Classical Baby: The Dance Show (DVD)

I had boy/girl twins in January of 2012. When the babies were as young as 3 months old, we began searching for videos that our babies would enjoy and ran across this series on HBO. Somewhat similar to the concept of Baby Einstein or Baby Mozart, these captured our babies' attention far longer and they still watch these nightly at 18 months old. Once the opening intro song starts, both babies would stop whatever they were doing and cuddle up with us to watch their favorite little baby conductor! Worried that we might accidentally erase these from our DVR cable box, I got online and ordered them right away. This is one of my TOP FIVE favorite things that I have purchased for the babies. Each time we turn it on to calm a crying child or prepare for bed, we are amazed and how much they still love, enjoy and are still very interested in this video after seeing it at least 200 times.....not exaggerating...probably closer to 300 times!I have to say that my babies absolutely love this video along with the Classical Baby Music and Classical Baby Art videos. The music in all three videos is, well, classical and the videos that play along are both colorful and entertaining. I can't imagine what our life would be like had we not found these and would highly recommend them to others in hopes that their babies love them as much as mine have and still do!

My son has adored all three, music/dance and art. We try not to watch too much of anything with him, but the truth is, he hasn't really been interested in anything else on the TV, while these hold him spellbound (which is nice when he needs to wind down before a nap or I have to make dinner). We never watch more than one of these a day and put them on a rotation.It is true that there are certain segments that lose him (like the Ugly Duckling segment on the dance video), and some segments he had to grow to like, but on the whole, this is a total hit.For us, as adults, its wonderful that we can enjoy this music as well, and many of the animated sequences are top-notch, while a few are brilliant.

My son's reaction to this dvd really surprised me! When I turned it on, I did not think that he would be impressed with the dvd's graphics or content. To the contrary, he sat still and watched the dvd at least four times, back to back! He is typically a VERY active little boy and is very selective about what he wants to watch. But he loved watching the babies conduct and dance! I think I'll play the video again closer to bedtime to see if it helps calm him down! I just ordered the art and music dvds. I can't wait to see his reaction to those!!

serves purpose - completes my set

My children (5 and 2 years old) would always request for this to be played when I allow them screen time. It's short enough that I don't feel bad that they are watching instead of playing a musical instrument. That said, this show has heightened their awareness and appreciation for music. My 5-year-old is playing the violin and doing classical ballet. My 2-year-old is expressing interest in playing the cello. It delights me whenever they are able to identify the music and composer.

First, I need to say that I am a classical music listener that why I bough this DVD for my baby. The music is great, I love it I don't think my kid do however. All of them sounds too ... monotonous for kids. My daughter really enjoys first few pieces but after that she starts to turn away playing something else because the music being monotonous and kinda slow that make her pay not as much attention as beginning. It'll be better if the music tone & speed are changed piece after piece that will for sure draw kids into it. I rate it 3.5 stars.

The videos in this series had a permanent spot on our DVR, back when we still had one. Since we've cut the cord, so to speak, I'm thrilled to find this video for sale. My daughter is 8 and still enjoys watching this and talking about which one was her favorite from when she was "little". I like that this series exposes kids to lots of different things. There have been many times when my daughter recognizes a piece of classical music and remembers which cartoon short it was shown with.

My children loved all of the Baby Classical. They would sit in front of the TV from infants & be glued to it. It is also pleasant to listen to while you try to get somethings done while they are preoccupied. Much better than listening to Dora or Barney. I would rather get Classical Baby stuck in my head for the day than one of those. They are now 5 & & YO and if I turn it on, they still sit & watch it.

The best videos for children! My son loves classic music.

Had two copies years ago when my boys were little. So glad I could still get a copy for the latest family member!

Ho comprato questo film, ma arriva dall' USA e non funziona con il mio DVD player, mi chiede di cambiare il dispositivo.....

Bought for my grandson. He loves it.
