The Baby Einstein Company (2006)

Nickname: "The Rolling Caterpillar"

Logo: On a white background, we see a colorful rolling caterpillar sliding in on wheels. It looks at the camera for a few seconds and blinks,. The first time it blinks, the logo appears. The camera zooms out revealing the Baby Einstein logo shadowed, the text "Great minds start little." flies in the corner.

Variants:


 * Beginning with Numbers Nursery, a DVD version or a promo, the words "Great minds start little" don't appear.
 * An in-credit version appeared on Little Einsteins.
 * On the Baby Einstein Discovery Kits, this logo is shown, but with the new Baby Einstein logo.
 * Since 2007, the logo is shown, but with the new Baby Einstein logo.
 * Since 2008 to 2013, the new Baby Einstein is shown, but slightly different.

Trivia: This logo was based on a scene from Baby Einstein featuring a toy caterpillar.

FX/SFX: CGI animation produced by Stephen Rozmiarek. The same CGI animation was produced since 2007 before the new CGI animation in 2008.

Music/Sounds: A bird chirping sound, a calm, soothing woodwind/chime theme composed by Bill Weisbach, and a winking noise, followed by Julie Aigner Clark saying "For more information on our developmental products for babies - and toddlers, visit babyeinstein.com. Enjoy the show."

Music/Sounds Variant:


 * Sometimes, there is no voice-over.
 * A Spanish or other language's versions exists.
 * A 2000 DVD version exists, but a little bit extended.

Availability: Seen on most Baby Einstein videos starting with "Baby Van Gogh" and ending with "Lullaby Time", which has the next logo instead. Don't expect to see this on post-2007 prints of these videos either; they have the next logo instead. The "Baby Santa" variant is super rare and is only seen on Artisan Entertainment prints. This also appeared on the Baby Einstein discovery kits, but with the new Baby Einstein logo instead.

Editor’s Note: None.

3rd Logo (November 23, 2007-November 23, 2010)

The Baby Einstein Company (2007) Nickname: "The Rolling Caterpillar" (Same as the 1st logo), "The Rolling Caterpillar II" (Since 2008)

Logo: Same as the 1st logo, but since 2008, except it is re-created in better CGI. As of 2008 to 2013, the rolling caterpillar still smiles while the new Baby Einstein logo has appeared or the camera zooms out differently. Since 2007, there is the same logo but the logo is now in a box with the Disney logo in, and the words "the" and "company" is removed.

Later Variant: Since 2013, the logo is seen without the Disney logo, due to the fact that Disney sold Baby Einstein to Kids ll, Inc.

FX/SFX: Same as the 2nd logo, but the rolling caterpillar and the camera were redesigned since 2008.

Music/Sounds: Same as the 2nd logo, but instead of an old voiceover, there is a new voiceover like in the 1st logo, but since 2008, the theme was followed by Julie Aigner Clark reading "To learn more about Baby Einstein developmental products, and for tips of how to create moments of discovery with your baby, visit babyeinstein.com. Enjoy the show." or "To learn more about Baby Einstein developmental and entertainment products, and for tips of how to create moments of discovery with your baby, visit babyeinstein.com.
