Top 10 Creepiest Baby Einstein Moments

Baby Einstein is a franchise created by Julie Aigner-Clark. She created it as entertainment for babies and toddlers, so it must be all fun and games, right? Wrong. Baby Einstein has some scary parts in it, but babies don't even realize it until later. And it can scar you for life, like it did for me. So I'm counting down the top 10 creepiest Baby Einstein moments.

NOTE- I only found exactly 10 creepy moments in Baby Einstein, and that was perfect! The problem is...they were from the very first four movies: Language Nursery, Baby Mozart, Baby Bach, and Baby Shakespeare.
The Top Ten
1 Zylon Dragon (Baby Bach)

This is the only thing on this list I was afraid of. I was odd, because if there was a moment I considered scary in a video, I wouldn't watch it all, whereas with this one, even though with this one I was scare do it this moment but it was still my favorite video for some reason. I was scared of the Cow in Language Nursery, the Zylon Dragon in Baby Bach, the opening Vincent puppet show in Baby Van Gogh, the Mousetrap in Baby Dolittle, the Elephant sneezing in Baby Da Vinci, and the post-credits puppet show in Baby Monet. I would refuse to watch Baby Galileo because of the stars puppet show because I felt bad when the baby kangaroo bumped into his mom.

AHHH! I am half screaming and half singing like he does. This is the second creepiest moment in Baby Einstein, but don't get me started on #1. You all saw this coming.

He made me crap my pants and he still makes me cry and crap myself. He looks like Satan and I still see him on the T.V..

2 Bard the Dragon (Baby Mozart)

I've always despised this little green bastard since I was a baby. Thing was uglier than Lucifer was I was a baby. Nowadays I'm not scared, but god, it just looks so uncanny. The black background really doesn't help. This part was probably my first fight or flight experience, I ran out of the room like he was going to maul me like a bear. It's just so creepy, even today. It's just so off.

BLAH! Bard the Dragon tops as the creepiest moment in Baby Einstein. The puppet shows starring him, (A New Friend and Blah! ) scared me equally as a baby. I've had nightmares about him, and I remember one like it was yesterday. He appeared one day in front of me, and I tried to blah him away. Worst mistake. He started blahing at me just like he did in Baby Mozart. Several times. Then, I ran away, and the last thing I saw was Bard. Then I woke up.

I'm not that scard of him now, but when I was little, I was so scared of bard! I got over the fear of the puppet a few years later, but I'm still very scared of the drawing version of him. in the end of the little video tutorial about baby einstein that was at the end of the original videos when they were on vhs tapes, the last ten second of the video shows bard as a drawing, and he just stares. it creeps the heck out of me(using clean language here for little children) still to this day, and it gives me nightmares

3 Dolls (Language Nursery)
4 Bard Jumpscare (Baby Shakespeare)

The Bard jumpscare was not scary at all. Bard was only scary in Baby Mozart, when he did all these scary facial expressions. Bard was much nicer to the audience in Baby Shakespeare because he wasn't scary.

The six note opening introduces Bard the Dragon, host of Baby Shakespeare. But don't let my description fool you. Watch and you'll see yourself.

5 Bard Plush Toy (Baby Mozart)

When I watched Baby Mozart, the video did not have this toy. Instead, a caterpillar dropped. Also, the background was white instead of black.

Right after Turkish March, a Bard the Dragon plush randomly falls to the ground and scares everyone with a loud noise.

Yes, when I watched Baby Mozart, Mr Buggity Bugget dropped down. I had the old version.

6 Bugs (Baby Van Gogh)

Alrighty, side comment, I find it hard to sleep without having a dream about them. You see, I'd have repeating dreams with me chilling, watching Baby Van Gogh and whenever those bugs appeared, I couldn't skip it! Anyways, I'm glad they have been replaced by the Shufflebugs.

When I was little, I was chillin at my mom's computer watching Baby Van Gogh, and that loud noise of those bugs scared the heap out of me. So my mom noticed that I got scared because of the high volume I think

So...like I said when explaining why Baby Van Gogh was creepy, it was because of those gosh darn bugs popping out of nowhere. That even in high quality (60fps) I refused to look at it.

7 Pecking Rooster (Baby Mozart)

The rooster pecks three times, each making a loud noise. The first two would surprise someone, but the last peck waits a couple seconds so it can make you pee your pants.

This is the creepiest scene in the entire Baby Einstein series! The 3 pecks sometimes give me nightmares.

8 Dancing Crayons (Baby Newton)
9 Meep Meep the Chicken (Baby Bach)

The very beginning of Baby Bach. With that background music, this is pretty creepy stuff.

When I was first watching this, the first thing I heard was chickens clucking and I screamed: " Chicken! "

He's real name is also Cornelius the dancing chicken and when I first saw him in Baby Bach,he looked like a cartoony chicken,because of the eyes.

10 Lamb (Language Nursery)
The Contenders
11 Robots (Baby Bach)

The robots just creep me out for some reason.

How are this scary there just funny when they bump into each other

12 Talking Sunflower (Baby Bach)

I'm not scared of that Sunny The Sunflower Toy. She's kinda cute and can sing like the other singing plants

Creepy, but it wasn't the scariest thing that happened in Baby Bach.

13 Clowns (Baby Bach)
14 Giraffe Cone Puppet (World Animals)

Last night, I was sleeping fine and dreaming some good stuff, but I found out a rare episode of the renewed Baby Neptune Episode and it had rare scenes. After the song it showed an Advertisement about the Miami Design Thing, and suddenly I heard the kazoo playing and that Giraffe Cone Puppet appeared out of nowhere and the closing circle thing that stops on each color background setting, scared the heap out of me and I hid under the sleeping sheets.

People, DON'T TELL ME TO FACE MY FEARS! Because thanks to this thing, I'm still getting nightmares even at a teenager age! I actually did try to face my fears of that thing bd silently watching the screen not saying a word, with my heart pounding, and watching that thing! When it was over I was like THANK GOD! But what do ya know the second when I'm sleeping at night, OH GOD NO KILL THAT CONE PUPPET! And I'm surprised how people even found these things because I don't know how they deal with this drunk-Atic giraffe looking nightmare, looking like it wants to terrorize kids for a living… like I DON'T UNDERSTAND!

15 Baby Einstein opening

So creepy. When I was 4 my baby sister LOVED watching those. When I saw the theme for the first time and I had nightmares for weeks. One time my sister was watching it, I ran and hid behind the couch. I've grown out of my phase, but whenever I see it, I still get scared

When I was a toddler, me and my sister would run into the kitchen and wait for the caterpillar to leave. I grew out of that phase now. I just realized that the caterpillar was not going for me and my sister's souls, it was only friendly.

Yeah, this is making me go into turmoil. The fact that the music sounds creepy and the caterpillars smile seals the entire deal. Enough said for how disturbing it is.

16 Goldfish Popup (Baby Neptune)

This really comes out of nowhere. Don't believe me? Watch Baby Neptune and get scared, hence the name "Popup" in the title.

I don't think this is scary. I don't even think the crab at the end of Baby Neptune is scary.

Gosh darn it goldfish! You are the reason I was scared of baby Neptune!

17 Possessed Van Gogh (Baby Van Gogh)

I do agree on this. Van Gogh was one of the scariest episodes to me because of this! Also was Van Gogh really possessed?

While the fake static and possessed painted SCP Vincent creeped and scared me as a kid, but I no longer fear it.

How is this scary? It's really not.

18 Santa in Plane (Baby Santa's Music Box)

I Scare Better than the Train Too, Thomas & Friends Confirmed, the Water Is Frozen in the South Pole, There's No Green Snow Here Today on Christmas!

Unlike in the Little Einsteins the Christmas Wish Episode... Santa Claus Is Flying on the Sleigh with the Reindeers During the Snowstorm

19 Baby Einstein Ending
20 Knocking Over Stacked Letter Blocks (Language Nursery)

It didn't scare me until the hand knocked over the blocks.

21 Dancing Cacti (Baby Van Gogh)

They would give me nightmares when I was 2! It's why Baby Van Gogh's the scariest episode!

22 Horse Puppet Eating Flower (Numbers Nursery)

There was a video called "Flower Murder" where a baby was watching numbers nursery on a laptop and the horse and the flower puppet show came on and when he ate the flower, the baby threw a HUGE MELTDOWN! And the mom was trying to calm down the baby. Plus, this video came with a disclaimer saying: Parental advisory: content may not be suitable for babies under 6 months old, due to graphic drama and/or violence to a flower.

Do NOT, DO NOT put this on in front of a infant, they'll get caught off guard and cry.

Please be careful not to put this show on in general.

23 Hippo/Elephant Puppet Show (Baby Noah)

I agree with you noah The elephant is out of control because she interrupted the Hippos from singing!

24 Dog Puppet (Baby Mozart)

I'm a bit surprised that this isn't really higher on the list. When I was little I was afraid of it because of it's bark and my parents forced me to sit down with them and watch it in order to help me face my fears. But they soon realized it was gonna take me a long time to face that fear, so they let me try it out on my own. I've not been afraid ever since.

25 Jane the Monkey Jumpscare

So creepy that Jane popped up out of nowhere and I got so scared that I had nightmares of her popping up on the screen.
