We’ve read reports in the newspapers (like I did in the Denver Post) that watching educational videos like Baby Einstein is bad for babies’ language development.

But that isn’t the whole story. To learn more see my post, The Real Scoop on Watching Baby Einstein (just because you have a Dr. in front of your name doesn’t mean you’re right). In it there are links to the articles, the research studies, and the interviews Dr. Dimitri A. Christakis has given.

The study is very preliminary and doesn’t test Baby Einstein videos at all, but looks at TV viewing as a whole (as does their previous study). No wonder Disney is asking for a full retraction from the University of Washington.
