Einstein Drains Baby Brains

Baby Einstein makes you stupid! Science says so.

Buyer beware: Videos aimed at improving infant and toddler language skills are not as beneficial for language learning as they claim to be, according to a new study.
Rather than helping youngsters, such products may actually hurt their vocabularies.

Watch out for sharp edges on DVDs!

Update: Full text of the paper, Associations between Media Viewing and Language Development in Children Under Age 2 Years, is freely available.
