We LOVE all four of the classical baby!

I rented one of these from the video store and my son loved it (he was 2) so much I bought the dance and art ones. Which then lead to my sons new love of art such as stary night and other paintings they show. Since watching baby dance show, he now loves the nutcracker as well. I would say the only down side is the baby speaks "in baby talk" which i don't think is good for children, but otherwise these are lovely videos.

We also just got the poety and muisc one for christmas and they love those as well I love how they (my son now 3.5 and daughter 2) get up and dance to the muisc on all of them.

My 2 year old loves this DVD. The original songs are sweet and clever, and the classic nursery rhymes are presented so well. The "characters" are very likable and the words really do integrate with the speaking and singing. Even I (mom) am fascinated by the precise timing of the words on the screen with the audio. We don't get tired of the DVD (even mom and dad) and whenever my daughter sees a picture of Julian and Isabel she gets really excited and starts singing. It helps that her name is Isabel, too!

I have given this as a gift a few times and it is always a favorite. I'm looking forward to Volume Two!

I just wanted to share that we own Baby Mozart, Baby Neptune, and Baby Van Gogh and love them all.  Our daughter is 6 months old and enjoys them so much.  Of the three, I would have to recommend Baby Van Gogh over the other two.  There seems to be less "down time" for this one.  In other words, our daughter is more mesmerized through and through with Baby Van Gogh.  The other two are great as well, but Baby Mozart seems to have a few very slow spots that has my daughter losing attention and whimpering.  And Baby Neptune has more live scenery shots which she doesn't care for yet.  So, my vote has to go to Baby Van Gogh for best Einstein video.  At least so far...

This has classic hand-plays for baby, details on how to play them, and then the CD with the music.  We have a 3 row vehicle.  The older kids are in the way back facing forward, the younger kids are in the middle rear-facing.  That means they're looking at eachother.  When this comes on, the older kids start doing the finger plays, and the babies are absolutely entertained and happy.  Even without the older kids playing though, the younger kids seem to relax with the friendly voices and the fun music.  This really is geared to those preschool age and younger.

Baroque is such a wide and wonderful musical discovery for us modern types.  It is soothing and quieting to the soul, and in this case for the body as well.
Whether used as lullaby inducing or just listening pleasure and relaxation, this is nice collection.  Including wide array of instruments: strings, flute, panpipes, oboe, flute, harp, guitar, recorder, piano, and voice --- this is truly enjoyable.
There is wide array of baroque composers as well --- Rephighi, Vivaldi, Bach, Albinoini, Telemann, and more.
Great price, great variety, great addition to your CD collection.

I got these as a gift and love them. Great to put on for babies, toddlers and even my preschooler enjoys them. Enjoyable music and visuals for me too! As babies, my girls loved to bob up and down to the music and watch the visuals. As a toddler and preschooler, they are inspired to dance, play music and even draw. We have a good time watching together (and dancing too). It's also nice background music. There is an option to have the names, authors, and other information displayed so I get to refresh learn about the classics in music and art.

I order Classical Baby: The Dance Show for every new baby among our friends and family. I send it to parents and also to grandparents to have on hand. Our granddaughter has adored it and so do we. It's wonderfully creative; the music and dance charming, colorful, and great fun.

My brother wanted to get our 4 year old niece a CD with Peter & the Wolf, & I said I'm sure they have it on Amazon! I found this one with 3 different musical selections & thought it was good choice per reviews. My brother listened to it before giving it as Christmas present to make sure it was what he expected, & it was and more! Turns out, one of the other musical pieces on there was from a ballet that they had gone to together, so that was an added bonus! We wanted her to have something cultural, classic, and educational, & this fit the bill. Our sister (her mother) loved the choice, & my niece even recognized the music from the ballet on there. They couldn't be happier with the choice, & my niece is very bright & listens to it a lot, and it's something that is agreeable & not too "kidsy" or annoying like some children's music can be. Family is Very happy with selection!

The Piano Guys never cease to amaze me!!  I have been listening to, and LOVING , their music for over 4 years.  This album blends old favorites with several newer songs and even includes some never released songs!  Thank you again for some of the best classical, but not classical music :), music out there!!  Kept up the good work!  Blessings upon you all!

I purchased this CD to play for my growing belly, but when it arrived and I allowed my 4 year old to play it in her CD player, she loved it so much and asked to keep it to play it at night to help her sleep. I love this intended use of this CD, but the actual use I have been getting out of it has made it so much more valuable in my home and in my family's life. Mozart is one of my favorite composers to listen to on various occasions, but not a composer I would choose on my ipod in my car, so the fact my toddler loves the compilation of chosen songs on the CD is amazing and cannot be replaced with simple explanations of historical classical music. Love this CD!!!

The baby toy industry has certainly changed since my firstborn back in 1972. Now I enjoy shopping for Grandchildren and the newest is three months old and the product of musician parents. So obviously while we introduce all sorts of ways to explore his world, music is a part of it. I am very impressed with this piano. I wanted something that he could bat at while he sits on my lap at the table. Of course he'll be able to use it when he sits alone, or in a high-chair, but we aren't at that stage yet. I LOVE the soft keys and the general size of the toy. Not too bulky, clumsy or big. Just right.  The three different languages is also a huge plus for this family! Of course his dad had to "play" with it first and immediately plunked out some Beethoven. I really can't say enough good things about this item and I'll be exploring Baby Einstein for more gems. Meanwhile, whether your baby is musical or not, THIS is a very versatile toy. Lots of ways to explore, color, sights, lights, sounds and counting and language. Pretty cool for a small package. Get it, you won't be disappointed.

We love this CD! Pretty Little Baby, Little Bird, and Little Liza Jane have become favorite songs for my 3 month old. Elizabeth Mitchell does a great job of pulling together songs from the American tradition and beyond for this collection, lending her sweet, folksy voice to some of the oldest and best known children's songs.

I love to hear her husband and daughter singing with her on some of the songs, too. It's nice to hear someone who doesn't seem to be putting on a big, keyed-up show to entertain the little ones. She's just having fun and enjoying herself singing, and you and your baby will, too, when you listen.

Dr. Mac and Friends music will have little ones and adults singing along with each and every tune. I love the specialty themed albums as they gently teach our young ones and remind us grown ups of essential life lessons! Truly....whether you are an Auntie/Uncle, Parent, Sibling, Educator, or just a great kid you are going to want to have a copy of all of these tunes in your car and at home. I also have to mention the workbooks that are available....these are just as terrific. Dr. Mac and Friends earns a solid 5 stars from me!

This is a great CD!  It is my favorite volume in the series.  While all the songs are good, some are exceptional.  My favorite is the "Listen and Move" song.  It is the perfect action song for older toddlers and preschoolers.  It is cued with directions to move in ways which reflect the musical accompainment.  It is very aerobic and so much fun!  Perfect for getting excess energy expended in a constructive way on days when children cannot go outside.  Other favorites on this CD are "The Boogie Walk" and "The Freeze."  I have used "The Freeze" as a review game with elementary aged children.  I paused the CD during each "freeze break" in the music and had one or more children answer a question or recite a Bible verse. Then I turned the music back on for the children to move to until the next break. FUN! FUN! FUN!

This has to be one of my favorite (if not my favorite) purchase when we had our first baby.  From the day we brought him home from the hospital, we played this CD for him to sleep.  It is so beautifully done.  It's a CD that we don't mind hearing through the monitor over and over.  With Amazon's streaming option, we even use it in the car to calm him if he's upset.  He is now 18-19 months old and it's still a CD that melts my heart (and we play every day).
