Summary: One of the better Baby Einstein DVDs
Review: This was the first Baby Einstein DVD we purchased and our son, who was about a year old then and is now 16 months, has enjoyed it very much. He is a very active child but for quite a while he would sit completely still to watch, and now he has hand motions for some of the scenes and applauds at the end. As other people have mentioned, the animal footage is more interesting for an adult to watch than the endless parade of toys that fill up a lot of the other videos in the series (especially the classixal music ones). I personally like the quiet atmosphere of the video -- no loud noises, flashy pictures or dialogue -- just animal footage, adorable puppet shows and a small number of toys. My son has learned to recognize the animals shown and even has favorite scenes. Definitely get DVD because the baby will want to watch "continuous play"!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Slight disappointment to the Einstein collection.
Review: We have just about every video in the series for our 2 year old and most are good. However, comparing this baby dolittle world animals to neighborhood animals, this one is inferior. The footage of the nine or so wild animals (elephant, giraffe, tropical birds, turtles, dolphin, fish, lion, monkey, tiger) is great, as is the music (much like the other videos). However, the puppeteering is SO tiring after a while, and just not very good in this one. Way too much time is wasted in between animal sequences, with dull puppet displays and babies horribly dressed in animal costumes. The toys are neat but otherwise, show us more animals and lighten up on the other stuff please! If you are trying to choose between baby dolittle's, buy neighborhood animals, there are probably better wild animal videos out there.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Perfect for 1 1/2 year old
Review: We just got this DVD about a month ago, but it has become our 20 mo. old daughter's hand's down favorite. "Jane Monkey, watch it?" is just about her most common sentence, and she talks constantly about the animals she's seen on the video. It's also helped her learn the names of a whole new set of animals. She now recognizes zebras and elephants off screen, too, and she's working on the differences between lions/tigers and parrots/lovebirds. We've loved most of the Baby Einstein videos, but this is our pick for 1 1/2-2 year olds.

Summary: yea for julie clark
Review: We love the baby einstein series! Our 13 mo. old is captivated by the videos. For us, the only way to get the baby to sit quietly in his highchair and eat is to put on one of the baby einstein videos. Baby Doolittle being the most recent addition to our collection, we couldn't be more pleased.

We do joke, though, because the baby is so completly transfixed by the videos, that Julie Clark- the creator- has brain-washed our child. But if it gets him to eat all his breakfast we won't complain too much.
