Advantages: soft, foldable, attractive, bright,toys included
Disadvantages: not so easy to clean, toys quite high

We brought this particular play gym as it was much softer than most others we had looked at. Which is particularly important for new born babies & ours slept on hers quite a lot ! Also this one had several toys included with it, which saved buying extra. Its also very bright & eye catching, our little girl was mesmerised by all the colours. And for those short on space, it folds away, great for taking to the grandparents ! There was a couple ...
...were able to overcome. We found the felt type material wasn't so easy to clean after a 'baby accident' ! It was wipeable, but didn't come completely clean. Another issue was that the toys were quite high for our little girl t reach, she got quite frustrated at times. But generally we found this a good product to use. ... Read review

Advantages: Bright colours, different sounds
Disadvantages: Expensive

When we bought this toy for our unborn baby we thought it was the best thing ever invented - bright colours, loads of different noises and a large area for it to play on. We brought our little girl home from hospital full of excitement about her playing on her new toy and guess what - she cried and cried when we placed her on the mat!! There was simply too much going on for the little lamb! However two months down the line she started to really ...

Advantages: Encourages child to reach out for thing - improves hand eye co-ordination.
Disadvantages: Clips could be more user friendly

My mother bought this baby gym for our son (under strict instruction from me!) as a birth present. I liked the idea that it was multi-functional and would adapt easily with your growing child and therefore be excellent value for money. We started off with the top section the baby gym fixed to the side of our sons cot, but found that he wasn't really interested in it as it was too high for him to focus on properly, as it only attached to the top ...
...it to the legs and have our son laying under the hanging play items. He wasn't really surewhat to do at first, but was definately encouraged by the fact that if he hit or kicked the toys hanging down the music started to play and the lights started to flash. He soon realised that it was his actions of hitting the toys that made the lights and music work and then deliberately started to aim his hands and feet towards the toys. It is recomended that ...

Advantages: You can take the animals off the play structure and use them elsewhere
Disadvantages: The surrounding play structure is far too low

This Tiny Love gym was bought for me when my baby was born. In the first month she HATED it. In the second month she either laid on it for about 3 minutes before screaming ,or realised I was about to place her on the mat as I lowered her and started screaming before I had a chance to. She is now 3 months old and now finds it tolerable. I'm going to pack it away and buy another make. She found it boring and the structure is so low that the animals ... Read review
