Baby Neptune DVD by Baby Einstein


Following our water theme this week we watched the Baby Einstein Baby Neptune DVD this morning.

This one isn't a free online resource, but I think it's great value for money. We bought the Baby Einstein box set of DVDs on recommendation of a friend, it contains 26 DVDs.

They mix film footage of real life animals, scenes, people and objects with footage of puppets. They are all backed with classical music, which is supposed to be great for baby's development and my hubby, Gary, approves of! It is all done in a fun, simple and beautiful way that grabs the attention of babies.

We love it, I really think that Benjamin gets a lot out of the DVDs. Often I sit with him and we watch them together, but he also watches them on his own and they keep him amused. The DVDs have dialogue on them, but I add to it :-) . I also leave him to watch them on his own.

The Baby Neptune is just one of the DVDs, it introduces your little one to all things watery....from rivers and the sea to your washing machine! It is just over 20 minutes long.

There is even some bonus material on the DVD:


  • Footage of an aquarium scene - I might be tempted to put this in the absence of us having an aquarium,

  • Pictures that you can print out for your little one to colour in - I have to admit that these look a bit too advanced for B and

  • Some TV flashcards - a bit too advanced for B again.
