This is a cute DVD but not as good as the Baby Genuius Nursery Rhymes DVD. First of all I don't think these songs are FAVORITE CHILDREN'S SONGS. The list includes "take me out to the ballgame" and "yankee doodle dandy". I think some of the songs are good, but they should have had Children's songs for young children, since this DVD is definite geared towards younger children. "Sing, Dance and Play" - sort of the BG theme song is done nicely. My granddaughter is a year old - loves the Nursery Rhymes DVD and watches this one - it's just not as good. But it's still entertaining for your child.

My 1 year old son gets hypnotized by these videos. He doesn't sit still long enough to watch anything else on TV, but the puppets/animation/kids keep him watching. Always welcome in my home.

My 12 month old HATES the car. She has hated it since day 1. We have a DVD player in the car and play the Baby Einstein videos for her. She will tolerate them for a little while. She received the BG video as a birthday gift. She LOVES it. She has watched it over and over again. She has never been so quiet in the car. This has totally saved me! I can't wait to get more. I highly recommend this DVD!

Upon first opening this and placing it in the DVD player, I was quite annoyed with my sister in law for buying us something so annoying. After seeing how the kids react to it and beg for it I realized that their squealing with glee far outweighs how much it annoys me. It is great for them to learn all of the standard childrens songs, the cd that comes along with it gives me a nice break from watching the dvd. I plan on putting all of the songs on my daughters FP3 player.

I bought this title after the great experience with the "Nursery Rhymes" DVD. I have several unpleasant problems with this title:
1. The quality of audio is very bad, it sounds like a home recording
2. Images and scenes are average, not much effort has been put into them
3. The accompanying Compact Disc turned out to be in SPANISH! (no mention on Amazon about this)
4. Though my baby son is totally riveted when i put on the Nursery Rhymes DVD, he couldn't care less when this one is playing
5. What songs are these anyway? the lyrics seem altered in a very weird way, for incomprehensible reasons

Our daughter absolutely loves this DVD and we also have the CD in the car. She is only 18 months old and knows most of the songs and can relate to real objects as well. (example - bus, muffin, boat, etc.) Very educational and great for kids. I must add that she hasn't been interested in the other Baby Genius videos we got her that don't have songs or talking in them.

This is one of the best videos yet, our 18 month old just loves it, she will not move from the tv when it is on and can do most of the songs and dances, this really entertains her. This video got me started and I had to get them all because I was so happy with how she reacted to this one. She loves us to play the cd when traveling in the car and she sings the entire time while traveling, it is son cute thanks to Baby Genius it is a memory we will cherish.

My Son is 20 months and he loves this dvd. he watches is 2-3 times before he goes to sleep. Sometimes if i needed few min break like taking shower and taking out the trash. he'll keep still and watch without moving an inch from his seat. The only thing is it's only few songs on a 33 min dvd. i wish there's more but i also have the nursery rhymes baby genius and he likes it too.

This is the worst dvd I ever bought. All the positive reviews must have been written by the makers of this dvd. First of all, this dvd was not at all engaging. Second, the music videos are just shots of children playing. Third, the main characters are (in plain language)crappy. Fourth, lyrics did not accompany the songs. Some songs are so fast that it was difficult to follow if you didn't know the lyrics. I knew most of the songs, but not my daughter. Aaaaghhhh, this dvd is so bad that I'm not going to spend any more time on this review. It's not worth it. I'm just going to make this short with one final statement: Buy at your own risk!

I have ordered the DVD set as advertised here and our girl really loves the DVD so we wanted to listen to the bonus CD in the car but it turned out that all songs are in Spanish. I am pretty upset that we really don't have any use for the CD now and nobody at Baby Genius has responded to this issue. Did anyone else receive the bonus CD in Spanish? Why did it not say that on the cover? I would love to get it in English but I am not willing to buy the whole DVD/CD set again and risk to get it in Spanish once more.
