Juno Baby ~ The Day the Music Stopped (Review)

Squish and I are thrilled to review the DVD The Day the Music Stopped by Juno Baby.

Juno Baby was created by the imaginative Belinda Takahashi, Ph. D. and has a new line of products out for your growing toddler and preschooler called Juno Jr.

“The idea for Juno Baby sprouted when we were expecting our first child. After searching for products that would be engaging, musical and fun, we quickly learned that our options were few and far between. Since necessity is the mother of invention, Juno Baby was born. Once we started, it soon became clear that our new life’s goal was to create and share original, beautiful, thoughtful, inspirational and, above all, fun music for children.” Belinda Takahasi

My favorite part about Juno Baby is actually what sets it apart from others. The music is all performed by a live orchestra especially for the program. You can really tell the level of love that went into creating each story.

The Day the Music Stopped is a great story intended to instill a love of music, while teaching your child about working together with their friends. After the Shush Machine is accidentally activated, Juno, her brother Rai Rai, and her friends begin a journey to bring music and life back to the town.

Rai Rai was a baby after my own Squishy’s heart. They are both big fans of Vroom Vrooms and Choo-Choos. During the train segment my Squish choo-choo’ed all the way through. The music is really quite catchy and very entertaining.

My favorite part was the Harmony Pond and the Harmonizing Frogs! Adorable, Fun, and easy on my ears!

The Day the Music Stopped also has a Let’s Interact! feature. Squish especially loved this. He danced around and around.

There are other bonus features that get your preschool involved and learning as well!

You can find Juno Baby their website, twitter, and facebook page. And if you act now, you can Get $40 of Juno online store credit for just $20! Hurry, offer expires soon!

I also really love how much Juno Baby gives back to the community. In December they ran a promotion for each time you shared their music (twitter, facebook and more) they donated a DVD to a child in need!

Thanks to all the wonderful aspects of the DVD and the company, Juno Baby gets a Squishy Rating of EXTRA SQUISHABLE!! A treat for any child!

Thank you US Family Guide and Juno Baby for letting us review this DVD! I foresee Squish requesting this video on many days to come!

Disclosure: I received the products listed above from Juno in exchange for this review. No monetary compensation was received by me. This review is 100% my opinion, and may differ from yours.

I apologize for lack of Squish pictures in this review - my camera is missing... probably squirreled away in the Squish Stash somewhere...

My Year in Pictures ~ 2010

I did this last year and loved looking back on the pictures. (2009 in Review) So I decided to do it again. I had a really hard time choosing pictures again. So many good times, so many memories.

A great way to remind myself how truly blessed I am. Happy New Years! See you in 2011!!
