Customer Reviews

Amazing & Awesome!
As usual, my kids LOVE this latest Brainy Baby product. It has terrific songs, darling kids, and best of all, it actually teaches them about Music! The "rhythm" example with kids walking, running, skipping, etc. to different beats is so cute - my 2 yr old always jumps up & down and laughs out loud! And the surprisingly beautiful sounds of a barbershop quartet (teaching about harmony, tempo, etc.) literally make my kids stop what ever they're doing and listen in fascination.
I highly recommend it - your child will love it, too!

A bit advanced for a 2yr old
My 2.5yr old son owns almost all of the Brainy Baby DVDs (he's got 10 of them) so when I saw this DVD and read the positive reviews I bought it and Brainy Baby Art. When we received it I sat my son down and watched it with him. He just was NOT interested in this video. After a few minutes he went off and started playing with his toys. At 2 he's not interested in knowing wind instruments, string instruments, quartets, harmony, etc. My son loves music and he loves making music on his keyboard and he owns alot of musical instruments he loves playing. This video seemed a bit to advanced to be understood by a 2 or 3yr old unless they're gifted. I'm going to put this video up and try it when my son's 3.5 or 4yrs old. If you've got a 2yr old who's interested in music I'd suggest "Blue's Big Musical" wich is more toddler friendly. He LOVES that DVD.

Best Brainy Baby Video
My daughter has been watching this DVD since she was 18 months old. She is now 3 and still asks for it every now and again. The original songs created for the DVD are really good (I cannot stand them myself but my daughter loves, loves, loves them, and that's what it's all about, right?) Anyway, don't worry about your baby not "getting" it. Sure they talk about advanced concepts like pitch and tempo, but they make it very interesting. It is also a good introduction to the different musical instruments and various types of music (rock, blues, etc.)
