Product Description

Do you learn better by watching rather than reading? Here is a chance to see how to transport your baby from screaming into serenity...in minutes. Watch as, step-by-step, Dr. Karp teaches new parent how to switch on their baby's powerful calming reflex. English and Spanish In "The Happiest Baby" Dr. Karp reveals a treasure sought by new parents for centuries... the "calming reflex" (the automatic "off-switch? for any baby?s crying). No wonder thousands of Los Angeles parents, from working moms to superstars like Madonna and Michelle Pfeiffer have turned to Dr. Karp to learn his secrets for making babies happy. Elisabeth Bing author and co-founder of Lamaze International "The Happiest Baby on the Block is fun, fascinating and convincing. I highly recommend it to all new parents." (Running time - 38 minutes.) The DVD also contains 3 bonus chapters: 1) Dr. Karp answers 25 questions from parents about calming babies and helping them sleep. 2) A Spanish dubbed audio track of the entire 38 minute teaching video. 3) Three tracks of calming white-noise sound that is an extraordinary mix of womb sounds and a newly designed pulsation that babies love (even though it sounds a little odd to the ears of an adult) Each track can be played individually, played in sequence or repeated for hours to gently guide your baby into a deep level of relaxation. This video is designed in NTSC not PAL or SECAM. It is meant for use in most countries in the Western Hemisphere as well as Japan, South Korea, Greenland, Guam, Samoa, and the Philippines.

5 out of 5 stars A true sanity saver!.......2007-07-08

This DVD was the best "baby care reference" that my husband and I came across. If you have a difficult baby...this really gives some great ideas to help calm him/her. You have to be willing to give it an honest try: the swaddling HAS to be tight around the arms and we went as loud as a vacuum cleaner in the same room with the baby (this trick worked every time to get her to sleep). I know it may not work for everyone 100% of the time, but it sure saved our sanity. And now that our daughter is 18 months, when she is so upset that she can't calm herself down, the vacuum cleaner still seems to do the trick! I would recommend this to any pregnant mom/couple - and it's important for all caretakers to be on board.

5 out of 5 stars Best "new baby" gift.......2007-07-07

This is my favorite gift to give at baby showers. It's the gift that has the least amount of "cuteness" factor at a baby shower, but guaranteed, it's the gift that new parents will appreciate the most after the baby is born! Who needs a gazillion cute bibs and baby outfits when what you really NEED as a new parent is your sanity? Dr. Karp is a sanity-saver for those first three months of babyhood!

5 out of 5 stars Great video!.......2007-07-05

This is an essential video for all new parents. We watched it when our daughter was about a month and a half old. She was a pretty easy baby, but it was such a relief to have new strategies for how to calm and comfort her during her "difficult" time - from 5 to 7PM. The techniques are easy and they work right away. She is almost 13 months old now and we still use the calming "shhh" to help her fall asleep sometimes. I gave away my original video and I just bought this one for another friend. Highly recommended!

5 out of 5 stars BUT IT NOW.......2007-07-04

This is the most wonderful dvd ever for new moms! They should make every new parent watch this before leaving the hospital. My baby responded immediatly at 5 weeks of age. I was growing weak with frustration-the only way I could get my baby to stop crying and/or sleep was to breast feed him...even if I knew he just had a complete feeding...this dvd is a God Send!

I used these principals on my third baby! I sure wish I had known about this dvd when my other 2 children were infants!

5 out of 5 stars Every Parent Needs this Video!.......2007-07-04

My husband and I are first time parents. We have been around small children all our lives and know what to expect from toddlerhood. We were just overwhelmed with what to do for a newborn, especially the first three months. This video taught us how to settle down our baby. Our pediatrician told us not to bind the baby's arms while he sleeps but, our infant will not sleep unless he is tightly swaddled. This video enforces that, teaches you how to swaddle right and helps you understand the needs of your newborn for the first few months. I know so many people pregnant this year and have purchased this for them as well. One friend walked their baby to sleep each night and after seeing this video and swaddling him along with the other techniques the video gives, they too get sleep and no longer have to walk him to sleep.

5 out of 5 stars Calm Baby will calm your baby!.......2007-06-25

I found this video indispensable when it came to a fussy baby. We used this video several times for that fussy transition period in the evening following play time with Dada after work and heading into time for sleep. It helped my son to wind down and relax instead of just screaming because he was over-tired. But mostly, I found this DVD the best thing for those times in the middle of the night when my son just wouldn't go back to sleep and literally nothing else worked. We would watch this video and sometimes both fall asleep, then I could put him back to bed relaxed. I'm happy to say my toddler has never slept in our bed, which is fine by both me and my husband!

5 out of 5 stars Years of sleepy time satisfaction.......2007-04-14

My son is five now and I originally recevied a used VHS from another satisfied parent with a glowing recommendation. I am now buying the DVD to replace my worn out VHS copy for all the little ones that are frequently in my home. This video does exactly as advertised it calms baby down and puts often puts them to sleep. While Baby Einstein does that for me it doesn't do it for an infant and isn't supposed to. Baby Einstein keeps them awake and engages their interest, not a calming influence. For excellent baby and toddler learning videos I recommend Babyscapes over Baby Einstein. For language learning I recommend Signing Times videos over everything. They say the word, show the picture, say the word, show the hand sign then say the word again. But if you want to calm you child down and have them sleep this is the Video to use.

4 out of 5 stars Calm Baby and Calm Parents.......2007-04-11

Very similar to the Baby Einstein videos. We use it occasionally during the "witching hour" before bedtime. Calms everyone down. Worth the money.

5 out of 5 stars Best Investment Ever!!.......2006-09-20

Calm Baby has been a life saver!! My daughter would watch this movie over and over...if we would let her. She has liked it since she was a baby and still likes it. The water and bright colors captivate her attention and keeps her interested until the end. We have also purchased other "learning" movies and they don't even compare to Calm Baby. It is truly our best investment and I would suggest it to everyone!!

5 out of 5 stars Life Saver.......2006-04-12

I have triplet sons and this video is my "in case of emergency" if they are all fussy. For whatever reason, as soon as they see/hear this video, the instantly calm down and are just captivated. They will watch it over and over and are equally as mesmorized each time. We also have the Baby Einstein videos that they don't pay attention to hardly at all. This one just really calms and quiets them. This has been a life saver for us when we can't do anything else to make them happy!

      3 out of 5 stars "Calm Baby" is better!!.......2006-10-06

      This is a good DVD but "Calm Baby" is way better. It does not capture my daughter's attention like Calm Baby does...she is bored after 15 minutes.

      5 out of 5 stars awesome dvd.......2006-04-11

      my 6 month old son loves this movie, most movies he can not sit all the way throu but his one he watches over and over. The CD that comes with it is really great to. He really enjoys the music and loves to see all the colors and animals.

      5 out of 5 stars Awesome :).......2006-03-14

      This DVD is awesome :) Both my 3 year old and 9 month old like the music and the images. The music is fun and the puppets are cute. Great purchase :)

      5 out of 5 stars A great addition to our video library!.......2005-10-11

      A friend first recommended the Calm Baby video when my son was 5 months old. I was a little skeptical because I thought he was a little too young for videos. We have several of the Baby Einstein videos, and they are all nice but none have ever really held his attention for very long. But, for some reason, my son really loved Calm Baby. The combination of puppets, nature scenes, and toys set to soothing music really calmed him down during his pre-bedtime fussy period. Calm Baby was a God-Send and I have since given copies to several other new moms I know.

      Then, for my son's first birthday, my friend again came to the rescue and bought us the Fun Baby video. This time I was expecting great things, and I was not disappointed.

      If you are familiar with the Calm Baby video, Fun Baby has the same premise - uses a water theme, puppets, animals, and nature scenes set to a combination of classical music and nursery rhymes. The music in this video though is more upbeat and the puppets and toys are all active, busy and happy. The same duck that we loved from Calm Baby is here too. This time he goes about his routine of setting up for a relaxing day at the beach (sets down his blanket, ball, umbrella, etc). My son especially loves the Duck and makes quacking sounds each time he sees it. He loves to dance to the music. I enjoy the music myself and enjoyed some of the not-so-standard nursery rhymes that I'd forgotten about from my childhood.

      Fun Baby kept my son's attention for the entire video (around 30 min), which is a pretty hard thing to do.

      Fun Baby also comes with an audio CD which is a nice feature.
