Baby Einstein - Baby Van Gogh - World of Colors [DVD]

I was disappointed with this DVD. I bought it to help me teach my 10 month-old colors. We have to turn the volume way up to hear the colors announced and the corresponding poetry read (which I assume is corresponding -- it is always too soft for me to hear). Then, we are blasted by the music. If I have to leave the room for a couple of seconds and turn the volume up so my son can hear the colors announced the subsequent music blasts our eardrums. The company needs to have done a better job of evening out the volume in production. As an aside, the children shown are often cheesing heavily for the camera which is nauseating -- Im not sure why the creators didnt just show the kids playing. I gave it 3 stars because the CD is very creative -- for each color there are children wearing and playing with different items of that color, the background will be of that particular color, toys will be shown of that color, the host puppet goat will act as if hes painting a Van Gogh painting that has that color as the dominant color, etc. However, clearly stating those colors to reinforce the teaching done at home is a primary purpose of this DVD and because of the audio problem it fails in that aspect.

Wonderful video for little ones!

My grandchildren love it!

Ok

I recently bought the Baby Einstein Van Gogh DVD (NEW) as a gift for my sons Easter basket. The DVD came shipped in a plain black DVD case- no pictures, no title, not one thing on the outside of the case. It also came unwrapped. No cellophane or plastic wrap at all. Theres no way to determine if this item is new or used, plus theres no way to tell what DVD it is when its sitting on a shelf as there is no labeling of any kind. Needless to say this would be an eye sore in my sons Easter basket. Not impressed.

This is a great product; introduces the child to colors with use of different objects (which you can name while youre watching with the baby-helps language) has very nice music and also introduces some of Van Gogh works, BUT, the sound quality is REALY REALY BAD. There are some poems read during the program but it is not audible at all.

Both of my kids loved the baby einstein collection and so did I. It started entertaining both my daughter and son at very early ages which gave momy a little break! However they are a little pricey compared to most videos, they really should come down on the price that way more familes can enjoy these movies.

I find it ironic that the title has Einstein in it when it clearly assumes my child is an idiot. Its almost shameful how this company intimates that they are somehow educational.

This scares my son. He is afraid of the goat, the dancing cacti, and the girl who says purple (dont know why). I am giving it two stars because he enjoys the girl who shakes ribbon off her head.

My 11-year-old autistic grandson loves this one. He loves the Van Gough art work, and now recognizes it when he see it in other places. He loves the sound effects to the fast paint brush and the puppet turning the lights on and off.
