Introduces 12 Shapes and 12 Colors Catchy sing-along songs DVD includes special features such as: Baby Bloopers, Behind The Scenes, Video Sing-Along and an Interactive Activity. 45 minutes
Reaching beyond the basic rainbow and building-block primer, Brainy Baby: Shapes & Colors celebrates the many forms and hues that typical 1- to 4-year olds encounter in their everyday surroundings. A music video introduces the shapes portion of the show by focusing on edible triangles, circles, and crescents. A thorough, creative rundown of 11 shapes ensues, led by a helpful narrating voice that gently introduces words ("This is a circle"), asks simple questions ("How many rectangles do you see?"), and points out interesting sights. Halfway through the 40-minute program, a second music video gives viewers a chance to stretch, wiggle, and prepare to learn about 12 colors. Outstanding camera work captures imaginative footage outdoors and indoors, from preening pink flamingos to gleeful toddlers cavorting with foam shapes. The DVD also includes an interactive storybook, narrated by a child, to reinforce lessons learned; a video sing-along; and other parent/child activities. --Liane Thomas

It's okay:
It's okay. I do like how they teach the colors and shapes, although the production value could be better for the price. It doesn't have an actual storyline, but it's a decent educational video. Unlike some I've seen, it's not confusing or unclear in anyway. The use of real kids is good, too. Helps hold my son's attention. He's two and doesn't ask for this video by name, but if I put it in, he usually watches. The colors section is the best I've seen so far.
great learning tool:
previously purchased brainy baby "music" video for my 1 & 2 year old daughters and they love it. decided to expand the video library with brainy baby shapes and colors and they enjoy it just as much!
Excellent and Entertaining:
My daughter's have both loved this video. It helped my older one learn her shapes quickly. The songs are catchy and I find myself singing along from the front seat. I prefer these over Baby Einstein any day!
