At 12 months babies are discovering a whole new range of people, places and experiences that make up their daily activities. Baby's Favorite Places provides a playful, interactive introduction to first words from around town - spoken and in sign language. Special guest Marlee Matlin introduces little ones to the concept of nonverbal communication, which provide a strong foundation for early literacy and stimulate intellectual development. As babies turn one year old, they continue to develop their communication skills and may become increasingly curious about the world around them. Baby's Favorite Places is a playful introduction to the names of familiar and favorite places around town -- from the market to the library to the local park. Parents and little ones will discover 20 new words using both verbal and nonverbal communication. First, the written word is shown alongside an image of the featured place or object and the word is said aloud. Then, special guest Marlee Matlin demonstrates how to express the word through sign language. Once the words have been introduced, delightful puppet shows and real-world ../images set to the beautiful classical music of Mozart encourage parents and little ones to join the fun! The popular Baby Einstein series of educational releases continues to help strengthen
the congnitive functions of developing minds with this installment designed to help babies learn
the names of their favorite places around town. From the park to the library and everywhere in
between, youngsters will learn twenty new words that directly correspond to all the familiar
sights they see every day. In addition to showing the word accompanied by an image of the place
and then having the word said aloud, special guest Marlee Matlin demonstrates the same word in
sign language to help improve the child's non-verbal communication skills as well. Additional
footage of the real-world locations accompanied by the soothing sounds of Mozart make this release
a delight for parent and child alike. Language(s):

The Baby Einstein Company has a new DVD in town called "Baby's Favorite Places: First Words -- Around Town." This new video features baby's first words around the neighborhood and around the town. This is the second Baby Einstein video to feature the words in sign language; the first was "Baby Wordsworth: First Words -- Around the House." As in "Baby Wordsworth," Academy Award Winning actress Marlee Matlin introduces the sign language for the word as a picture of the object is shown next to her. Each word is spoken as well. At the end of each segment, a child is shown performing the signs. "Baby's Favorite Places" is divided into three segments: My Street, The Park, and Main Street. Pavlov, our favorite dog from "Neighborhood Animals," hosts this DVD. Music by Scott Joplin and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is provided by the Baby Einstein Music Box Orchestra throughout the video. My Street First words introduced in this segment are mailbox, driveway, fence, sidewalk, and garden. Each word is presented under a picture while Marlee Matlin signs next to it. Then, the real-life presentations of each word begin. There are children planting flowers in a garden and kids playing hopscotch on a sidewalk. Children ride bikes and boys play basketball in a driveway. At the end of this segment, Pavlov is trying to put mail in a mailbox but it keeps flying out. Finally, a squirrel (a new character) pokes out his head which is covered with a nightcap. Apparently, the squirrel was trying to sleep. The Park Picnic, playing field, playground, trail, and pond are the words presented in this segment. Of course children are shown feeding the ducks and fishing by a pond. Soccer and baseball fields are occupied at the park. Children swing and play on the see-saw and slide. When Pavlov tries to have a picnic with the raccoon and the squirrel, a bunch of ants come along and drag the food away. Surprisingly enough, the ants are not stealing the food, but are taking it to a shady place under a tree. Main Street There are two separate parts to this segment. The first part features school, library, salon, bank, and florist. The second part shows cafe, ice cream shop, restaurant, market, and bakery. Children are shown real-life ../images as people stand in long lines at the bank and kids have their hair cut. Couples are having coffee at a cafe and families walk out of the ice cream shop with cones piled high. |
