'Baby Einstein' Videos Ineffective, Study Finds

Why does this come as no surprise?

"A popular series of videos targeted at babies and praised by President Bush has been found to be ineffective. A new study has found that Baby Einstein videos actually inhibit learning. "

The slick marketing of these videos always was a warning sign to me as a parent to stay away. Also, any parent who believes that placing a baby in front of a passive video could be helpful is not doing their homework.
