 Only if you use in conjunction with the videosSep 03, 2003

I bought this cards thinking that they had true photographs of the actual objects. Instead, the animals are the stuffed creations from the videos and not photos of real animals at all. I thought this was very disappointing, especially since I loved the concept of the different languages on the cards. I think this set is only useful when used with the videos.

Serious WarningJul 17, 2008
By Laura Miller
"Elbell"
As a homeschooling mom (myself raised by teachers) I was very disturbed by the BE Language Discovery Cards I bought for my 1 yr. old. But first I'll mention the positives: the cards have large letters and colorful pictures. On the back are teaching tips, and the word from the front of the card is written in 6 other languages with pronunciation provided. I almost gave 2 stars just for this aspect. Now for the bad: I was disgusted that many of the pictures that are supposed to represent words are stuffed animals, abstract toys, and other confusing items that just don't represent the word well. Examples: the word CAT has a picture of a shiny, slick plastic cat figurine while the tip on the back says, "cats have soft fur". The word STAR has a picture of something like a teething toy with round corners - it barely looks like a star. The word BEAR is represented by a ceramic statuette of a bear wearing a suit and playing a violin. The teaching tips say, "This bear is playing a violin" and also, "Bears live in the woods". Hmmm... since they think I need tips on teaching my baby, it would help if they would explain how bears who live in the woods can obtain suits and violin lessons. Don't plan to raise a scholar on these cards unless you plan to do a lot of un-teaching

 Best Baby Einstein item I've bought!!!Apr 13, 2003
By M. Reyes
"maddamg"
My son and I absolutely love these cards. It's very educational and my son spoke his first word as soon as I pointed to one card. The quality is great; each card is laminated to last you many years. All the items in the cards are found in other Baby Einstein videos/dvds. I especially love the teaching aides and words in various languages on the back of the cards to help parents use the cards effectively. I found that it's not only educational for the child but for the parent as well.

 WarpedAug 23, 2003
The concept for these cards is great, but I do not recommend you buy them. The pictures of the animals are not of animals at all, but of stuffed toys that barely even resemble the animals "depicted." Children would be confused by, for example, a frog that barely even resembles a real frog. I pulled all of the "warped" cards and have used the remaining ones with my daughter.

DisappointmentFeb 01, 2007
By C. A. Hughes
I definitely agree with what another reviewer wrote that these are just a plug for the videos. I was on a search for flashcards and these were the only ones available at toys r us. They are totally a plug for the baby einstein dvds. A lot of the pictures and suggestions for parents arent so great. The Early Learning Fun Flash Cards are WAY better and a much better value. I wouldnt waste my time or money on any of the baby einstein flashcards!
