Baby Babble - Speech-Enhancing DVD for Babies and Toddlers

The grand kids loved it from the very first time I played the DVD

i read some of the reviews before i purchased it. i agree that the dvd was not made with high tech, the toys used were not even new at all, the instructors making weird sounds (to me). i was disappointed at first and planned to sell it right away. but i thought i should give a try to my son, 16 months. surprisingly,it catches my 16 month boy full attention(he would not pay attention at all to baby bumblebee). he watches for over 2 weeks, he started to copy the sounds and gestures they made in the dvd. sometimes, he will even make the sounds before the instructor does. though , he still only says mama, but i am already so happy with the current result.

My daughter LOVES this video. She always walks over to me with the DVD cover so I can put it on for her. Ive seen some improvements in her speech in the month we have had this video.

I know it already has lots of rave reviews, but I had to plug in mine. Love it! My 2 young sons love it. It gets them to talk more, and say the sounds they dont usually say. I am so impressed. They are also mesmerized by it. For me, as a mom, it is great for getting ideas for how to interact with your kids using their toys, to help them make sounds. Wow! So, even if you are not into having your kids in front of the TV, you can get something out of it by watching it yourself, then doing similar stuff with your kids and their toys!

My daughter LOVES this DVD and she definitely responds to it.

This keeps my sons attention, but in the middle of the video, it has a long part for parents. This always frustrates both my son and I. The speech therapists in the video really focus on mouth movements which is necessary.

Not for me, but for the toddler and the infant. No talking, yet, but were hopeful. Purchased this for our non verbal autistic toddler. He is learning from the represented play. In on Top, etc. 5 month old infant loves the video, too. It did take 5 days in a row before the toddler was interested in it. So, be patient, and keep playing it.

My son has verbal apraxia (brain does not send signals to jaw and mouth properly to speak). Once diagnosed at 2, we began to retrain his brain to use his jaw and mouth properly to form sounds and then words. This DVD was instrumental in getting my son motivated to even attempt to make a sound. I recommend it to anyone who has a speech-delayed child. I wish I would have had it for my older sons articulation speech disorder. My youngest began to use it at 4 or 5 months to ensure proper speech development. She loved it!! It kept her attention and she even tried to model some of the sounds and words. Great product!!!

I agree with some of the reviews where the quality is not as good as say Baby Einstein videos, however, I still recommend this video for children just learning to speak or with speech delay. My two year old son was not frightened by the woman in the black turtleneck although I agree that the facial expressions are pretty bland. I love the tips on helping your child with speech and language at the end of the DVD. My son is already trying to make new sounds since watching for only a few days. The video has given us new ideas on helping our son progress with his speech and language development. Hope this review helps those that are on the fence about purchasing.

We bought this for my 16 month old granddaughter who is only saying dada and sometimes mama. Her Dr. wants her to see a speech therapist but insurance said no. So after researching options we came across this video and purchased it last week. My granddaughter has watched it at least 30 times in the last 6 days! She loves it. When I watched it for the first time with her, she only glanced at it and I thought I was wasting my time, but after playing it 3 times, she is glued to the tv watching every motion. She is making the faces with the two ladies and shakes her head yes and no. She is now attempting to speak and while the words she is trying to say are not completely clear, it is a BIG improvement to only a week ago!! I would highly recommend this video to anyone with a young child who is not on track with communication skills.
