So many parents today are fooling themselves by buying high-tech gadgets and things like Baby Einstein, thinking that they are making their children smarter. The best possible thing to do for your children to aid in their growth is to interact with them as much as possible. Basic things such as blocks, picture books, stackable rings, simple puzzles, dolls/action figures, play houses, leggos, etc. are incredible learning tools. Your child is building fine motor skills while at the same time using creativity and exploration to make synaptic connections. Don’t forget to use fun sensory things like playdough, clay, water, mud, sand, and shaving foam as well. Art supplies should include lots of blank paper, red, blue, yellow, black and white paint (let your child discover new colors as she mixes the paint), a box of mixed crayons, pens, or pencils, and glue or scissors depending on age-appropriateness. Remember that our parents and grandparents didn’t have a lot of high-tech equipment when they were growing up and they seemed to make it okay!

Baby Einstein knows that babies are naturally curious. Therefore, all of our products are designed to encourage discovery and inspire new ways for parents and little ones to interact. What makes Baby Einstein products unlike any other is that they are created from a baby’s point-of-view and incorporate a unique combination of real world objects, music, art, language, science, poetry, and nature — providing parents an opportunity to expose little ones to the world around them in playful and enriching ways. This simple principle is the foundation for The Baby Einstein Company and its products.
I’ve tried Baby Einstein’s products, when I play their DVD my babies really watches and enjoys… now their in pre-school, musically inclined, artistic and is very good in math and science. I can easily talk and explain to them things even the fright with doctor’s needles and dentist.

Go for fun first with a focus on where your child needs growth. If your child is great with gross motor skills but lacking in fine motor, then maybe find things to work on that or vise versa. http://www.Lakeshorelearning.com has some great stuff or if you search with teacher supplies or resources you’ll find all sorts of stuff. Hope that helps!
