Baby Einstein - Baby Wordsworth - First Words - Around the House [DVD]

My kids just love this DVD. The music is typical of BE. I was also able to fast forward/skip through all of the commercials. So if you love Baby Einstein, this is a definate must have!

I actually got this for my 7-month old baby girl, but my 3 year old is enjoying it more. My 3 year old is speech delayed and has started learning sign language--he loves and enjoys watching this video. He copies the signs and says the words at the same time. I think that it is a good video to have. I hope that my 7 month old picks it up too, but I think she might be a little too young to sign. Im not sure what the age recommendation is, but I dont think it hurts her to start watching it now.

I confess to being a bit amazed at the quality of the product. With the Disney money and a talented actress involved, I was amazed at what they offer. Look - I am absolutely fascinated by the baby signing movement and was anticipating something extraordinary, given the resources behind it, but it is pretty basic that if you are interested in babies learning to sign, it would be useful to consider the world from the babys point of view. So where do words such as puzzle and computer come from? Pity! If you want the gold standard, have a look at My Baby Can Talk for your baby.

People seem bent out of shape that it isnt a great baby sign language video - well I didnt think that was the point. Its title simply says first words around the house. I bought it so my daughter could learn those words and the signs are just a nice bonus! Though I did think it was odd they had a computer in the playroom...

grandson loved when he was infant.

Ok

I am the Great Grandmother so I do not get to ro see how this works. Can’t tell you likes or dislikes but I can see how they advance in learning I know the mothers are really the one to tell you

If youre going to buy a childrens video, this a great video for toddlers. I recommend it over other kids videos because it is fun, not too fast-paced or cartoon animated, and the puppets are really cute. My kids liked it. Having said that, I have a beef with the title Baby Einstein and marketing this to BABIES. It seems to imply that watching these videos is good for babies, which they are NOT! These videos may be great for older kids, but definitely not for babies brains. After some research I found out that: 1) brain wave activity in babies is slower when watching television than when sleeping. 2) for every hour of television a baby watches a day, their chances of acquiring an attention deficit disorder increases by 10%, 3) for every hour of television viewed daily at 4 yrs old, there is a significant odds increase for being a bully later on, and 4)consistent, heavy television viewing (more than 2 hrs daily) throughout early childhood can cause behavior, sleep and attention problems. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no television for children under 2, and no more than two hours of media (tv, videos, video games & computers) daily after age 2! I think its important for parents and caregivers to be aware of this so they can make better informed choices. I hope it encourages some people to limit television usage for babies and look for other outlets when possible. For those looking to calm babies and build better brains, I recommend baby carriers because studies show that infants who are carried an extra 3 hours per day cry 40% less, and this effect is lasting over time! Frequently held babies pick up verbal skills faster and develop better core muscle strength and balance. Also, learning to communicate in sign language can reduce frustration and tantrums, accelerate language development and promote parent-child bonding in infants and toddlers.

This is a great DVD. I bought it based on the description on Amazon. It shipped quickly. My son LOVES this video. He is very interactive with it and has learned a lot from it already.

This is the most relaxing Baby Einstein. The music, art, and photos soothe even the most frazzled mom. I speak from experience.:) Highly recommended.
