I like the Baby Einstein shows. It's nice to pop in a video if I need to do some chores, and not have to worry about content or commercials (I don't have TV at my house, only DVDs and videos). If you are going to get the videos, though, I'd recommend going with the new collection of 26 DVDs, rather than buying them individually, as you will save a lot just buying the whole set at once. That is why I give this produce a "Good" rating, rather than an "Excellent". It's about cost, folks, not the quality of the product. If you have never seen the shows, you should be able to rent them at your local video store.
The name "Baby Einstein" can trick parents into believing it's okay or even good for their babies to watch it, 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 bought it because I lost my child's favorite Baby Einstein movie - Baby Bach. It has been discontinued so I knew I could find it on EBay. The only problem is that since it's part of a boxset, it's not exactly the same as my original copy. There's no option to change the language, etc... My son's favorite part is the song and in the new copy, the song is different and a man sings it instead of a woman. Other than that, it was a great buy. I paid nine dollars for four movies when one usually costs 15.
