    5/5 great introduction to poetry
      by Chulita Goodman (Grand Forks, ND, USA)
    Like HBO's classical baby, the poetry show is wonderfully crafted. there are interviews with children and the usual animation that goes with the poem/music. celebrities voice the poems. a great introduction to poetry for both child and adult. even though i have an infant i still play this dvd for her.

    4/5 Calming and relaxing
      by TB (CT)
    I use this DVD right now as part of my 10 month's bedtime routine. The poems that are used are great, classics and the voiceovers are wonderful. It's a wonderful DVD to add to your collection.

    5/5 My son loves it!
      by Todd Hayes
    I suggest that if you have small children (2 1/2 years old and up), buy the Classical Baby Poetry DVD. My son is fascinated by the images and poetry, and the classical music is very soothing for him. When he is more able to understand language, I'm sure he'll enjoy it even more!

    5/5 Excellent Presentation
      by Linda C. Brown (Akron, Ohio)
    I am a first grade teacher and I use this video to introduce my poetry unit. My class loves it and asks to watch it over and over. It really holds their interest. They really like listening to what the children in the video say about poetry and they want to discuss the poems after viewing the video. As a teacher, you could not ask for more.

    5/5 Another excellent Classical Baby DVD
      by C. Wright (Mountain View, CA United States)
    Forget babies, I play this for my mother who has Alzheimer's. We have all the Classical Baby DVDS and play at least one of them every day. I never get tired of them.

    This video is for kids a little older, as it deals with poetry and words.

    We also have Goodnight Moon, bedtime stories with footage of kids in between talking about their concept of sleep and dreams. It's very persuasive.

    PLEASE HBO MAKE MORE OF THESE PROGRAMS!! These videos make great gifts for parents and little ones....or try it with the elderly, nursing homes, Alzheimer's units, senior day care centers. My mom loves little kids, so she can't get enough of these videos.

    Young children are instinctively drawn to the sound of rhyming words and the rhythmic cadence of poetry. Add colorful animation, music, and footage of real elementary age children, and Classical Baby has created an appealing half-hour program that encourages an early appreciation of poetry. Produced in association with The Poetry Foundation, Classical Baby: The Poetry Show is a compilation of 13 favorite poems from poetry masters like William Shakespeare, John Keats, Woodie Guthrie, and Gertrude Stein. Famous personalities including Gwyneth Paltrow and Susan Sarandon recite poems like Elizabeth Barrett Browning's "How Do I Love Thee?" and Robert Frost's "Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening." William Carlos Williams reads his own "This is Just to Say" while Hoagy Carmichael performs Johnny Mercer's "Skylark" and young children recite poems like William Carlos Williams' "The Red Wheelbarrow." Poems are accompanied by bright animation that's highly appealing to children and many are followed by brief comments from elementary age children. Some preschool and elementary-age viewers will be transfixed by the entire production while others will pick and choose the segments they find interesting, but what's most important is that every young viewer gains exposure to the art of poetry. --Tami Horiuchi
