Amazon.com essential video:
The Baby Einstein Company's "video board books" were designed as music-focused developmental tools to stimulate babies' brains (prompted by researchproving that exposure to classical melodies can improve verbal ability, spatialintelligence, creativity, and memory in youngsters). Now the company isexpanding into other art forms, including color and art. The idea remains thesame--taking bold, beautiful objects (toys, puppets, nature scenes) and settingthem to fun renditions of classical music (their recordings are easily the bestin the crowded field of child development). A new puppet--Vincent Van Goat--introduces the six primary colors and associates them with Van Gogh'spaintings--"The Starry Night" for blue, "Wheat Fields with Reaper" for yellow. The only misstep is the poetry written and read by creator Julie Aigner-Clark, which is strongly reminiscent of Dr. Seuss's My Many Colored Days.
The company suggests the program is for toddlers between the ages of 1 and 4.Harsh sounds between segments--such as balloons popping and tiresscreeching--will draw the attention of youngsters but will probably render the videoinappropriate for babes in arms. The video can be purchased by itself or with abeautifully produced 28-page book featuring Van Gogh's paintings, screen shotsfrom the video, and Clark's poems. The combination set may be the best way toengage 3- and 4-year-olds' interest; they can follow along in the text whilewatching the video. Music includes "The William Tell Overture," "The BlueDanube," "Bolero," and Brahms's "Lullaby." The video also provides informationon the cool toys seen in the ending "Toy Chest" segment. --Doug Thomas

- Good educational video, language tracks are a plus
This video focuses on colors.As it goes through each color, it shows beautiful, vivid images that represent each color.These images captivated the attention of my 1.5-year-old.
The choice of language tracks is a very nice feature. We watched it in Spanish and it plays in full, immersion Spanish.
This DVD is a good choice looking for something that is entertaining and educational for their child, offering the extra bonus of foreign language immersion.

- Baby loved it, BUT...
as much as baby loved it, I really couldn't justify allowing her to watch it more than a few times.After a child gets the idea of colors (which doesn't take too long, really), this is pure entertainment and actually king of mind-numbing (or should i say baby-dumbing). better picks are Trebellina (music dvd for babies), Muzzy (language dvd for baby) or even a brainy baby.
