Title: Not up to Baby Einstein Standards
Review: We, and our 18-month old, are big fans of the Baby Einstein series. However, Baby Newton is by far the poorest-quality selection of the bunch. The video aims to teach toddlers shapes, but the stock-footage examples of shapes are downright confusing. For example, the video shows a simple drawing of an oval and then provides as a real-world example an image of a bicycle back-lit by an oval lamp. I had a hard time figuring out that I was supposed to spot the oval shape in the background instead of focusing my attention on the large, circular wheels of the bicycle, and I have a PhD. from Harvard (really -- I swear.)Don't waste you time with this one; spend your hard-earned dollars on any of the other fine selections in the series. Might I suggest Baby Beethoven, World Animals (my son's favorite), or Baby Shakespeare.
