Baby Einstein Mirror Me!: A Mirror Book

My son got this book as a present before he was born. I was determined to start reading it to him as soon as I could and I have been reading it to him for 9 months now. He really enjoys looking at the colorful illustrations and the mirrors on the opposite page. He now reaches out and turns each page when he is ready. And he also knows to expect me to blow into his hair when the cow page comes...since cow goes "puff and blow". He even looks at me when he sees the cow and smiles. I have had this book memorized for awhile now, but that isn't such a bad thing....since I can now look at my son while we read and see what he is thinking. So far, he has really enjoyed this book and even though the cover says ages birth to 9 months, I think we will enjoy this one a bit longer. Definately an easy read for any parent and lots to look at and engage any baby or child.

My son is 4-1/2 months old; this book has been his clear favorite since he was about a month old. The bold, bright graphics were enough to hold his attention even at a very young age, and now he enjoys the colors, facial expressions of the characters, and of course looking at himself in the mirrors. As another reviewer mentioned, the mirrors are not particularly clear, but it's never dampened my son's enjoyment of this book. The main characters are all basic colors, which is an opportunity to teach color concepts to your child. My son has also started to imitate the facial expressions of the characters, such as sticking out his tongue. I highly recommend this book for all parents of infants; it's engaging and offers lots of opportunities to interact with your child.

Low-quality mirrors? Come on, it's a board book! These mirrors are good enough for my eight-month-old (of course, so is the dishwasher front). She's LOVED this book since she was about 4 months old and claps whenever I pull it out. Buy it!

My son who is 10 months has loved this book since he got it at 4 months. He smiles and laughs every time. I can watch his reaction to the pictures by angling the mirror just right. Sometimes he gets a glimpse of mom watching him and finds that funny too.

I was a bit skeptical when I received my first Baby einstein video while I was pregnant. I couldn't imagine any baby interested in videos yet and thought the company was playing to parents with the implications in their name. I now know better. I have become a true fan and supporter of all Baby Einstein products. This is the first board book I purchased from them and my daughter adores it. I already read to my daughter every day. She enjoyed listening to me but rarely took interest in the actual illustrations in books. This book has changed all that. On one side are bright pictures and the other a mirror. Although the text is quite simple my daughter adores the illustrations and of course looking at herself. She's a vain one already! It might be a lil too simple for older children but perfect since my daughter was 2 months old. I usually add text while I'm reading to lenghten the time spent on each page. I am delighted she's actually taken an interest in the actual book I'm reading and not just my voice. Baby Einstein promotes healthy development and learning in children so I now promote Baby Einstein.
