> 3 dayMy two and three year olds have almost all the Baby Einstein DVD and this is one of their favorite. They beg to watch it and laugh out loud at the puppets. As usual, I am happy with the classical music, art work, and learning elements.

> 3 dayMy three year old sons favorite Baby Einstein by far!! In fact he watched it so many times it got scrathes beyond belief and now doesnt work anymore so therefore I came to amazon.com to purchase another one. Maybe Ill do the same thing in a year or so when this new copy is all messed up. The Zebras are his favorite and even for adults, its way better than many of the other DVDs in the Baby Einstein series. Dont pay attention to the less favorable reviews - the kids LOVE THIS ONE and its a slam-dunk purchase.

> 3 dayWe have twins that just turned 1 on 3/06. They love this DVD and it gives me time to do a little cleaning, eating, or reading. And at the end when the dancing begins, our twins join in bouncing and laughing!

> 3 daymy son loves these videos, I was AMAZED he can watch them for hours or just have them on when he is playing with his other toys. When he gets very upset and night sometimes and I put one of the DVDs on and it calms him right down and helps him go to sleep! I love them!

Greater than one weekWe have two Baby Einstein videos and my 23 month old loves them both. She likes the colors and puppets of this one - puppets who keep trying to dance around a maypole but it starts to rain, until finally they dress with rain gear; puppets who play in the sun but get burned, then put on sunscreen thick and foamy, then say baa baa. Its funny! I love the nature footage, especially the slow motion of rain drops. Since watching this video she also now loves to paint.

> 3 dayYes, the commercials are crass, but once you get past that this DVD is one of the best especially for older infants. I started showing my son Baby Bach and Baby Mozart around 3 months (along with a few others, but I think those two are thest best for young infants.) Around 4 months I wanted to introduce my son to a little more mature viewing. Monet is recommended for 6 months and above, and it was around 5 months that this became his absolute favorite. At 9 months now, this DVD is still his favorite. The puppets are incredibly cute and funny, the music is pretty good, and the visuals are stunning. It is my favorite to watch also!! I would HIGHLY recommend this to slightly older babies. Baby McDonald is okay, but I am still waiting for Baby Neptune to grab his attention. For babies under 5 months, I think Bach and Mozart are the best.

> 3 dayMy grandson who are now 2 and half and 5 love their Baby Einstein dvds so much so that I have had to replace some of them over the years. Though my oldest has graduated to Little Einsteins he still loves to watch the Baby ones. I attribute their knowledge of numbers, colors, etc. to what these Dvds have provided them along with classical music. They especially like the puppet parts interspersed with real life scenes. This keeps their attention. I enjoy sitting with them and watching and helping to reinforce what they are seeing and learning. I have bought other Dvds but they want these.

> 3 dayBaby Monet begins with a zebra puppet painting two muffins which turn into 2 huts of a Monet painting. It was kind of a long introduction. This has mostly live-action of things in nature, not as many toys as most Baby Einsteins videos; which is nice. So, for spring they show time-lapsed photography of plants and flowers, which was kind of neat. Honestly, I thought this video was boring. It was a bit longer then most Baby Einsteins videos. I dont think there was anything with holidays, which is good for those that dont celebrate the holidays (Babys First Imprssions Seasons had a lot of that). Maybe I just cant appreciate certain artists work but I really did not care at all for the Monet paintings in this video. Frankly I thought they were ugly and it makes me wonder how Monet got so famous.

> 3 dayMy children ( 2 1/2 yrs and 9mo) love this DVD. Toward the end,there is a quick little tune and I started dancing with my 2 yr old, now she is always Mommy dance, mommy dance with me. Now, to address the Little Einstein commercial, I agree w/ others, it is absolutely disgusting. My husband and I find it very sad that Disney is trying to advertise to a baby. Its bad enough what they do advertising to toddlers and older, but a baby, please give us a break.
