SUMMARY / COMMENTARY:
(This section may be and sometimes is somewhat subjective.)

If Scriptural references appear, the full text appears at the end of the Summary / Commentary.



(2004), NR [G*] -- near the top of the scoring range earned by G


Production (US): The Baby Miracle Learning Company, FlagDay Productions
Distribution (US): Hart Sharp Video, LLC., NYC
Viewed on: The Baby Miracle Learning Company DVD


This video developed for infants and toddlers with 33.17 minutes of actual programming, excluding 20 seconds of intro and one minute four seconds of credits and including the two minutes ten seconds of song at the end, presents a delightful and light-hearted tour through the account of Noah and the ark which God had Noah build to provide safety for all animals while the Great Flood "cleansed" the Earth of those who were disobedient to God.

The only instance of concern for parents in this video might be the Bible tale of the Great Flood wiping out all life except for Noah and his family [Gen. 6:5 - 8]. Though the Great Flood actually happened, the story of many people being drowned because of their disobedience to God may be a disturbing story for toddlers [Gen. 6:14 - 19, 7:4, 7-22]. That we are all disobedient to God may frighten toddlers who are able to discern that because of disobedience God drowned all the people on the planet. While the video carefully but accurately addresses the subject, inquisitive kids might ask tough questions about the Great Flood you will have to address. The video also reminds us of the rainbow God placed after the Great Flood to show us of His Promise to never flood the Earth again [Gen. 8:21].

Baby Miracle: Noah's Ark displays a vast "library" of animals to help toddlers learn about life God placed on our world. In addition, the producers built a set of animal video flash cards to help toddlers learn of our worldly companions. A non-captioned sing-along is provided as well.

One of the strong learning features of this video is using ample time while showing many short videos of a great number of animals, each captioned with the animal's name. This format provides an excellent opportunity for toddlers to learn about the animals God gave us. Early exposure of infants to animal imagery should play an important role in their development, too.

The content of Baby Miracle: Noah's Ark video earned a final score of 98 with an almost negligible influence density, placing it near the top of the scoring range earned by G-rated movies (100 to 87 out of 100) in the comparative baseline database.

CHAPTER/VERSE

  • Gen. 6:5 - 8 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
  • Gen. 6:14 - 19 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch. And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits. A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it. But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee. And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.
  • Gen. 7:4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.
  • Gen. 7:22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died.
  • Gen. 8:21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.

    There are some in the entertainment industry who maintain that 1) violent programming is harmless because no studies exist that prove a connection between violent entertainment and aggressive behavior in children, and 2) young people know that television, movies, and video games are simply fantasy. Unfortunately, they are wrong on both accounts." And "Viewing violence may lead to real life violence." I applaud these associations for fortifying 1 Cor. 15:33. Read the rest of the story. From our more than eight years of study, I contend that other aberrant behaviors, attitudes, and expressions can be inserted in place of "violence" in that statement. Our Director - Child Psychology Support, a licensed psychologist and certified school psychologist concurs. For example, "Viewing arrogance against fair authority may lead to your kids defying you in real life." Or "Viewing sex may lead to sex in real life." Likewise and especially with impudence, hate and foul language. I further contend that any positive behavior can be inserted in place of "violence" with the same chance or likelihood of being a behavior template for the observer; of being incorporated into the behavior mechanics and/or coping skills of the observer. In choosing your entertainment, please consider carefully the "rest of the story" and our findings.
