Baby Einstein - Baby Neptune - Discovering Water [DVD]

This is my 16 month old daughters first Baby Einstein video and she absolutely LOVES it! She will sit captivated for the entire 30 minutes and watches it 4 times a day on average! She wont sit still for ANY OTHER video. The scenes are brief enough that it keeps her interest and so beautiful and peaceful that I find myself hooked as well. She especially enjoys the ducks, the puppeteering with sound effects, and the kids brushing their teeth. I have already bought her another in the series to see if we can interest her in it too. Disney did a great job exploring different types of water, activities using water, and animals that live in water. I really feel shes learning something while she watches.

This is a review about Baby Neptune. I am not sure why so many review for Language Nursery are showing up here but I just wanted to clarify what I was reviewing. I got this for my son well over two years ago. He loved fish so I thought that this would be fun. He loved it and still does now at the age of three. My 1 yr old loves it too. They love the music and the shots of the water. The puppets are entertaining and they love to watch the kids on the video play. They love to sit and watch the aquarium part on the bonus features and it is a great way to calm them down. I would highly recommend this video especially if your child likes fish and water.

I was hesitatnt to let my baby watch t.v. but when I needed to he would watch these with interest. I dont recommend past 12 months but for a 6 month old, it is about right.

My daughter LOVES this video. She can sit for a very long time glued to it, thank heavens for repeat play! ( I love that feature) She has been watching it since she was five months old. It just grabs her attention. She loves the aquarium featurette, as well. I had made Aquarium and Water my overall theme for her toys and gear since I was unaware of whether I was having a boy ir girl and this goes perfectly with her other gear (highchair, etc.) She even loves the CD version of this video for the car ride. She still recognizes the music. I also strongly recommend Galileo, Van Gogh and Noah.

I was as disappointed with this video and its rave reviews as was my 6 month old son. While I wasnt expecting a half hour video to teach him the laws of gravity I also didnt expect to watch a video that appears to be home-made. I could have just as easily picked up a camcorder, taped some of the toys I have around the house and dubbed in some classical musical for effect. This video is very amateur-like in style and content. Shame on the producers and manufacturers of this video for capitalizing on the names Mozart and Einsten and for taking advantage of parents who eagerly purchase these videos with the hopes of enhancing their childrens intellect. Call me old fashioned but I think Ill stick with the tried and true and continue to read to my son rather than try to distract him with a video.

Im a little surprised by some of the poor ratings this video has been given. My son is now 8 1/2 months old and has been watching this video for 3 months and absolutely loves it. It holds his attention (and mine) the entire time! I think it is actually very funny. It is one that I do not mind watching over and over. It is shorter than some of the others; it seems like more could have been done with it, but what there is is terrific! I definitely recommend.

My 10 month old son has been watching the Baby Einstein series of videos since he was 3 months old. He loves them all. Ill put him in front of the TV in his exersaucer or playpen and I can get the things I need to get done while hes watching. Baby Einstein is especially good because it introduces him to sounds that he will need to learn different languages that he will not pick up in his everyday surroundings. Ive tried other brands of baby oriented videos and he doesnt like them at all, but I pop a Baby Einstein video in and hes entralled.

Educational entertainment is best and my Granddaughter loved these. Music and filming is perfect. Weve watched it over and over.

This one has failed to keep my kids attention for some reason. Its difficult to figure out why - its the same format as Baby Mozart, Baby Bach, Baby Van Gogh - but for some reason, this one doesnt work for him. Musically, its not as good as the more musical-intensive ones (Mozart, Bach) - but of the Baby Einstein series videos that weve seen - the namessake video has been the biggest dud of em all.

Our son really enjoys watching this video...I have a hard time because, of course, I cant understand what they are saying. He watches like he understands though. All of the Baby Einstein videos we have are very good!
