My son, the Classical Music Enthusiast

Caleb had an amazing response to classical music the other day. He was cranky, so I put him down and turned on Beethoven on the computer. He was captivated! He stared wide-eyed, open mouthed at the ceiling, smiling, listening, cooing, and moving his legs. I have never seen him so enthralled! It was amazing. I was out of the way and he couldn't see me, so it was clearly the music that captured his attention. This went on for a full 60 minutes! That's like eons in baby time!

So it appears that he likes classical music. Well, Beethoven at least...Moonlight Sonata, Ode to Joy (they are favorites of mine too). Since he likes Beethoven, I went out yesterday and bought him a Baby Beethoven DVD from Baby Einstein. We'll see how he likes that. And maybe we'll listen to classical music every afternoon from now on.
