"Disney has agreed to reimburse Canadian and U.S. parents $15.99 per video through an extended return policy.

Baby Einstein, founded in 1997, quickly became a major p_layer_ in the electronic media market for babies and young children. Disney acquired the company in 2001.

The refund offer covers all videos purchased between June 5, 2004 and Sept. 4, 2009. The offer expires March 4"

This is absolutely hilarious to me. I mean, did parents truly believe these DVDs would make their children smarter? If so, I think it's the parents that need the help more than the kids.

Hi BridgetsMom - thanks for sharing this info! I think they will have lots of refunding to do!
