Description:

A delightful addition to the bounty of programs designed to stimulate a baby's brain development, First Words is an animated "board book" that introduces toddlers to familiar words by way of simple, recognizable images. The show differs from other So Smart! programs in that the customary classical music soundtrack is replaced with equally lovely original piano, guitar, and flute compositions. The video's emphasis is not the music but the narrative: "A bug fell on the ground moving her legs busily. Go bug go," and "My daddy sits in a low chair; I sit in a high chair." As each word is introduced (moon, shoe, hat, car, and so forth) a descriptive sentence and visual feast bring the word to life. The 30-minute program, best viewed in short increments, is ideally suited to toddlers who relish stories before sleep. It's serene and gently paced; even the colors are muted for a soothing story-time experience. Ages 1 to 3. --Lynn Gibson
