From the brilliant collection of Baby Einstein comes Baby Einstein Mozart, which is an interactive video designed for children from1 month to 3 years old. As the name suggests, the video consisting of scenes of bright colors, choreographed toys, and other colorful images, is set to some of the most popular works of Mozart. Studies have proven that listening to classical and musical pieces such as Mozart help stimulate brain development.
In Baby Einstein Mozart, brain development is not only stimulated through music, but through the visuals as well. The visuals in the video consist of various toys and things such as puppets, candles, mobiles, food, and metronomes. The movement of the visuals is intentionally set in time with the music and sound effects so as to capture the attention of the child better. There is no storyline in Baby Einstein Mozart, so parents are free to name the objects, colors, or movement to their child while watching. Without words in the video, parent interaction is very much encouraged for even more brain development stimulation. The combination of Mozart’s music, natural and whimsical sound effects is especially designed to encourage more stimulation as well.
Research has shown that music, especially classical music, affects stimulation of brain development. The music specifically of Mozart has been shown to affect and improve spatial reasoning in very young children. Other benefits of listening to Mozart’s music at a young age include improvement in leadership skills and confidence. All these are enhanced just by listening to Mozart’s works.
Baby Einstein Mozart is the second video from the Baby Einstein Company, a company that produces developmental videos for children which cater to early brain development through stimulation via visuals and music. The first from the collection of videos is called Baby Einstein, which is quite similar to Baby Einstein Mozart as well. One of the differences is that there is an audio track of different mothers speaking and singing in 7 languages. There is still accompanying music and natural and whimsical sound effects as well. The third in the collection is called Baby Bach, which is even more similar to Baby Einstein Mozart, with the exception being the music played is by another musical genius, Bach. Aside from the DVD, there is also an audio CD and cassette of music from Baby Einstein Mozart. These can be used as background music for children while they are doing other activities. While the music is being played in the background, children’s memory is also enhanced.
Baby Einstein Mozart runs for 28 minutes, and its content is enough to hold children’s attention for the entire duration of the video. Children’s senses are stimulated well enough that they dance around to the music, name the objects that come on the screen, and laugh at the whimsical sound effects. These effects are very different from the usual vacant or blank looks that children give when watching other baby videos.
With Baby Einstein Mozart, your children not only get to have fun with watching and listening to the captivating visuals and music, but their brain development is also very much stimulated.
