Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
We got a set of "Baby Einstein" videos for Gabe a while back. They're 'tuned' for different age ranges and introduce science, math, languages, art and music mixed in with lots of eye catching CGI graphics and infants/small kids talking.
Gabe seems to like them. He's watching "baby bach" right now, which keeps him busy for ~15-20 minutes at a time, which lets me catch up on posting! I dont know if its just a 'big bright' thing for him or if he's really able to identify anything thats going on. I understand some babies dont establish good medium range visual acuity until they're 4-6 months old.
On the other hand, this is playing on a 10' screen on the wall through my projector and he's getting dolby digital surround sound of the bach soundtrack...
I guess we'll never know if this sort of thing actually does stimulate the brain or help establish thinking and learning patterns as we have no 'control'.
If it doesnt look like its doing anything, I'll just substitute some anthony hopkins movies.
