Product Description
A playful introduction to words and sign language -- my street to main street!
-- Exposes babies to words and sign language
-- Presents a fun way for parents and little ones to "go exploring"
As babies turn one year old, they continue to develop their communication skills. Meanwhile, with you as their guide, they also begin to explore the world beyond their front door. Baby's Favorite Places presents them with a playful introduction to 20 words for the names of familiar locations from the market, to the library, to the local park. First, the written word is shown alongside an image of the featured place or object and the word is said aloud. Then, special guest Marlee Matlin demonstrates how to express the word through sign language. Finally, delightful puppet shows and real-world images set to beautiful classical music by Mozart encourage you and your little one to join in the fun. It s a great way to interact with your child on a whole new level while you embark on this adventure of discovery together!

 AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS RECOMMENDS NO TV FOR CHILDREN UNDER 2! January 16, 2008
The name "Baby Einstein" wants to make parents think it's okay for babies to watch this program, but the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no television at all to children under two, maybe because:
(1) - Recent studies have shown that every hour spent watching programs daily such as 'BABY EINSTEIN' or 'BRAINY BABY' translated into 6-8 fewer words in their vocabularies as compared with other children their age (among babies ages 8-16 months).
(2) - For every hour of television a baby watches daily, their chances of acquiring an attention deficit disorder increases by 10%.
(3) - Brain wave activity is slower when watching television than when sleeping in babies.
In summary, three hours every day of watching programs like this day can result in 30% greater chance of ADD and 18-24 fewer vocabulary words!!
 The worst of Baby Einstein December 27, 2007

I have a special needs child who loves most all Baby Einstein videos. He walked away from this one after 1 minute. So did my typical 18 month old. It does very little to engage the children. It's boring, and like the previous mom mentioned...."what baby needs to know the sign for 'bank' and 'salon'?". "Signing Times" videos are much better.

Great for a toddler! April 12, 2007
My son loves this video! My son is almost two and we are a little worried about his speech. I bought this video so that he can put words and things together! It is working out so well. He repeats a lot of the words in the video! I am so happy!
 Not as good as other signing videos January 25, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I've always loved Baby Einstein videos for my kids, so I was thrilled to find a BE signing vid. But this was pretty poorly considered. The words they teach baby to sign are ridiculous. What baby needs to know Salon, or Bank? Babies need useful signs for what's around them. Playground is a word they teach, but it's a complicated two-step sign that a kid would need to be two or older to accomplish. By then, the child would be able to say the word easier! If you're looking for a video to teach babies sign language I strongly recommend looking elsewhere.
