Baby Dolittle - Neighborhood Animals

Rating:
Summary: 10 Stars!!!!
Review: This is the BEST thing on DVD by Einstein in my opinion. My son (2 yr) already knew all the animals they presented, but it is fun and the music is great. The DVD edition allows you to select play music only so we do that as background to our play rather than just sit glued to the TV. The flash card element...SUPER!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND. We have several VHS of this line, and the DVD is by far WORTH the extra $$ because of the added elements (flashcards etc)

Summary: Excellent for everyone!
Review: Thank goodness for this DVD, it has saved me many times! It is great! My 10 month old got this when he was 8 months old and he has been captivated for 2 months now. He loves Bard and all the puppets. The classical music is played sort of cheesily, but I figure when he is older we will buy CD's with the real artists. What really gets him is the cat segment, will laugh and smile at it. Jaden has been watching the Baby Einsien series since he was 4 months old and I really believe in them. I am not an advocate for televison for children, but this is great. The puppetry is simple and exciting for small children. There are no scary cartoons or silly antics...it is educational yet fun.

Summary: The Greatest Animal Video Ever
Review: My 11-month old son loves this video, he laughs at the bee joke and claps along with the music. Every morning my son wants to see his movie, he will even look at us and say "Mooovie".
This is a great video to buy, it not only entertains your child but it also helps them to identify and name different animals.
I would say this video is a 'must have' for all parents!

Review: My 16 month old loves this video! I think she is interested because the animals on the video are the same as the ones she sees outside. She isn't as interested in the world animal video.

Summary: Capture your baby's attention
Review: While my husband and I do not believe that television in general is a good stimulatory tool for our child, we believe that the judicious use of DVDs and limited television shows can be educational and fun. We decided to get the Baby Einstein series and this was the first one we bought. From the moment we put the DVD in, and the music started playing, our son (then approximately 4 months old) was captivated. He loves the animals, and as each is introduced we sit with him and read the names of the animal on the screen. The music holds his attention and he becomes so engrossed in it that he jumps during one particular part. He is now 8 months old and still enjoys it very much. We have not had as much success with the others in the series. We also own World Animals and Baby Bach. Baby Bach seems too young, even for him. He has not become so enamored of World Animals for some reason.

Summary: Great for younger babies, too!
Review: Our daughter Erin is only 7 months old and this has become her favorite Baby Einstein DVD. I thought it might be too old for her but gave it to our sitter to play for her 20 month old daughter. Her daughter Katie, Erin, and the other baby there (3 months old) all love it! Katie dances, sings, and repeats the words along with the DVD, Erin laughs and smiles, and Ellie (the youngest) just watches entranced. This DVD ALWAYS brings a smile to Erin's face.

Summary: Better than the Mozart--but a bit disappointing
Review: As a mother of three, I have been discovering children's videos. My children enjoyed this one a bit better than the Mozart, but again, I had a bit of a problem myself with it. It is just not offering enough intelligible information to the age group it is targeted toward. By one year to 4 years, children can comprehend much more than it offers. We really enjoy the Baby Know-It-All series for carla, our 9 month old, and Zaboomafoo for Devon, our 2 year old.

Summary: My 14 month old son LOVES this!
Review: I put this video/cd combo on my son's Christmas wishlist because he enjoyed the Baby Mozart video. WOW! The Baby Dolittle Neighborhood Animals is much better than Baby Mozart, in my opinion. The mixture of real-life footage of animals along with toys and drawings and still photos is great. The kids singing and the animal puppets add to the video too. My son sits through the entire video, pointing and laughing and trying to say the animal names, etc. He absolutely loves it! Entertaining and educational- what more could you ask for. The cd is also a nice bonus!

Summary: Great DVD for all ages
Review: My son (10 months) and my niece (14 months) both love this video. (They love World Animals as well.) They both sit through it, and will come crawling/walking when they hear the intro music. I think it's very educational, and good entertainment too. And the flash cards are a great way to follow up after watching the DVD!
