hi my gal is 6 mths 2 wks now. not sure which to let her watch.. actually wanted to buy baby einstein for her but saw some feedback tat it should not be for children under age 1 so give up the thought, n now, trying to find other for her to watch n learn.. or children at this age doesnt really need this dvd thingy ?? please advise. thkscan i know whats yr gal age ? when my kids ard 1-2, they like to watch tele-tubies, barney, and i also let them watch brainy baby(teach them 123, abc - very effetvive) and now 4-6, they like to watch hi-5 sing and dance together in front of TV. Dora also their favourate. my 2 kids is gals may be boy interest is different.
Bob builder - not really like, sometimes only
Barney - is their all time favourate (since age 1 already watching till now)
sesame street - look like they not so interested
leapfrog - they not really like, dunno why
Baby Can read - never try before - any feedback from mummies on this DVD ?
Winktolean - still yet to judge - any feedback from mummies on this ? bought animal series, they felt bored on it
any other good DVD can be recomend to me too ?
oh.. so mean now they actually dun nedd to watch any of this dvd la.. let them learn some flash card can already??thru forum, they recom baby can read DVD, but see some negative feedback on it. I plan to buy the Monki learn monki do DVD for my 3rd baby, 2mths only now. But I think this DVD look like not available locally, still searching on it.
I have one set of Tweedle Wink under www.rightbrainkids.com - age 0-6 , not bad, my kids like to watch it.
Another is BABY IQ by Brainy Baby , also quite good, judge from my 2 gals response .. they like to watch
As for baby in few mths old, ppl recom to let them learn flash cards, are u a working mother ?
hks.. in tat case, i let her play with the flash card first then.. after she turn 1 then i let her watch those dvd ....at 6mth old, i think YourBabyCanRead and Brainy Baby is more suitable for ur baby. Ds is 19mth and he is now watching YBCR, Brainy Baby, Leapfrog. We only start letting him watch Leapfrog aft he turned 1. YBCR is like flashcards, suitable for babies like ds who will snatch the flashcards away when parents using the cards to teach.
actu at 1st we tot YBCR doesnt really teach ds cos whenever we ask him, he didnt show us anything he 'learnt' from the DVD until one fine day, he suddenly follow! when the dvd show the word "NO", and before tht dvd says the word "NO", he is alrdy shaking his head. and he can recognise the word Ball, Arms up, Head etc.. Cause whenever it shows these words (and BEFORE they say the words out), he can say or point out where is he head and do the 'arms up' sign by lifting his arms high up. All I can say is, it works, but it takes time for ds to absorb, or maybe he had learnt all these long ago thru the dvd but not willing to show us cos he used to only do all these when he tot we were not ard and the more we ask him to do, the more he dont wanna do -.-" hahaha!HI, apollo, is the YBCR effective ?
Cutiesiah, where are u now ? not in Singapore ? Just share some of my research recently for my plan on my 3rd, i think all this can only be done by a non working mother.

I read that it's more advisable not to let babies below 2 to watch TV but I started letting my daughter watch those slow paced educational DVD when she was almost 18 months old.
Yah kids learn fastest before 4 but I guess it's better to stimulate their brain development by reading to them and interacting/communicating with them.Cos harmfull to eye or ??
I though is the when younger nw teach them abit then slowly day by day they will understand ^^
