Intended to stimulate babies' brains and exercise their memories, this first volume of the So Smart! series is designed on the basis of studies that have tried to identify what babies like to hear and see. Accompanied by pleasant, soothing music by great composers such as Bach and Beethoven, a series of animations containing simple colors, shapes, contrasting patterns, and geometric forms are presented for small children (3 months to 3 years old) - to help increase their concentration skills and accustom them to recognizing objects. Some parents have reported that their babies imitate the motions of the objects and faces, laugh at the pictures, and love to move with the music. Participating in these activities together may be another way for parents and small children to have fun. ~ Alice Duncan, Rovi
