They say different kids have different interests & while one may enjoy a particular DVD, the other may not even bother!

I recommend Baby Einstein products. Think they are very good, although pricey. Thinks its a great investment in the long run. I have 4 kids btw 8mths - 4years & they were all exposed to Baby Einstein DVDs since 6mts & still loving it!

I think a Baby Eintein DVD costs abt $20 per piece. There are abt 23 DVDs I think in its latest collection so do the math! I got mine off Yahoo Singapoe Auctions at fraction of the price though. SO you may want to check it out if you are interested.

You may find content of Bay Einstein 'babyish' for your son's age though. You may want to check the Leapfrog Learning DVDs which are also quite good & more for his age as it deals wt phonics, language etc. I recommend it too. Can get this off Amazon.

i agree with sasha... baby einstein might already be too boring for your son. i bought those when my son was 2 and he didn't enjoy it that much.

i think i got them from amazon for about US$10 a piece back then (almost 3 yrs ago). if you can find some at yahoo auctions or ebay, maybe you can try one first and see if your son likes it.
