Summary: Mesmerizing!
Review: This DVD is mesmerizing just like every other Baby Einstein video collection, and my baby can sit there and not even notice anything or anyone around him while he's watching.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful!
Review: Our 9 month old baby boy loves this video/dvd. We have Baby Bach (his favorite of the bunch) Baby Mozart (not as in to that one) and Baby Van Gogh (loves this one almost as much as Baby Bach. He will watch it straight for a good 15 minutes so that I am able to jump in the shower and know that he is safe and happy. Great Christmas present for those expecting or with a little one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: We love it
Review: Both I and my daughter love this video. She is 14 months old, and if it werent for this video, I wouldnt get the kitchen clean. Now we are going to buy 2 more Einstein videos.

Summary: Miracle cure for VERY crabby baby!!!!!!!!
Review: I had origionally borrowed baby beethoven from the library for my 4 month old son, who is incredibly crabby and needs to be walked and entertained much of the day. When i saw how much he enjoyed it i had to buy him one and i bought van gogh next. This is the absolute miracle cure for him!!! He will happily watch the entire half hour video, smiling and kicking his feet at the TV. I felt a little guilty at first, putting a newborn in front of the TV. But he is my third child and it is impossible to get anything done with him. I figure it is no different than holding a bunch of toys in front of him myself. And he loves the music, too. We are deffinitely going to buy more of these videos. An unexpected bonus - my 3 and 7 year old girls love the videos too! Especially my 3 year old; she sits and watches with him and she knows what is going to come next. My older girl loves to dance to the music. Worth every penny.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Thank God for the Goat!!!
Review: I cannot say enough good things about baby Van Gogh! And I cannot disagree more wholeheartedly that this video is not good for newborns. We start showing this DVD to our baby at 3 months- she was captivated! She would laugh and laugh at the little puppet Vincent Van Goat, especially the part where he pops the green balloons. Anytime she was fussy - we just played the video and like a miracle she calmed down. I know everyone says that they won't use TV as crutch - but when you are sleep deprived a few moments of a content happy baby is worth its price in gold.
I don't think that other people really believed how great this DVD is until I invited a group of new mothers over for lunch. We put six babies in front of the DVD player (in their cars seat) played Baby Van Gogh - All of the babies were mesmerized! All six moms actually were able to eat lunch.
In addition, my baby didn't really like bath time. I bought the Vincent Van Goat bath puppet and now she kicks and laughs in the tub.
This product is the best!!!

Summary: Not as good as we expect
Review: Comparing with other Baby Einstein series videos,this one is just ok. It really needs some "meat". Just showing some puppets and paintings of Van Gogh is not enough. This is the worst of the series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You CAN Keep an Infant's Attention!
Review: Ok, watching the video as an adult, I thought it was a lot of money for such a simple concept - music, a couple puppets, and what could be home movies of Julie's own children's toys in motion. I couldn't believe someone marketed this and it has become such a household name... Until I put my 2 month old in front of the tv in an attempt to actually get a shower before noon. He sat through the entire dvd in awe. It has been over a month and I let him watch it almost every day. He kicks and coos at the tv and watches the whole dvd without a single fuss. He will even look around me if I get in the way. I guess Ms. Clark is on to something, and I now give her the kudos she deserves! We also have Baby Mozart but Van Gogh is still his favorite! (And the Repeat option means I can shower AND put on makeup!)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Thing Ever for a quick time out for Mom?
Review: I got this as a birthday gift for my first daughter, who is now 3, when she was 1. I had already received Baby Mozart from the same friend 3 years ago when my first daughter was born. I totally rejected the whole "classical" theme of having to make my child a genius before she can even talk. So I gave my Baby Mozart away without ever watching it, and I shelved my gift of Baby Van Gogh for 2 years. However, after my 2nd daughter was born I was much more open to anything that would entertain my baby, now that I had two to take care of, and decided to pop in Baby Van Gogh and, OH MY GOSH! I couldn't believe it. She was enthralled. She watched the entire thing, barely taking her eyes off the screen. Like another reviewer said, she is less interested in the still pictures than the colorful puppets and toys, but overall she loves it. She gets so excited as soon as she hears the opening song and sees the caterpillar inching across the screen. Whatever she is doing she will stop and turn toward the screen for the show. She's 6 months now and has been watching Baby Van Gogh since about 3 months. I recently repurchased Baby Mozart again and she likes it, too. I also got Baby Shakespeare, although she doesn't like it nearly as much, I think because it has more of the "real" pictures. She still loves Baby Van Gogh the best, and it is good every time for a rest for me if I need to take a shower or cook dinner or have free hands to play with my 3 year old, who also enjoys watching the videos with her baby sister, even at her age, although this week she would rather watch Fox & the Hound than anything else. So I would recommend Baby Mozart & Van Gogh. Shakespeare isn't too good for babies and I heard that Bach isn't that good either.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This video is approved by 10 month old Malcolm himself!
Review: The Baby Einstein products are wonderfully visual videos/DVDs set to classical music with a baby flare... our personal favourite is Baby Van Gogh.

This video is hosted by adorable and humorous Vincent Van Goat. There are 6 masterpieces dedicated to six colours. Each masterpiece is begins with showing the spelling of the colour and the whole set is accompanied with classical music with a flare that will appeal to youngsters. Each colour is narrated with a poem dedicated to that colour. Little viewers see each colour in many contexts - in nature, at home, on toys and art. This highly sensory experience is sure to delight and stimulate any precious mind.

The recommended ages are 1-4 years...

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Sound Modulation Problems
Review: The visuals of this video are fair, though not up to par with those of Baby Dolittle. The sound truly [stinks]. Overpowered by accompanying music, Julie-Aigner-Clark's poems come off as nearly-inaudible babblings.
