Baby Einstein - Language Nursery [DVD]

My child received this DVD as a Christmas gift, and I was immediately excited. Friends had raved about the series, referring to them as baby crack for the way their children have become addicted. I looked forward to having a few minutes to shower or clean the house...but didnt get that benefit. Others have accurately described its contents, so I wont belabor it. Let it suffice to say that it was not captivating for my child (then four months, now ten) then or now. The Baby Mozart CD (yes, just the music) is far more effective.

As a mother of a 4 month old baby, I think I expected more. I am bilingual and have knowledge of two more language. I bought the Language Nursery with the expectation that my baby could learn one or two things in another language. But when I saw it; my surprise was that the spanish alphabet (which is my mother tounge) is incorrect. It has two letters that have disappear of the modern alphabet. I also think the figures do not relate to the poems, that might be kind of confusing, but it entertains my baby.

This is not the quality of the other Baby Einstein movies! Dont waste your money. It didnt keep my infants attention for 2 seconds. They use the same toys the others use, but with voices instead of music. It was putting me to sleep where the other Baby Einstein videos energize you!

I was excited to expose my baby to baby einstein so I tried this video first. While the images got my babys attention for the whole 30 minutes, I was concerned about the language confusion. Not only the language and images are sometimes not related, but I think that mixing so many languages can be confusing for a baby whos trying to figure out language. Ill try baby mozart and see how my baby responds to it.

Wonderful photography, as always, but it would be nice if they had included a word-for-word translation booklet so parents could translate.

My 9 month old baby is not impress with this video, she is not aware of what they are talking about because when the video is mentioning the numbers or the alphabet it does not show anything related to it and it does not says the language that is used in every episode.

FIRST OF ALL I WOULD LIKE TO SAY I ORDERED THIS DVD BACK IN NOVEMBER OF 09 AND I BARLEY RECIEVED IT THE LAST WEEK OF JANUARY 10!!!!! THAN SECOND OF ALL ITS NOT EVEN THE RIGHT DVD I ORDERED!!!!! I ASKED FOR BABY EINSTIEN LULLABY TIME AND I GOT THIS LANGUAGE NURSERY ONE!!!REALLY??? SOUNDS LIKE TO ME, THEY JUST GAVE ME WHAT EVER THEY HAD AND TOOK THEIR PRECIOUS TIME!!!! ANYONE ELSE LOOKING INTO BUYING FROM THEM......DONT!!!!!!

I recieved this DVD as a gift from a friend of mine who is a pre-school teacher who claimed this was one of the best videos for young children around. I happen to highly disagree. The age range on this DVD is 1-18 months, however when putting it on my for child at a young age he would cry. I agree with another reviewer when they said it speaks other lanuages but there are no sub titles to go along with it. I would like to know what at least my child it being taught. I was very disapointed with this baby einstein video, i wish i had returned it when i had the chance for it now just sits in a box.

My daughter is just 2 months old and already has her eyes glued to the screen while this movie is on. It bothers me that I have no clue what theyre saying while the movie is playing in other languages but I know my little one is being exposed to other languages and I guess thats what really matters, right? I am anticipating as she grows older she will love it even more, once she recognizes the toys and other assorted items shown during the theater part of the movie. I would recommend this to everyone, it is worth the money.

My son has LOVED this DVD since he was one month old and now he is 18 months. At such a young age, babies are captivated by certain images and sounds, and this DVD has it all. I dont feel it deserves the bad reviews parents give. If babies could vote they would give it a 5 star all the way!!
