DVD Reviews of Disney's Little Einsteins - Mission Celebration

DVD Review: Titles of the musical pieces please
Summary: 5 Stars

My 3 1/2-year-old son and I enjoy these Little Einstein DVDs a lot. Maybe for different reasons. I like to see how they work the art into the story, he likes to go pat,pat,pat,pat ... blast off! Also, I am learning more about music, and I think he is too, kind of indirectly. I downloaded the pieces from Instrument Fairies (Puppet March, etc.) and played them on the car stereo ... and he made the connection ... he shouted Little Einsteins! I like how they select very distinctive pieces.

In more recent Little Einsteins they have the titles of the pieces written next to the composers name. In this DVD, the characters say the names of the pieces ... and I can't understand what the character is saying for the Bizet piece - Suite L ... No. 2

Can anyone tell me the name of that piece?

The question of character stereotyping is interesting, and I am sometimes shocked by how much of that one sees in children's "educational" entertainment (especially the helpless girls) ... but I have to disagree about Quincy being the "funny musician." He plays the violin, and that really means a lot, being the most difficult musical instrument to play. If he's funny, I guess he's also really talented. I didn't realize June was Asian ... if I think about it, I guess I thought she might be Italian or Arab American.

Anyway, if anyone can help me out with the title of that Bizet piece, I'd much appreciate it!

DVD Review: Love those Little Einsteins!
Summary: 5 Stars

Great videos on this dvd, my 3-year old loves it and I don't mind watching it with him over and over and over.

DVD Review: Great episodes
Summary: 4 Stars

My 15 month old loves this DVD because it has two of her favorite episodes. She loves to "conduct" along with Leo. I love the clever way these tapes teach about music and problem solving.

DVD Review: would've given this 5 stars except for one thing...
Summary: 3 Stars

My 2 year old loves this. She grew out of Baby Einstein and we bought her a few Little Einstein ones. She watches them all the time. We had to try to limit her DVD time everyday so that she has other things to do. But of all the DVD's this is quite educational (even for me as an adult!). The characters asked questions to viewers, guided them to imitate gestures and noises. I also like the real images in addition to cartoon images. For example, they flew over the real cities such as Venice or Seattle, and showed real animals like penguins.

My only complaint, and it's a big one, is that the kids are off tune. Annie (the blonde) is seriously off tune. It really bothers me when they sang together (that feeling is similar to someone who scratched a blackboard with fingernails). Complete dissonance in certain instances. At first I thought it was the composer of the tune, or believed it could just be my own problem and they were just singing with normal kids voice. But later confirmed with others that they were, in fact, out of tune. If they're trying to set examples for kids and teach them various things from fine arts to classical music to science, why not demonstrate by singing the tunes correctly?

DVD Review: Daughter loves this....
Summary: 5 Stars

My 3 year old is a HUGE fan of the Little Einsteins. I picked up this DVD from my local library and my daughter watches it everyday. All the scenes are age appropriate for her and she loves the interaction with the chararcters. This would be a great purchase for preschoolers.

Fine artwork, classical music, and destinations around the world are the order of the day for the Little Einsteins, a group of musically-minded children who travel the world in their trusty rocket ship looking for adventure. Each of these three CGI animated adventures encourages viewers ages 2 to 7 to get involved by clapping along and promotes the development of careful listening skills and an understanding of basic musical terminology. In "The Birthday Machine," June, Leo, Quincy, Annie, and Rocket can't wait to construct a birthday machine, but their quest for parts takes them deep within Michelangelo Buonarroti's painting "The Laurentian Library" and then on a gondola ride through the canals of Venice where they chase and order specific melodic fragments from Johann Sebastian Bach's "Brandenberg Concerto Number 5." In "Go West Young Train," the group journeys to the American Wild West where they experience the art of Navajo basketry and the music of Georges Bizet while helping Little Red Train recover a bag of party supplies stolen by Big Jet. Finally, the group journeys around the globe from Seattle, Washington to the tropical rainforest of Henri Rousseau's "The Merry Jesters" and the ice floes of Antarctica in "The Birthday Balloons." Along the way, they pick out melodic fragments from Mozart's "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" and recapture a handful of runaway balloons. The DVD bonus feature "You've Got a Mission" gives viewers a chance to pilot Rocket on their own mission to gather party goods. --Tami Horiuchi
