Rating: Summary: Quite disappointed Review: After I read all the reviews, I decided to order this product. However, I am quite disappointed when I received it. The product has got good ideas but badly executed. It doesn't really worth an arm and a leg to get it.First of all, my baby wasn't interested at all. Secondly, the babies/toddlers in the DVD are quite ugly. I think the DVD is too long for a young baby. They lost interest after a while. Personally, I prefer the Baby Einstin and Baby Mozart. They are more lively for babies.
Rating: Summary: must buy Review: As a member of a local pre-school association as well as a clinical psychologist and mother of two young boys, my friends and colleagues and I have found all the Brainy Baby DVD's to be wonderful tools to use with our children. And, they make great gifts for friends with new babies and for children's birthdays. My 3-year old, Sam, can read and spell hundreds of words, identify (and spell) shapes and colors and loves listening to classical music. I see how much of this has been stimulated by watching the Brainy Baby videos. Each of the Brainy Baby DVD's has been a hit and the sum of them have provided a wonderful pre-school education for my kids.
Rating: Summary: my 5 month old loves it! Review: Before I purchased this DVD - I rented it from the library along with Baby Einstein language DVD. My daughter loves the Baby Brainy and will watch the whole thing - the Einstein she only watched for about 5 minutes and turned away.
Rating: Summary: Great Hit With My Baby Review: I have a 13 month old boy and he has both the Right and the Left Brain video and he loves them! I can have the TV on any time around him but he only really pays attention to it when I put on one of these videos. I tried the Baby Einstein videos and Baby Mozart held his interest for a bit, but nothing like the Brainy Baby series. I've noticed that at first he loved the Right Brain the most but as he gets older he is becoming more and more interested in the Left Brain Video. I have also lent them to my friends that have the Einstein videos and some of them have gone out to buy the Brainy Baby series. I'm on my way now to try some more of the series
Rating: Summary: UN-Brainy Video Review: I'm not a big fan of these types of videos in the first place. This video, claiming to be a "logic" sided brain tool, is drivel. There are tons of illogical things that happen on screen. Why to stacking rings get put on by an invisible hand? (We only see the shadow.) Why to objects instantly appear. "It's like magic!" But it's not magic, and it's not logical. Hey play with your kids yourself. Don't watch videos, go outsite. And most of all don't use these videos as babysitters. Never ever. ...
Rating: Summary: The best set of Videos for kids Review: My child loved these videos. The colors, the music, and the other babies. My son, at 15months old, not only knew his alphabet but he could recognize and say each letter. My children don't watch a lot of tv but when they do it should be educational. And this will be a video they will learn from. By the way, my son also knows his colors and shapes from the other videos in this collection!
Rating: Summary: Good concept but Right Brain is better for my 1 year old Review: My daughter won't watch the left brain video but pretty much throws a party everytime I put the right brain on. The video just isn't very interesting. Parts of it are like "D A D D Y" spells Daddy. My 1 year old isn't ready for this yet and gets bored with it that she ends up giving up on the video. So we haven't made it through the entire video yet. Since I put the video on whenever I really need to get something done, I can't afford to have her become uninterested in it within 3 minutes. So I usually resort to putting on the Right Brain or one of the Baby Einstein videos (Mozart, Beethoven or Bach - the rest aren't as good).
Rating: Summary: Could be a lot better. Nice images but boring. Review: My kids (ages 3 and 1 )have been growing up with the Baby Einstein series. I decided to try something else. The "Left Brain" format is very similar using colorful toys, children and classical music. They just don't have the nack at entertaining the way Baby Einstein does. My 1 year old enjoys it more than the 3 year old, who just wanders off, but even he gets bored before its over.
Rating: Summary: These are the BEST ! Review: Our family has both the Brainy Baby series and the baby einstein videos. Brainy Baby simply beats Baby Einstein hands down! ... Everyone that we talk to gives Brainy Baby a 5 star rating. ... The Brainy Baby series is most certainly worth the investment. As a mom, here is what I would tell you: ...If your child watches Brainy Baby, they actually LEARN their ABC's, 123's, Colors, etc. as well as being entertained with BEAUTIFUL images! (Not to mention that Brainy Baby is 50% longer than Einstein for the same price). Brainy Baby has not only taught our 17 month old daughter the ENTIRE alphabet, but it has been a lifesaver for my sanity too! I can't imagine any home without Brainy Baby. One more thing... for those of you who don't believe in these types of videos for early education, does your baby know the alphabet at age 17 months? These products can only help. Why wait until your child is too old to benefit.
Rating: Summary: Best of the baby videos! Review: The Brainy Baby videos, right brain and left brain, are the best of the baby videos by far. They are so much better to me than the Baby Einstein videos -- first of all, there is some diversity in the babies and children featured in the videos! Also, the production quality is good, the music is great, the tapes last a tad longer than the Baby Einsteins, so you're getting more tape for your money, and the narrator's voice is very baby friendly without being irritating to the parents. This was a great purchase!!
