Before you reach for the remote....
Television/video/DVD watching for children under the age of 3 isn't really a great idea. Developmentally, these kids are still trying to figure out how the real world works, nor do many of them have much interest in screen images until we plop them down and teach them how to watch and teach them that this is a valuable experience. In no time they will be watching televised crap for the rest of their lives. Why start them first thing? Think about it - what infant needs to passively watch a TV screen, when he'd have just as much fun and learn a lot more by playing with an ice cube or something real? Films like "Baby Mozart" may be well-intended but they're also out to make a buck, cleverly playing on rumors about the so-called "Mozart Effect," that listening to classical music will make babies smarter. (This idea was debunked by science years ago, but word hasn't reached many of us.)For more information about making choices about your child's viewing, I strongly recommend the fine book "Consuming Kids" by Susan Linn.
A must have
Never in a million years have i thought that a video would keep a 4 month old occupied. Until i recived this video as a gift. It is the best,.. sights, sounds, and even the music is soothing for your baby and even moms...
Our Baby Loves This Video....here's why!
We were a little skeptical, at first, when we decided to put our 6 month old in front of this video. Family members had told us that he'd "love" it and it would really keep his attention. "He's only 6 months old", we thought! He doesn't really "love" anything, does he?
We, propped him up in his play seat and turned the VCR on. After 3-4 minutes of the boring FBI warnings and preliminary credits, the show begins. Music, colors, shapes, toys and hand-puppets are the stars of the show.
At first, our little guy simply stared....probably because the color schemes and the music caught his attention. But within the first 10 minutes it was clear that he was "drawn" into the show. He'd drop his current toys to direct 100% attention to the action on the screen. My wife and I enjoyed his reactions to the characters and toys as much as he enjoyed watching them.
His favorite part of the show (which usually gets a good giggle) is when the FunDragon comes out, smiling at first, then a big "BLEEEAHHH"! At first our little guy would jump right out of his diaper when the FunDragon reared his cute little tongue! We'd love the surprised look on his face, but his attention never faded. Nowadays, he's grown to know that the FunDragon is not scary, but makes a fun silly sound!
Highly recommended!
