it. When he would fuss, the music soothed him. Now that he is 8 months old, he enjoys sitting in his exersaucer and watching the DVD. The Baby Einstein collection is excellent, and I would recommend this DVD to anyone I know who has young children.
Loved this DVD, It had many of the puppets which are what attrats my 1 yr old to the Baby Einstein videos. I would consider it one of the top Baby Einstein videos, many of them, I'm not fond of now since Disney took over, but this one is still good. Seems when Disney took over the videos stopped showing the puppets & toys near as much & it is just pure film of kids playing or nature. Not saying that's a bad thing for your child, but what attracts most babies to the videos is the puppets & toys, so why take the good part away?!
I decided to buy this dvd because my 2 year old son has been watching and enjoying Baby Einstein dvds since he was about 6 months old. He continues to request Baby Einstein even though he is getting older. He also loves a Monet book that he has. He likes this dvd and is learning about the seasons. I wish that it had more images of the artwork of Monet. Other than that, it is very nice.
