Not Latin OR Educational!

"Honestly, this is one of the worst videos I have EVER seen. I was shocked to see home video production quality -- like somebody created this video in their living room. Cheap puppets on a back sheet or white sheet back ground.

And neither the music or the content was Latin or educational. Once in a blue moon a voice would say a color in spanish -- but the word was only said once and had nothing visual to back it up.

The description says it teaches Latin culture and values... HOW? By showing a store bought baby mobile and toy cars on a race track and a pineapple puppet? Right.

This is basically some folks out to sell cheap toys with a cheap video.

I WANT MY MONEY BACK!"

This DVD is better than Baby Einstein-It has the Latin Touch

"My Baby, Daniel, is seven months and we have use the baby einstein videos since he was two months. He enjoys those. However, my husban and I didn't feel that this videos where able to help us to show him our world- Latin America. At this stage, I'm looking for valuable tools to stimulate my child and "Mi Bebé Discovers Latin America" is fantastic to acomplish that in a great way for my baby. The music has different rithms from my beloved land like merengue, cumbia and tango. This is not a video to learn Spanish, but to learn about our heritage throughout music, didactic images and playful puppets that by the way are so original- like the pam tree. We are truly satisfy! If you are from latin america and like the Baby Einstein videos like Mozart, then this video is right for you."

Not as I expected

"This DVD consists of hand puppets, music and an occasional Spanish word. It covers only colors and shapes. It might be good with a Spanish-speaking adult to guide the child, but It really doesn't do much to teach Spanish. I noticed that one other reviewer had my same opinion. I believe that this DVD is not much better than a home video. I purchased several other products that were much better. Check out other reviews and make your choices. I am returning this product."
