The dialogue reproduces infantile idiom even as it parodies the baby talk of adults, and a touching, didactic scene involving a baby blanket that's become the object of sibling rivalry may appeal to a broad age range.
Lisa Alspector, Chicago Reader

Those unfamiliar with the series will have a chance to marvel at Klasky and Csupo's refreshing innovations: their affectionate play with traditional presentations of 'sweet' baby behaviour and 'pretty' toddler looks.
Wally Hammond, Time Out

Although it works on two levels, one thing makes it work for any age: the sense of the id unloosed.
Jeff Millar, Houston Chronicle

It's a fun-filled oddity among G- rated animated movies. But some folks may conclude that the babies' creators have gone off the deep end to satisfy a '90s sensibility that favors edgy entertainment.
Peter Stack, San Francisco Chronicle
