Summary: Bravo!!!
Review: I bought this video when my son was 7 months. I have never seen a baby so "hooked" at the tv, he didn't even blink. I was some amazed at how interested my son was in the video for such a early stage. After that I used the video to keep my son busy while doing house shores. Later bought other Baby Einstein videos with the same results.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Baby loves it, but Mama is addicted
Review: First off, I have to say that my 11 month old son loves this video as well as Baby Van Gogh. For the past couple of months, when you put on the video, he calms if he is fussy, often will sit on my lap and cuddle, and sits mesmerized by the television. He recognizes the word "video" and turns to look at the TV. If you are sitting on the side of the couch we sit on to watch he gets mad if you don't turn it on.

As a mother I find this a little spooky. Normally he is constantly going around the room, playing with his toys, walking, making lots of noise. But when I turn this on he is usually in one spot, or he will get off my lap and stand in front of the TV for the whole half hour.

I need to keep myself from playing the video too often. Every day I say I will only let him see once, but when he is fussy, when my mother calls, when I need to bring groceries in from the car I stick him in front of the video to keep him happy. Sometimes he watches it a few times a day.

Normally we hardly ever watch tv, maybe a few shows a week and a movie or video on weekends. So I am not a person who has the TV on all day while I am home with my son. But even I find myself using this video as a babysitter.

Maybe all this sounds great to you, you'd love something to keep baby happy and quiet while you go about your day. But I would rather spend time doing more interactive things with him. And after watching this video countless times I have to say it is not the least bit educational. I guess he is learning to remember what will happen in the video and anticipate the puppets, but playing a mozart cd and reading him books would be better. Just more time consuming for me. A baby learns a thousand times more playing and talking with their parents or caregivers.

So I will continue to use this video on rare useful occasions, perhaps purchasing additional ones for variety, but need to keep a strict watch on myself that I don't let my son watch too much during the day. I don't want him to become a couch potato before his first birthday!

Summary: Our daughter's first video/DVD
Review: We bought Baby Mozart for our daughter when she was just 3 months old. The colors fascinated her at such an early age. We continued to collect the Baby Einstein videos and then ended up buying all we could find on DVD. She still watches these at 17 months. I will often put one on to calm her down before her nap time. This is a great gift idea for anyone that has small children or is expecting! We were extremely delighted whenever we got one of the series as a gift.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Worth the money!
Review: This video was given to us as a gift when our daughter was 4 months old and it has been the best gift we have ever gotten. Our daughter was mesmerized from moment one and watches the video almost daily. Her absolute favorite puppet is the green dragon (which I was disappointed to find is not available for purchase). Set your child up in his/her baby swing, turn on the video and enjoy watching your child light up and squeal.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Captivating!!
Review: I first saw this video when a friend was showing it to her child. My three month old was captivated by it so I bought it. She loves it. It really kept her entertained when she couldn't entertain herself and now she still enjoys watching it while playing or eating. My husband and I ate dinner together for the first time in three months once we bought it! I am definately going to get the others! Would make a wonderful shower gift!

Summary: My 8 month old LOVES this!
Review: We bought this DVD when our daughter was 3 months old. At that time she would watch about 3 minutes of it on a good day. We just brought it back out and she LOVES it! The green dragon puppet startles her everytime, but not sure that is necessarily a negative. She reached for the toys, "talks" to the ones she really likes, and is totally interested the whole length of the DVD. I feel good when she watches it because I know she's learning and that's the most important part!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: exellent
Review: My family was amazed when they saw my 2 month old daughter watching the whole video and squealing in delight by some toys and music from it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great!
Review: I bought this for my nephew when he was born and he started watching around 6 months. He LOVES this tape. Now he is 17 months old and he claps his hands and dances to the music (in sync with the beat!). He points to his favorite parts and some parts inexpicably make him laugh. It is great to watch him and it is not so bad for the adults to tolerate either. Now that he is getting older we point to things and name them aloud. I highly recommend this video.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Put your kid in a trance
Review: Seriously, I put this on for my <1 year old daughter and she watches it like she is in a trance. If we would leave this DVD in on repeat, I think she would watch it all day.

Needless to say, we try to limit her DVD viewing to an half hour a day or save it for times when we really need for her to entertain herself.

As with all the Julie Clark videos, she likes them all. Compared to other cartoons she likes the DVDs a lot more.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent video !!
Review: My four months daughter loves this video. She sits in the bouncer and watch it quietly. This video is very educational and can create early development in baby's brain. I love it.
