 Not as good as the others
I bought this DVD for my nephew because we are big fans of the Baby Einstein products. However, he does not seem to enjoy it nearly as much as some of the others. I'm bilingual so I thought it would be great for him to be exposed to more than one language, but the video just doesn't hold his attention. I would recommend the "On the Go" DVD over any other.
 My kids love this video about Discovering Water
This is a review about Baby Neptune.
I am not sure why so many review for Language Nursery are showing up here but I just wanted to clarify what I was reviewing.
I got this for my son well over two years ago. He loved fish so I thought that this would be fun. He loved it and still does now at the age of three. My 1 yr old loves it too. They love the music and the shots of the water. The puppets are entertaining and they love to watch the kids on the video play. They love to sit and watch the aquarium part on the bonus features and it is a great way to calm them down.
I would highly recommend this video especially if your child likes fish and water.
Great Video!
What a wonderful addition to our collection! We have several Baby Einstein DVDs and I can tell when she likes one and when she doesn't. This one is keeper and may even be her favorite right now.
Not the best Baby Einstein DVD
It's okay, but not great-doesn't have the good bonus material a lot of the other BE videos have-
 Disappointing
I purchased this after a good experience with a couple of other Baby E. DVDs which my daughter loved. This particular DVD does not really live up the the standards of our previous purchases. The music is funky and the images and the sound rarely ever correlate. It all feels very random. For example they go through numbers in various languages and the images are just random patterns that have nothing to do with the numbers. Plus the music is composed of funky zen tunes you would hear in a spa which just reinforce the weirdness of the whole thing. It's like they are trying to hypnotize the kids or something.
Yes I understand the purpose of the DVD is to expose kids to various languages but it makes little sense to NOT correlate the images to words. It's a simple thing. The fact is exposing kids to just sounds from TV sources is not a good learning tool. You need to reinforce the visual aspects because that is TV's prime strength. Any way, I suggest staying away from this disc and buying something else in the series.
