We recently had the opportunity to review one of three new Discovery Kits by Baby Einstein and I want to share my thoughts with you about it!
(At the end you'll have a chance to win your own Discovery Kit!)
The kit we reviewed is called Baby Lullaby and it comes with a DVD, CD, and book.
Let me start off by saying this: Kynlee hardly watches any TV. I mean it's a rare occasion when she does. When Kynlee was between 3 and 4 months old, we let her watch "tv" for the first time (it was the laptop actually, streaming netflix). She's probably watched TV or movies on the computer around 10 times since then. That's it. Nothing seemed to hold her attention. Until now :).
Enter: The Baby Lullaby kit. Also known as The Life Saver kit (okay it's not technically known as that, but that's what I like to call it). It plays classical lullabies by Bach, Brahms and Mozart. You (and baby! ha) can relax to the sound of ocean waves, watch puppet shows and view other tranquil images. If I'm being honest here (and I always am) the DVD was seriously putting my husband and I to sleep because it is SOO relaxing!
Check out the informational video below about the discovery kits.
Kynlee literally sat in her exersaucer and watched the DVD all the way through. Luke and I kept looking at each other in awe that she was still watching! I call this kit a lifesaver because I can pop in the DVD while I need to get other things done around the house and I know it will hold her attention.
The book in this kit is small with pictures - the perfect size for Kynlee to hold and look at herself! The CD plays throughout most of the day and it's also awesome!
Overall we have been thoroughly pleased with this discovery kit and plan to get several more (if not all of them)!
For those of you who would like to try out these discovery kits for yourself, they are sold in stores and also online. Check out BabyEinstein.com for more purchasing details. These kits retail for around $19.99 US/$24.99 Canada.
But how about trying one out for FREE? :)
