Fast-forward through the first five minutes...,
By etacb "Mom of three sons" (Melrose, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Baby Beethoven [VHS] (VHS Tape)
The "meat" of this video is as enjoyable as the previous two musical-themed Baby Einstein videos (Baby Bach, and Baby Mozart), but I am disappointed that Disney, who is now the parent company of Baby Einstein, chose to change the format we moms have come to depend on. When you have a crying baby, it's always great to just pop in a Baby Einstein video, because "the show" usually starts up right after the caterpillar creeps across the screen. Then it's usually 28 or so minutes of non-stop fun, followed by the "Hi, I'm Julie Clark..." advertising portion, and then on to the credits, which show each toy that was used in the video. This was always great because a baby would still be watching right up until the very end even though "the show" was over. Not so with the Baby Beethoven VHS! This video features a full five minutes of the newly redone advertising portion AT THE START OF THE VIDEO! This does not capture a baby's attention right away like all the other Baby Einstein videos. Also, since the ads are at the start of the video, the tape ends rather abruptly, and although the manufacturers of toys used are names, each toy is not shown again. This is a bummer if you want to buy any of the toys and you don't know what they're called. Aside from these couple of complaints, the video itself is good, but I would really recommend to Disney, for future Baby Einstein videos, that they please put the ad section at the end instead of up front.

Smashing!,
By "skiwqi" (Norwalk, CT USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Baby Einstein - Baby Beethoven - Symphony of Fun (DVD)
My 6 month old daughter watched Baby Mozart VHS first and sat through the entire video (about 30 minutes)! A couple of days later I played this DVD which is almost double the length, she again watched the whole thing attentatively. Since the dvd is easier to play, we have been playing it at least a couple of time a day and everytime she quietly watches it, rubbing her little feet in satisfaction. Further, she watches it all by herself on her bouncer seat, or sitting on sofa, giving us plenty of time to ourselves - since she loves us to hold her these days.I tried to play others like the ballet Swan Lake, thinking the beautiful classical music along with ballet would do the same trick. Boy was I wrong! I guess that's why these Baby Einstein titles are no ordinary products, they simply catch baby's attention easily. Get these titles, they are well worth the money and they'll last a long time.

Not Disneyfied,
By A Customer
This review is from: Baby Beethoven [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Just wanted to let anyone who was disappointed by Disney's influence over the last release (Baby Newton) know that this newest video is more or less true to form of the original videos.
