My daughter loves her Baby Mozart. She dances to the music, she points to the objects on the screen, she loves the sights and sounds, and she intently watches for the whole half-hour. You can just see he little mind working, just wondering how those objects move! Of all the Baby Einstein options, I would recommend this one as #1!

- What a waste of money.
This was my first Baby Einstein purchase....and MY LAST !. I found this DVD to be insulting to the intelligence of infants and toddlers.
This was truly a waste of money !
Rating: - In my opinion, another Baby Einstein flop
A lot of the toys shown in the dvd are the same old toys in the other Baby Einstein videos. This, like most Baby Einstien videos, have the typical toys, spinning things, shiny things and puppets. What really is the purpose of this? No words are spoken in this video. There is no live-action when it comes to the pictures of fruits, vegetables, animals, etc. They are just still pictures/photos. I just can't believe some of these Baby Einstein videos! It seems like they just have an idea or two and try to fill up a half hour tape and make tons of money marketing this to parents who think they are doing their children something wonderful, helpful and educational by purchasing them. And yet people will sing praises about it. I just don't get it. I have watched and reviewed 16 Baby Einstein videos and out of them all there are only 4 that I liked. They are Baby Neptune (water), Baby Newton (shapes), Baby Galileo (sky) and Numbers Nursery (1 - 5). The rest are such a waste of money and time, in my opinion. I couldn't even begin to think of letting my child sit and watch all but the four I think are decent. How can this nonsense be good for their little minds?? I have written reveiws for them all.
Rating: - What's wrong with real music?
My 14 month old has been listening to orchestral music since before she was born and loves it!! Why can't they use the real music on these DVD's? I can't stand the cheap synthesizer versions of this music. It is actually more educational for them to listen to the WHOLE ORCHESTRA and become familiar with all those sounds. Besides, they have also removed all the "musical" aspects of the actual music - no dynamics, no emotion. I think someone just decided that it would be more cost-effective to make a cheap synthesizer version of these tunes. I think it is mind-numbing. My daughter taps her feet and nods her head just fine to the orchestral versions of these pieces. (expecially Vivaldi's Four Seasons and the Bach Brandenburg Concertos!!)

- A necesssary evil
Bought this although I know I'm not supposed to show my 10 month old TV (TV isn't recommended for children under 2). He has to use a nebuliser a few times a day. This is a good distraction for him/keeps him still. Outside of his treatments, I'm not comfortable with his watching the tape because I'd rather he learn to play with his toys himself or with me rather than watch some personless hands play with them on tv. He really likes the tape (reaches for the images and "talks" to the tv). I don't see how this program helps his development. It does help me give him his medicine, however. I can see the temptation for an at home parent who is trying to get work done to use this because it is so mesmerizing. We're going to discipline ourselves to make this the baby's special treat.
