We were given this CD as a new baby gift from my boss. It was a hit with my newborn son, that was unfortunately blessed with colic. When he gets upset and is inconsolable with walking, rocking, hugging, and other techniques, we have found this CD to help him relax and fall asleep.

I played this for my grandson when he was only 6 weeks old and it captured his attention. Now that he is 4 months he watches the entire video (~30 minutes) laughs at parts, makes waving hand gestures or just intently watches it. The music is very good, colors and pictures change often to hold his attention without getting bored. I enjoy watching him watch the video.

As a parent you have to depend on other people to help you decide what is good to expose your child to. Unfortunately, the Baby Einstein company is not exposing your child to good music! It is performed by a synthesizer and while some of the songs are played well, many are not.

Their choice of the music to include IS wonderful. They are great works, but they are performed poorly. If you wish to show your child good music DO NOT BUY these CD's! Purchase the songs that are contained on these CD's performed by real musicians, not a computer or synthesizer.

I have already had one of these CD's and we all love it.I have two Grandchildren arriving soon,so I am ordering another.I feel this will be a good stimulant for a baby. We have not been a fan of classical music but this has been a hit.

This was my first purchase with Amazon. I am very pleased and will buy again from Amazon.

NEW YORK, Jul 22 (Reuters Health) -- The "Mozart effect" -- a reported temporary increase in intelligence after listening to a Mozart piano sonata -- does not hold up in repeat studies, according to a report published in the journal Psychological Science.

There is "little evidence to support basing intellectual intervention programs on the existence of the Mozart effect," according to researchers led by Dr. Kenneth Steele, an assistant professor in the department of psychology at Appalachian State University in Boone, North Carolina.
