Baby Einstein videos - am I the only one
that thinks they are way overrated? 
I just bought two new ones. I had the Baby Neptune and Jake didn't care for it so I figured I'd try out some others, maybe that particular one was just not his thing. But he doesn't care for Baby Mozart either. I gotta say, I watched them and I don't blame him for being bored. 
He LOVES the Lots to Learn video but the newer ones aren't out yet. The Baby Van Gogh is going back to the store. What does your baby like besides Baby Einstein?

Re: Baby Einstein videos - am I the only one
Ryan likes basically anything on Noggin. He does however love Baby Einstein also. Anything that has bright colors and movement keeps his attention.

Re: Baby Einstein videos - am I the only one
Baby Crack went over huge with at our house. Besides using it to entertain them so I can take a shower, we used to put it on in the mornings if they were wide awake but we needed more sleep. They also liked Brainy Baby, Barney (gasp!)and almost anything on Noggin.

Re: Baby Einstein videos - am I the only one
Gianna never took interest in Baby Einstein. A friend lent us a bag of them, so I was lucky not to waste the $$. She has always loved Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Friends. The colors are so vivid and everyone is always laughing and having fun on the show. Now that she's older, I appreciate that they send a nice message about being good to oneanother. She LOVES Jack's Big Music Show and Sesame Street also.

I've seen these around and wondered how they are....same concept?
Alyson just watched Sesame Street the other day for the first time and was entranced.
Yesterday we watched Bear in the Big Blue House and she was talking back to them!

Re: Baby Einstein videos - am I the only one
I have the entire 15-DVD set and only 3 are open..... They were not used here at all, Andrew didn't care for them.... He was never a big TV/video watcher, so I saved them and we'll see how baby #2 does.

Re: Baby Einstein videos - am I the only one
John never took to them. He loves the Elmo's World DVD and most recently the Backyardigans. He may watch Blues Clues from time to time, and just starting (ugh) Barney.

Re: Baby Einstein videos - am I the only one
Ugh, I hated them. We only have baby mozart and I think it is the dumbest thing in the world. I could put on mozart and roll a ball around the house for the same effect. Emily never liked it either. Now, at almost 22 months, she likes Sesame Street and the Wiggles, and that is it.

Re: Baby Einstein videos - am I the only one
Baby Einstein is a savior in my household. It is the only way to get Kevin to nap (besides car rides or walks in his stroller). I tend to fall asleep before him some days!
He pretty much loves them all - only certain ones he naps to (neptune, Van gogh, beethoven) and others are more for entertaining (animals, old macdonald)......he really doesn't watch any other tv - he can't be bothered.

Thank you!! I'm glad I'm not the only one. It's just that the Lots to Learn seem way more educational to me and Jake is way more into those so I'm looking for something similar. L2L is the baby crack for him...the other ones he's completely bored.
Melissa (MelTodd) - are the Baby Genius the same style as the Baby Einstein? Is it just flashing pictures and stuffed animals moving around back and forth?
The Sesame Street is sounding good too, I'll have to try those.

Re: Baby Einstein videos - am I the only one
Baby Genius, it takes them on little journeys, like to the aquarium, the beach, the park, the zoo, Animal adventures, Four seasons, mozart and friends, Nursery rhymes. There is no flashing pictures, but I never saw baby Einstein to compair it to. Its like a mini movie for them, its cute. It keeps Julia's attention so thats good for me!

Re: Baby Einstein videos - am I the only one
They can only capture Christopher's attention for minutes, if that. Then again, he seems to get bored very easily....lucky me
