5.0 out of 5 stars My 18-month old son's favourite video, Jun 27 2006

This review is from: Baby Einstein - :On the Go - Riding Sailing and Soaring (DVD)
This DVD is wonderful for little boys who, like my son, are already at an early age interested in cars, trucks, and trains, etc.

It's longer than other Baby Einstein videos (about 40 minutes) but my son's attention is captured throughout the whole thing. It's divided by kinds of transportation--there's a section called "Things That Go on Land," and one called "Things That Go on Water," and so on. Toddlers are introduced to a myriad of transportation devices--every day things like strollers, school buses and motorcycles to more unusual things like cruiseships and hang gliders. I expected the video to focus on cars and trucks, but it covers absolutely everything. Like other BE videos, it teaches toddlers with a comination of real-life footage and photographs, animation, and puppets, with pleasant music throughout.

Like I said my son really loves this video. (He especially loves the "Wheels on the Bus" song since he knows how to say Bus!) It's definitely one of the best Baby Einstein videos out there, especially for little boys, although I'm sure little girls would enjoy it too as it's very colourful and interesting.

4.0 out of 5 stars are the bells & whistles a bit too much?, Nov 29 2005
By L.K.B.H. "alfie_henry" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Baby Einstein - :On the Go - Riding Sailing and Soaring (DVD)
my son is 18 months old and has just been allowed to start watching the baby einstein videos--he loves neighborhood animals and world animals and asks for them daily (we watch either "ducks!" or "growls!" once a day). after a trip on an airplane over thanksgiving, we decided to get On The Go for him to mix it up a little...

there are indeed good things about this video, but these good things are also encased in bad:

1. lots of different vehicles--probably too many different ones, in fact...do we need both a 'sailBOARD' AND a 'sailBOAT' in the same segment?

2. loads of BRIGHT colors--but this video has more computer images than 'real life' puppets...the opening segment with the raccoon driving the car over the bright green CG road is a bit much and feels like something from an austin powers movie

3. the music in this video has an eerie/music box quality to parts of it--the music that accompanies the spinning wheel (which has a car, a plane, a boat and a train on it) is very mellow and tinkly and then the same tune is repeated at various times throughout the video...yes, it's a classical tune BUT it's a watered down, synthesizer version and that just doesn't cut it.

4. lots of repetition--i.e., the opening sequence features an eye-level shot of a boy riding in a toy car that's pushed by a girl...you see this same footage about 5 minutes later in the 'on the land' segment.

overall, this is a decent dvd (i'm not going to bash it for all of the frontloaded garbage that you have to fast-forward through to get to the real dvd...that's too easy--but suffice it to say it is a pain)--the train segment is great and the vehicles are pretty cool (there are tons of shots of various ones, too)...unlike Neighborhood Animals or World Animals, my son did not want to watch this one straight through--and to me, that's a good thing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic toddler entertainment!, Nov 3 2005
By Laura Peterson - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Baby Einstein - :On the Go - Riding Sailing and Soaring (DVD)
I am so impressed that Disney could come up with a video that was better than Baby McDonald which WAS my daughter's all time favorite, but she now has a new Baby Einstein that she loves just a little bit more!!! She was literally sitting on the edge of her chair while she watched Baby On the Go while alternately getting up and flying like a plane or make choo-choo noises or singing the verses she knows of Wheels on the Bus. I was surprised by how much she interacted versus some of the kid's shows were she just glazes over. So, not only is this entertaining, it is a great learning tool.

We have been incredibly impressed with the recent Baby Einstein videos that have come out in the past couple of years, and only let our daughter watch television once or twice a week. That said, the only thing she ever wants to watch is Baby McDonald, Baby Galileo, Baby Noah and now, Baby On the Go. I would recommend this to any and all moms, and in fact just bought two more as gifts. Well done, Disney!

5.0 out of 5 stars Once again, it's a hit!, Nov 2 2005
By E. Shaklee - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Baby Einstein - :On the Go - Riding Sailing and Soaring (DVD)
My 17 month old son can't get enough of this DVD! From the first moment it was on, he was hooked. He now picks up the case and brings that one to me when he's chosing a movie. The puppets and the Wheels on the Bus segments are his favorite. Nothing stops an attack of the grumps like this one.
