Classical Baby: Im Grown Up Now: The Poetry Show

My daughter loves this DVD. Its very calming and is great before nap-time or bed-time. I only wish they had more poems and less commentary. The commentary interrupted the flow of the DVD, but its still great. I hope they make another one.

This is more for a toddler age!! Its unlike all of the other Classical Babys. HBO missed the mark with this one.

As a fan of Classical Baby products, I worried that Poetry might be too advanced for my toddler. Nope. She adores it. Additionally, she re-enacts the scene on the dvd cover -- she lays on her stomach and reads thick books while quoting the poetry to herself. Poetry takes a difficult subject and brings it to toddler level, without watering it down. The segments are interspersed with small children who explain the poems and explain how poetry works. The animation exceeds industry standards. As an adult, Ive never liked poetry, but now Im fascinated by it. This dvd is phenomenal for both toddlers and adults. I highly recommend Classical Baby: Poetry.

This video includes a good selection of poems read and illustrated in interesting ways. Some of the poems are very beautifully done. Great introduction to poetry.

This DVD is great for kids who want to know what poetry is. The poems cover a wide range of styles and the kids commentaries are nice.

The music is great and my son absolutely loves the animation. He is glued to the TV screen when I put the classical baby DVDs on. He smiles & happily claps along with the characters. each video is 30 mn and at his age that enough. I

Its a calm video that adults wont mind watching over and over. This is a really great series (the art and classical music ones, too). Our son even knows some of the lines of the poems which he says sometimes.

Beautiful and charming. Gkids love it and so do I ! Presently by children who comment on the nature of poetry. The poems are well chosen representing variety from Frost (Stopping by Woods...to Edward Lears Owl and the Pussycat to Shakespeare)and each is animated and narrated wonderfully by just the right voice for each selection ! Beautiful introduction to poetry! Highly recommend!

Lovely

We own Classical Baby Art, Dance, Music and Poetry and have watched/listened to them now for 5 years without getting sick of them (of course with a few breaks in between). They have now become my gift of choice to new parents.
