Little Einsteins to the rescue

I received a copy of Disney’s new Little Einsteins movie to review – and one to give to one of you!! Email me at info@adventures-in-motherhood.com for a chance to win a copy, I’ll do a random draw on Tuesday!

Now, we don’t have the Disney channel and my kids have only ever played the Little Einsteins game on Disney’s Playhouse, so it was a new experience for all 5 of us!

First things first, my 3 and 4 year olds did not leave the couch for the entire time the movie was on (1 hour), this was most probably because it was something they had never seen before, but I will give those little einsteins credit for holding their attention – it’s hard to accomplish! My 1 1/2 year old, however, really was not all that impressed with the movie and was quickly up and about, playing with all of his brothers toys!

The movie itself reminded me of a mix between Wonder Pets and Dora, in fact, when I was in the kitchen and could only hear the movie, I could have sworn I was hearing Ming Ming, but I must admit they were less annoying. Although I am not a big follower of classical music, the movie does contain a lot of art and culture in a way that children can learn and enjoy. Overall I think it was good, even though I would not purchase it for my kids – my cousin actually is all set to get her copy once its released, she and my niece are huge fans.

Try it out for yourself!
