Description:
Since early on, the Baby Einstein Company's mission has been to expose young children to the "greatest forms of human expression"--language, poetry, art, and music. Since receiving widespread acclaim for such solid programs as Baby Bach and Baby Mozart, the company has made a natural progression into another expressive realm--the animal kingdom--with its Baby Dolittle series. Neighborhood Animals was the first foray into critter country followed by this exquisite sequel, World Animals, introducing youngsters, ages 1 to 4 years old, to the wonder, beauty, and hilarity of earth's creatures.

Since early on, the Baby Einstein Company's mission has been to expose young children to the "greatest forms of human expression"--language, poetry, art, and music. Since receiving widespread acclaim for such solid programs as Baby Bach and Baby Mozart, the company has made a natural progression into another expressive realm--the animal kingdom--with its Baby Dolittle series. Neighborhood Animals was the first foray into critter country followed by this exquisite sequel, World Animals, introducing youngsters, ages 1 to 4 years old, to the wonder, beauty, and hilarity of earth's creatures. In this 30-minute program, viewers journey to three natural animal habitats--jungle, ocean, and savannah--to watch tigers prowl, elephants romp, and giraffes glide with grace. They'll meet zebras, lemurs, starfish, and squirrels, toucans, pandas, and bears in footage both stunning and whimsical. Catering to the short attention span of its viewers, the video seamlessly flows from live action footage to colorful puppet segments (starring Jane the monkey) using engaging stage props (like a giant bubble blower) and kids' drawings. Animal paw prints morph into words and finally photos so that children learn to recognize the various animals while laughing out loud at their antics--monkeys swinging, dolphins diving, and sea turtles swimming. Requisite classical music accompanies the action, including symphonies by Dvorák and Mendelssohn, along with an assortment of kid-friendly songs. Expect repeat play of this lovely, captivating video from a production company that continues to outdo itself. --Lynn Gibson
