5 out of 5 stars One of the best Einstein DVD/Videos   December 28, 2005
  4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This is a really great DVD, by far one of the best. The first Einstein movies are classics, but this one is up there with them. My 18 month old daughter can't get enough of this movie and my nearly 5 year old son loves watching it too. My daughter was not saying any words until she watched this show.
This movie shows a LOT of real life vehicles along with toys and names each of them as they are shown.
I did not find the music eerie at all(as I read from a previous review), in fact, it was quite uplifting.
Throughout the movie, Disney shows families together, mom/son; dad/daughter ect doing things together on bikes/cars/trains, ect. It is quite an enjoyable movie to watch.
It is a great addition to the collection.

Once Baby Einstein/Julie Clark and crew sold out to Disney the quality of the movies went down hill. There is way too much animation and less reality in the movies now, with this one being no exception. The first 10 Baby Einstein videos are the best featuring real toys, puppets, kids and animals--without the cartoons and effects that many baby and child videos contain---THAT IS WHAT MADE THEM SO GOOD IN THE BEGINNING. Sell out to the big companies and see what happens to quality--happens with everything these days....


3 out of 5 stars Not as entertainng as the other Baby Einstein's at all...   November 30, 2005

I thought my son would love this one since he loves cars, planes, and trains. But they made this one way too long and he gets bored after about 10 minutes. Now if I put on any other Baby Einstein that we own he is mesmerized for the 25-30 min. it is on. This one is longer than 40 min and is missing the winning formula of the other Baby Einstein's. Hopefully this is not a new trend since the others are all awesome in my book.


4 out of 5 stars are the bells & whistles a bit too much?   November 30, 2005

my son is 18 months old and has just been allowed to start watching the baby einstein videos--he loves neighborhood animals and world animals and asks for them daily (we watch either "ducks!" or "growls!" once a day). after a trip on an airplane over thanksgiving, we decided to get On The Go for him to mix it up a little...

there are indeed good things about this video, but these good things are also encased in bad:

1. lots of different vehicles--probably too many different ones, in fact...do we need both a 'sailBOARD' AND a 'sailBOAT' in the same segment?

2. loads of BRIGHT colors--but this video has more computer images than 'real life' puppets...the opening segment with the raccoon driving the car over the bright green CG road is a bit much and feels like something from an austin powers movie

3. the music in this video has an eerie/music box quality to parts of it--the music that accompanies the spinning wheel (which has a car, a plane, a boat and a train on it) is very mellow and tinkly and then the same tune is repeated at various times throughout the video...yes, it's a classical tune BUT it's a watered down, synthesizer version and that just doesn't cut it.

4. lots of repetition--i.e., the opening sequence features an eye-level shot of a boy riding in a toy car that's pushed by a girl...you see this same footage about 5 minutes later in the 'on the land' segment.

overall, this is a decent dvd (i'm not going to bash it for all of the frontloaded garbage that you have to fast-forward through to get to the real dvd...that's too easy--but suffice it to say it is a pain)--the train segment is great and the vehicles are pretty cool (there are tons of shots of various ones, too)...unlike Neighborhood Animals or World Animals, my son did not want to watch this one straight through--and to me, that's a good thing.



5 out of 5 stars Fantastic toddler entertainment!   November 3, 2005

I am so impressed that Disney could come up with a video that was better than Baby McDonald which WAS my daughter's all time favorite, but she now has a new Baby Einstein that she loves just a little bit more!!! She was literally sitting on the edge of her chair while she watched Baby On the Go while alternately getting up and flying like a plane or make choo-choo noises or singing the verses she knows of Wheels on the Bus. I was surprised by how much she interacted versus some of the kid's shows were she just glazes over. So, not only is this entertaining, it is a great learning tool.

We have been incredibly impressed with the recent Baby Einstein videos that have come out in the past couple of years, and only let our daughter watch television once or twice a week. That said, the only thing she ever wants to watch is Baby McDonald, Baby Galileo, Baby Noah and now, Baby On the Go. I would recommend this to any and all moms, and in fact just bought two more as gifts. Well done, Disney!
