Grape soda for the mind
Your child would love watching this video, but she'd also love eating cotton candy and drinking grape soda. Many pediatric and psychological studies have shown that young children know FEWER words for every hour they spend watching videos like this one. Why? Because they aren't spending time with YOU, practicing their language and social skills. There's also evidence that young children who watch TV have a greater risk of developing ADHD. Last, toddlers who grow up in homes with the TV always on in the background literally seem to have more trouble hearing themselves think. This hurts their developing linguistic abilities and consequently their abilities to engage silent reasoning.
Please protect your child -- don't let her watch any TV during her early, crucial, developmental years. We only watch TV when our little girl is asleep.

Wonderful and age appropriate
My little one absolutely loves this DVD and even asks for it by "growling" like the tiger on the front! It may surprise you that they only teach numbers up to 5, but as a former preschool teacher I believe it is very age appropriate. The DVD is not teaching them to just -count- to five, they are teaching the children how to recognize numbers up to five as well as recognize number sets (ie-when we see 4 things we don't have to count, we automatically know there are four things). I think it is wonderful, and had they gone on to teach 6-10 it not only would have been too long, but would have been overwhelming. I think it was very well made as does my 1 1/2 year old!

Baby Einstein Rocks
I had heard good things about the Baby Einstein books and chose to give a couple of them for a 1st birthday present. Among all the toys the child received, these books stood out and everyone at the party oooohed and aaaahed. I was so happy when I got a "thumbs up" from the mother of the birthday boy. The experience of ordering on line from Amazon is the best. I give them a "thumbs up".

My Baby Counts to 5
My daughter who is now 15 months old started watching "Numbers Nursey" at 12 months old. By the time she was 13 months old, she was counting from 1 to 5 and recognizing the numbers. This DVD is her absolute favorite and she can hardly contain her laughter and excitement when the little Baby Einstein Caterpillar makes its first appearance.

You don't need videos...
Although BE videos are a wonderful concept, they aren't a staple needed in teaching your child! We have several BE videos at home for my 2 year old Daughter and I keep it running on her TV in her room when she is in there playing. She is not a TV watcher and will only focus her attention on it when something catches her eye. I have been doing this since she was about 2 months old. My Daughter could count to 11 by time she was 20 months old, knows at least 5 primary colors, and can recite the entire alphabet since she was about 18 months. She also has a vocabulary much larger than that of some Pre-Schoolers and is very articulate. However, I do not think that BE videos had much of anything to do with this. What does matter and will help your child in learning is YOU and/or a Caregiver taking time out to TEACH your child the old-fashioned way!

Great "classic" BE format
While I hate to admit it, my 8 month old is hooked on Baby Einstein. His favorites are Baby McDonald, Numbers Nursery, Baby VanGogh and Baby Shakespeare--i.e., all the classical puppet format types. Also really loves Babies First Moves, though that is more of the real-kid-doing-fun-stuff format. I've researched the BE series thoroughly, and highly recommend these. While I am not crazy enough to think the videos will make my little one smarter, I do like that I know what he's seeing, I get a few minutes to shower, cook, etc, and most importantly, he loves it!

AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS RECOMMENDS NO TV FOR CHILDREN UNDER 2!
The name "Baby Einstein" wants to make parents think it's okay for babies to watch this program, but look at these facts:
- In a study among babies ages 8-16 months, every hour spent watching programs daily such as 'BABY EINSTEIN' or 'BRAINY BABY' translated into 6-8 fewer words in their vocabularies as compared with other children their age
- the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no television at all to children under two years of age.
- for every hour of television a baby watches daily, their chances of acquiring an attention deficit disorder increases by 10%
- brain wave activity is slower when watching television than when sleeping in babies.
In summary, three hours every day of watching programs like this day can result in 30% greater chance of ADD and 18-24 fewer vocabulary words!!
"Signing Time" (Two Little Hands Productions) DVDs is an alternative option for OCCASIONAL video viewing because at least communicating in sign language 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!

Best of Baby Einstein
Of all the Baby Einstein movies we have, this one keeps both my baby and my toddler engaged. They love the puppets, and I love that the numbers are spoken aloud. My toddler will repeat the numbers as they are spoken. This is an improvement some of the earlier movies that had no words spoken aloud in them. Also on our favorites list - Baby McDonald & Baby Noah, and my toddler loves Neighborhood Animals and My First Signs.

Numbers Nursery
For numbers 1-5, this is a nice dvd! My son really enjoys this one! It's clear, it's fun & it's cute! Another one of his Baby Einstein dvd's I don't mind sitting & watching with him! :) It also keeps his attention the whole time!
