Baby Einstein - Baby Mozart - Music Festival description It's called "the Mozart Effect," the notion that exposing youngsters to the melodies of the maestro can improve verbal ability, spatial intelligence, creativity, and memory. It's a pretty big leap of faith to understand that effect unless you personally see a toddler react to the stimulation. The Baby Einstein folks have a series of tapes (Baby Ein ... review details |

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | safest buy of the series |
| This is the first one we got and 10-month old daughter has been watching this one since she was 2 or 3 months, and still loves it. I'd say either this, or the Baby Monet, is her favorite of the BE DVDs. The "choreography" is spectacular; for instance, during the Turkish march, they show toy penguins (at least I think that's what they are) moving up and down one of those roller-coaster things. No doubt that it's marketing for their toys, but it's enjoyable to watch it anyway, and probably helping to develop her sense of music. When I put that same piece on for the baby (some recording other than the BE DVD) and I imitate the penguins, she laughs. To be sure, the quality of BE DVDs varies from one to another, and just because you like one, doesn't mean you'll like all of them. But if you buy only one of them, this is the one to get.
Notwithstanding the lack of correlation between exposure to baby videos and intelligence (as cited by some other reviewers), a search of the scientific literature does yield some studies published in recent years showing that exposing infants to specific musical styles influences their musical preference later on (for instance, see Cognition. 2000 Oct 16;77(1):B15-23). Obviously, this does not mean that you need BE. My infant hears much more music, including plenty of Mozart, via audio without video, and the BE is just something extra. In spite of the commercial content, I think it is a worthwhile expense. |
