Baby Einstein Sneak Peek & Baby Mozart DVD Giveaway
November 18, 2008 by Kimberly · 12 Comments
On Friday, I went to a Baby Einstein Mom Blogger Brunch. It was fun to discuss the brand (which is celebrating their 10th anniversary) with Michelle and Matt from their marketing team as well as catch up with Amy my “mom blogger event friend”. (I also snagged a fun giveaway item for a lucky Mom in the City member.)
Like many moms, I was already award of Baby Einstein. I already like their books and music CDs. I was never a big baby DVD fan though, so I had some questions about that. Their answers were helpful. They emphasized that the DVDs aren’t designed to just sit the babies in front of them as “babysitters”. Rather, they were created to give parents another way to interact with their babies by playing and experiencing the DVD together. I went away thinking that when used correctly, the DVDs are a great idea. I also learned that Baby Einstein offered many more products than I had previously thought including toys and a feeding line. Lastly, we received a “sneak preview” of Baby Einstein’s World Music DVD which will be coming out in 2009. It’s the first time that they are moving out of their “classical music” products in order to expose kids to the sights and sounds of a variety of cultures. Living in NYC, exposing my kids to a variety of cultures is easy, but that’s not the case everywhere. So, I’m excited about this upcoming line.
I walked (well ran – I needed to get my son to preschool!) away from the lunch feeling great about this brand. Not only will I continue to buy products from this company for my kids, but also for children of friends. Speaking (well, writing) about gifts…they have some fun holiday gift ideas on their site which you can find here. Standouts include: the Busy Bellies ($5.99); the Count & Compose Piano ($16.99) and the item that we’re giving away – the 10th Anniversary Special Edition Baby Mozart DVD ($19.99)!
Mom in the City newsletter subscribers can enter to win the DVD by leaving their name in the “Comments” section and their favorite Baby Einstein product below or by sending an email to contests@mominthecity.com with “Mozart” and the answer in the Subject line by December 15th (just in time for holiday gifting!).
Takealong Tunes has been a lifesaver MANY times. It calms my 15 month old at the pediatrician’s office and on long car trips. We always get positive comments on it, too. We’ve had it for almost 10 months now. I also like the Baby Galileo and Baby Newton videos. Baby Newton helped my 6 year old learn her shapes when she was only 2. We always sang the shapes song together, “I know my shapes, oh yes I do!” Thanks!
Great!
Thanks.
I think my son would love the Baby Neptune Ocean Adventure.
My favorite Baby Einstein product ever since my son was little was the Baby Neptune Ocean Adventure. He just adored it! Thanks for a great giveaway
My son just loves dolphin and fish, Baby Neptune Ocean Adventure.
I love them all!!! I really like the Takealong Tunes. Great learning toy! I also am impressed by the Baby Neptune Ocean Adventure. I think it would fascinate her.
Thank you for offering.
My favorite would be Baby Noah, but that would be because that is the only one I ever saw.
My son’s favorite Baby Einstein is his Musical Rocking Chair. It allows you to connect your mp3 player or Ipod to it so he can enjoy the music as he rocks in the rocker. I really loved this item as it also comes with a music box of its own pre-recorded with Mozart. We have so many Baby Einstein products and he loves the Baby Mozart.
We love our Baby Einstein blocks. Colt is almost a year and they are his favorite toy.
we have a set if dvds, our favorites being Baby MacDonald™ – A Day on the Farm and Baby Galileo™ – Discovering the Sky, as well as some stuffed toys, from their website i’m interested in the Lullaby Classics CD.
Baby Neptune Ocean Adventure or the Musical Rocking Chair
i love the Baby Noah™ – Animal Expedition
