4.0 out of 5 stars Too bad they lost the touch!, August 22, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Baby Einstein Gift Pack Volume 1 (Baby Bach/Baby Newton/Language Nursery/Baby Shakespeare) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Both of my children are in awe whenever one of these videos begins. The DVD formats and added content are superb. My son (3 yo) fell in love with them all over again now that my 1 yo daughter watches them! Their favorites are Baby Bach, Baby Shakespeare, Baby Van Gogh (my favorite too) and even Baby Mozart. They also both loved Baby Eistein, although my husband is disturbed by it because the words do not match the pictures. I guess it's not for concrete thinkers! The Doolittle series is slightly less clever, but cute...But WOW did they ever drop the ball with Baby Newton. Their new affiliation with Disney was a disaster! VERY different graphics (goofy computer graphics added), boring presentation (my kids didn't even finish watching it)...it got stale real fast. I hope they change back to the old format! We also recommend Bee Smart Baby Vocabulary, the First Impressions Series, and Baby Genius! All excellent!

4.0 out of 5 stars Mostly good, if used correctly....., February 27, 2004

By	L. Love "Kerri" (The Woodlands, Tx. USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Baby Einstein Gift Pack Volume 1 (Baby Bach/Baby Newton/Language Nursery/Baby Shakespeare) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

We have all of these videos and my kids love them. They are bright and colorful, with loads of great images and top notch music. I like that they vary and have different themes, our favorite is Baby Newton. I have no idea why they prefer that one, but they just do.

Now, I've read some negative reviews on here and I must say I can see the point that those parents are trying to get across. But Julie Clark tells us at the end of every video that you should watch with your child and discuss what you are seeing. This is an opportunity to interact with your child, this is not intended as an electronic babysitter (Nick Jr. is the electronic video, or didn't you know?). So if used properly they are learning videos. My two kids, aged 4 and 2, enjoy the chance to spend time with a parent and learn about colors, numbers, shapes, etc. For that purpose they are great!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best video series I have found, April 16, 2003

By	L. Thomas "bluedoberman" (Arlington, TX United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Baby Einstein Gift Pack Volume 1 (Baby Bach/Baby Newton/Language Nursery/Baby Shakespeare) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have purchased several of the video series. Baby Genius and Bee Smart are pretty good. I also having the Signing Time videos. While I love Signing Time, my son is not quite into it yet. None of them keep my 7 month old fascinated like the Baby Einstein series. I have the language skills, bach, Mozart, and Beethoven. Doolittle is a little disappointing. I have not purchased Newton yet, and may not, due to reading of the reviews. But, in comparison to the other series out there, Baby Einstein is the top. I still use the other videos, because they seem to provide more direct education. Yet, I have to work harder to keep my son's attention with the other videos. Just today, my son was getting fussy and would not soothe. I turned on baby Mozart and he has not made a peep. I may not get him to sleep anytime soon, though.
