DISNEY BABY EINSTEIN™ INTRODUCES LITTLE ONES TO UNIVERSAL FIRST SOUNDS
WITH BABY’S FIRST SOUNDS: DISCOVERIES FOR LITTLE EARS DVD

Now Available on DVD, Newest Baby Einstein DVD Title Encourages Interaction Between Parents
and Babies Through Discovery of Sounds

GLENDALE, Calif. – The newest addition to the Baby Einstein DVD
collection, Baby's First Sounds: Discoveries for Little Ears delightfully introduces little ones to
some of the first sounds babies hear. From the “ba” sound in baby and the “ah” sound in arm, to
the “pa” sound in papa and the “ma” sound in mama, Baby's First Sounds: Discoveries for Little
Ears
exposes babies to various first sounds familiar to babies around the world. Hosted by a
buzzing Baby Bee puppet and featuring baby-friendly, real world images that are complemented
by the classical sounds of Mozart and Schubert, Baby's First Sounds: Discoveries for Little Ears
encourages interaction between parents and little ones by inviting them to engage and participate
out loud, while discovering the magic of sounds together.
“Regardless of the language a baby develops, infants have the capacity to make several
sounds that are common to many languages around the world,” explains Dr. Karen Hill Scott, a
nationally renowned child development expert consulting with The Baby Einstein Company on
various projects. “Baby’s First Sounds provides parents with a new and playful tool they can use
to expose their little one to the first sounds of language they will encounter in their daily lives.”

Baby's First Sounds: Discoveries for Little Ears engages little ones’ interest by first
exposing them to the common sounds from around the world. Each sound is then said out loud
several times to encourage little ones to repeat what they hear and to join in the fun. In addition
to introducing first sounds, Baby's First Sounds: Discoveries for Little Ears incorporates familiar
songs, such as “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” and recognizable nursery rhymes, including
“Humpty Dumpty” and “Hey Diddle, Diddle,” to encourage parents and little ones to sing out
loud together.

Bonus features further emphasize parent-child interaction, which is an important
component of Baby's First Sounds: Discoveries for Little Ears. Designed to provide caregivers
with tips on how to engage and interact with baby around the theme of “first sounds,” the bonus
features include “Fun With Phonemes” where Baby Einstein puppets introduce little ones to the
sounds of the world and feature real-world images that correspond to the sound heard on screen.
