Lamaze Play & Grow Morgan The Monkey

This fun and friendly cheeky monkey named Morgan was gifted to my son quite some time ago, and he is still hanging around. Although I adore monkeys I’m not quite sure about bright blue for a monkey, however I’m not the target audience for this toy, so what do I know. This friendly primate is suitable from birth onwards. His recommended retail price is £9.99, however he can be found cheaper if you shop around. Lamaze are an award winning reputable toy manufacturer that produce activity toys that are suitable from birth. They have a vast assortment of bright and colourful soft toys that are ... more

We were given this toy as a present for the birth of our little baby boy and it or he, should I say, currently hangs on our car seat. It's one of the smaller Lamaze toys that you can get but I like the size as it works perfectly on the car seat and is small enough to dangle in my little boys line of view when it is in front of him so I think that is the main thing. Lamaze produce a wide range of baby and toddler toys that are some of the best around in my opinion and are designed to be good for their educational development as well as full of playtime fun. Lamaze say that they enlighten babies ... more

I bought my 6 month old this Lamaze Morgan the Monkey toy from kiddicare for around £9.99. I picked it out as it is so bright and colourful and my son instantly loved it in the shop when I gave it to him to hold in the pram! This monkey is quite a large toy, about 30cm long, and it has a clip on the top to hang or clip onto things such as your pram etc. I find that when I hang it on the pram at the top so it dangles in front of my baby it is too big and long, you can't see his face in the pram, the monkey is in the way, although its a nice toy to hang in a playmat gym, where your baby lies and ... more

**Firstly, before I start my review I would like to point out that the toy I am reviewing seems to be a slightly different version to the one pictured. I have no idea if it is the more recent or older version but the name is the same & the version we have is still available to buy online too** When my son was born, one of the many gifts that he received was a Lamaze Play & Grow monkey from his Nan. Being blue in colour I think it seemed an obvious choice for her first grandson. We have had several Lamaze toys now and, despite it being a brand I knew very little of prior to having my son (when ... more

Morgan the Monkey is another excellent baby toy from Lamaze, the company that seems to do no wrong. High quality products that focus on motor functions and simple sounds and behaviourist methods are what Lamaze is all about, and this product is no different. Morgan is a blue monkey with a big head. Somewhere inside of him is a squeaky part that requires only the smallest amount of shaking to activate. It makes our 11 month old son giggle whenever it squeaks, and although Morgan is not his favourite toy, it's one of many we have that please him. While not as wide ranging in terms of stimuli as ... more
