Baby Einstein

that was cute lol.

Funny!

wow this is dumb

[feezals]

There is a lot more studies around that einstein is good for babies. Anything in over load can be harmful. If a child only read all day then that could be bad if they got no sun and excerise. That doesn't mean kids can read !!!

[mkandak]

Whatever- I doubt this video was made to start a controversy... they just probably figured out tv works in the middle of the night when he wont stop crying and had fun with it!

I am sure they are not promoting over exposure to tv in kids... they just were probably making light of the sleep deprivation.

I read this study that proves that Baby Einstein really messes up kids' long term cognitive development. It might not show up in early years, but it certainly does later on. Forget "reading level" and all those stupid school measures - they are worthless. I mean REAL intelligence (social & cognitive) - the type that makes you a LEADER, an ACHIEVER rather than a dumb passive consumer.

Anyone who thinks TV can educate babies is out of their tiny little minds - shame for their kids though LOL!

[lauradiazt]

yup. this REALLY works! and the guy who says that this is stupid i guess it´s understood that doesn´t have any kids...

[Torboar]

[ilovehoser]

My daughter watched these videos from 2months on and shes in 2nd grade and shes on a 5th grade reading level and gets straight A's.

That study is bull!

What Isabella2215 said is incomplete. the study found that the OVER Exposure of products like Baby Einstein cause a delay in speach, not just exposure.

[isabella2215]

Kind of funny, but I hope they don't really let their baby watch TV given the research by pediatricians showing how harmful it is to baby's mental development.

[brenguncarrier]

Just how harmful is it Isabella2215? Does it turn babies in to retards? There is more to making it in this life than how fast your mental development progresses. Just because one baby is slower, it doesn't mean they won't catch up or overtake another baby. They all progress at different rates, they all have different potential.

You really need to be able to review and analyse all the research literature before you can make such sweeping conclusions. Study results alone cannot be taken as gospel. They often contradict each other, they may be biased, they may have been carried out inadequately, on a small sample size or under crappy test conditions. There may be a study done someday that shows how beneficial these videos are, but you shouldn't pick and choose results to suit your views.
