This series absolutely markets itself as educational. How could they say other? Look at the title "EINSTEIN" that implies smart and educational. I am shocked that they aren't educational. I guess Baby Einstein is better than news or violence or soap operas.

MY BABY LOVES "BABY EINSTEIN"
ReplyDeleteI love these DVD's I have the whole set in my own collection that I use for work. I love that you can switch them from english and spanish! All the kids I have taken care of love this series!
ReplyDeleteWell DeShaun,
ReplyDeleteI think the point is television for infants and toddlers is never educational. "Recent research shows that screen time is not educational for babies, and that children under age two should not have any screen time at all."
We have to learn to divert their attention with toys and books and such instead.
