Alvin and the Chipmunks - A Chipmunk Christmas (25th Anniversary Special Collector's Edition) (1983) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This one has 3 episodes, with the first being the classic early 80's Xmas Special, A Chipmunk Christmas. This is the one where Alvin gives up his prize harmonica to a sick boy for Christmas, then is in a bind because Dave booked them at Carnegie Hall and now he doesn't have it to play.
The other 2 episodes are from the late 80's TV show, The Chipmunks. The first is named Merry Christmas Mr. Carroll, and I believe it is one in the same as the VHS release a while back called Alvin's Christmas Carol. It is excatly that, Alvin is being stingy and makes up a huge Christmas list, and then is taught the meaning of Christmas by 3 ghosts.
The last episode, Dave's Wonderful Life, is in the spirit of Christmas and the story of It's A Wonderful Life, however there isn't really anthing festive or Christmasy depicted.
A must have for the 2 Xmas episodes, escpecially the first one, where we get the classic holiday tune, The Chipmunk Song!

Baby Einstein - Baby Van Gogh - World of Colors (2002) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We have all of the video products of the Baby Einstein Company. This video is more similar in format to Baby Shakespeare than the Baby Mozart / Baby Bach videos. Nevertheless, I would say that Baby Van Gogh is a better attention-getter and -holder than Baby Shakespeare. The visuals are much more professional and entertaining - the main content being color and art, as opposed to poetry readings.
If you are new to the Baby Einstein Company's products, I highly recommend them over the products of the competing companies (we have a VERY extensive childern's video library). The live-action visuals are far more engaging to infants and toddlers than the computer graphics and animation of other videos. In this respect (visually), Baby Van Gogh is even more dynamic than some of the earlier Baby Einstein productions - and certainly has a bit higher production quality. For babies under 6 months, however, I would recommend Baby Mozart as the best 'starter' in the series.
As with Baby Mozart, Baby Bach and Baby Einstein, my daughter (now almost nine months) cannot get enough of this video.
