Summary: It made my 3-month-old squeal with delight!
Review: Although we limit the amount of TV our daughter watches, we let her start watching this video at 3 months for the colors and movement. She actually squealed with delight each time she watched it!The video shows colorful graphics and toys while people say the alphabet, count to 20 or say a nursery rhyme in many languages. I only wish there were a translation for each nursery rhyme with the video. We have several other Baby Einstein videos and this one and Baby Shakespeare are her favorite! We like the music on Baby Bach, but agree that the videography is not as good and there are too many features of Julie Clark's children.

Summary: does not fit age suggestion
Review: This video would be ok for an older child. The majority of the video is in different languages. They don't even give you subtitles to help the children possibly learn the other languages. There are only a few in english. The only section where you can select an English only part (DVD) they only do the alphabet and count to 20. My 7 month old is very attentive with these videos, but even he was not entertained, not even by the colors.

Summary: Disappointing...not very stimulating!!!!
Review: I was really excited when I first saw this DVD, however once I played it for my son I found it to be very disappointing. First, there is no way to identify the languages. Second, this tape/DVD should come with a campanion (pamphlet, or learning cards,...) that will at least spell out phonetically the alphabet and numbers of the different languages, so that you can pronounce them for your child. Perhaps, they should also take the time to give you the names or backgrounds of the nursery rhymes. Third, I know BABY EINSTEIN carefully chooses specific images that are supposed to stimulate a baby's mind, but if you actually understand any of the languages you'll notice that the images do not correspond with what's being said. If there is no connection between what is being said and what is being seen, then your child can't really grow with this product. It doesn't make any sense. I think that the people of BABY EINSTEIN should re-think this one! I want my money back!

Summary: Keeping it simple in an overstimulated society
Review: I have been extremely pleased with the Baby Einstein products. So many parents are exposing their children to loud fast- paced videos with characters that have nothing to do with the real world. Children are so saturated at an early age with this overstimulation that it seems it takes more and more to entertain them and a lot less imagination used. Baby Einstein is the very opposite of the norm and especially the language nursery format. Yes, it is slow paced and much of what is being said does not go along with what is shown. But my child's attention is held by what he sees and hears on this video. I have shown it to him since he was 3 months old and now he is 9 months and this is his favorite! (I have 11 other videos by baby einstein) He laughs and talks at this video and trys to look around me if I am in the way as if he has never seen it before. I thought this video would not interest my son, but I wasn't thinking of how he sees this new world of his. I definitely reccomend this video and all the others and encourage all parents to look at it through their children's eyes and then enjoy it with them.

Summary: Daughter likes it but couple problems
Review: My daughter seems to like this dvd, though not as much as the Baby Mozart and Beethoven dvds. (She's 6 months).
The timing of the video could be faster, they stay on static subjects too long.
My biggest problem with this dvd is that the objects they show don't really have anything to do with what is being said. I find it a odd that they don't show things that correlate with what is being talked about (whether the language is English or foreign).

Summary: LOVE IT!
Review: I put this video in for my baby when he was 2 months old and he watched it. By 4 months, he would smile at certain parts of the video. He is now 7 months and he LOVES it. He gets excited as I am turning on the DVD player. He will sit in my lap through the entirety of the film and smile and sometimes laugh. I don't know what it is about this video, but it is his favorite. Definitely recommend.

Summary: WAYYY OVERrated
Review: This product is so incredibly overrated. My child is more entertained watching commercials. After I saw this video I was convinced that parents buy Baby Einstein products for the name rather than the quality of the product. "Baby Einstein".. so alluring..Good marketing on Baby Einstein's behalf. I tried it so many times all the way up to now that she is 9 1/2 months.. she doesn't watch it for more than a minute or 2. I really can't understand everyone's fascination with it. Its so poorly and cheaply made. I can just show her toys and put on international radio stations from the inernet to expose her to other languages... for that matter.. I could do that in front of a video camera, call it Baby Genius and sell it.. it wouldn't be much different from this Video.

Summary: Danielle
Review: My baby loves watching this movie. We speak English and German at home. This is a fun movie to try and figure which language is playing. My baby enjoys trying to make sounds she hears on the tv. This isn't a movie to teach your baby to speak languages, but rather to teach your baby to make various sounds that they may not hear on a normal basis. This movie is lots of fun to watch with your baby.

Summary: They missed the mark on this one! Confusing and Boring!
Review: We must have all the Baby Einstein DVDs to date and this one goes beyond useless and a complete waste of money. My daughter comes from a multi-lingual household and her father and I would not watch this DVD more than once. My daughter hates it too! We started watching the DVDs when she was 8months old, she is now 22months old. I was expecting it to at least intrigue her but it does not have any teaching material enclosed in these senseless clips. I have spent half my life overseas and the languages spoken don't make any sense with what is being represented and she finds it extremely boring. On a different note all the other DVDs are fantastic and highly recommended! We almost exclusively watch them, she loves them and asks for them by name! Different DVDs will intrigue your child at different stages of he/her development and he/she will love them. They are defintely worth the money.They will give you some much needed down time!

Summary: NOT the Best in This Series
Review: GENERAL: The Baby Einstein series of videos (despite the implication of the title) really probably place more emphasis on entertainment than education. They contain music and images dispersed with puppet shows and occasional printed and spoken words. The images change frequently enough to satisfy a baby's naturally short attention span. Every baby is different, but these videos seem to appeal to most; my daughter loves them, and has learned many head and arm motions, dances, etc. from them. They are a part of her bedtime routine (we watch one per evening) and seem to keep her calm and content (and to give me peace) at what is often a baby's fussiest time of day. Unlike many children's videos, they are not particularly annoying to me as an adult, and I can sit and cuddle with her and stare at them mindlessly as one might at an aquarium or other soothing object. (This is more true of the earlier videos in the series, which do not have silly songs.)
SPECIFIC: This is my least favorite in the series, and I have seen many. My daughter doesn't seem to dislike it, though it is slightly less interesting to her than the others. My objection to it is that the words being spoken in the various languages do not correspond to the images shown. What is the point of this? It seems to me that to a young child in the process of learning a single language, this would cause only confusion. Nor are the languages identified before they are spoken or translated after they are spoken (you must go to an insert for that information). There is no music in this one, although the words are spoken with cadence.
