Editorial Reviews:

It's called "the Mozart Effect," the notion that exposing youngsters to the melodies of the maestro can improve verbal ability, spatial intelligence, creativity, and memory. It's a pretty big leap of faith to understand that effect unless you personally see a toddler react to the stimulation. The Baby Einstein folks have a series of tapes (Baby Einstein, Baby Bach) that add visual stimulation to the bouncy recordings (using vibraphone, Rhodes electric piano, and even a glockenspiel). The melodies are heard against colorful imagery of spinning tops, wave machines, soft baby toys, mobiles, and the like. Several parenting groups and magazines have heralded the tapes for children 1 to 36 months, but the Orwellian aspect of introducing babes in arms to the TV screen may cause many to just pick up the CD. --Doug Thomas

Summary: Grape soda for the mind -- do not buy
Comment: 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.

Summary: Typical Baby Einstein
Comment: Nothing new. It's your typical Baby Einstein. With Backyardigans, Dora, Blues Clues, Little Einsteins, and other interactive cartoons, Baby Einstein doesn't really offer anything.
With today's technology and computers for families, I almost feel I could make a video of the same caliber that would offer more images for my children to relate to.

Summary: Good but marred by ads
Comment: The video itself is great, but I find it abhorrent that it begins and ends with ads (for other products by the Baby Einstein company). If some beancounter at Disney felt that they really had to include ads, they could easily have added a menu choice offering information on their other related products. But no, they placed a video announcement for these products right within the play -- as the first thing you see after selecting play, and the last thing after the video itself ends. So you'll get to hear those ads each and every single time you play the DVD.

Summary: Actually soothes my infant into a nap!
Comment: My baby is not a great napper. When she'd come home from "daycare" and needed to unwind I've put this on to try to get some stuff done in the kitchen for dinner just to keep her occupied. Instead of it keeping her occupied it actually puts her in a trance and she's usually asleep by the 12 min marker. For this reason alone I will take it! She just sometimes needs something calm and soothing to get her to come down from her busy day. This also helps because i dont have to feel bad that she's watching too much tv if it actually puts her to sleep. I have to add that it doesn't put her to sleep because its boring, but because its so soothing. I love it. The Lullaby Time DVD hasn't even worked as good as this one.
