LeapFrog Learn & Groove Activity Station

...AND PRICE ***************************** The Leapfrog Learn and Groove is brand new for 2005 and was only available in most of the shops from March. They retail at around £80 and are available from places like Mothercare and Argos. I bought mine from Argos online which cost me £85 including postage and packing. This does seem a little steep but one month on I'm already realising it was worth every penny. REASON FOR PURCHASE ****************************** ...
...Swing which was only usable until she was six months old so I was looking for some kind of replacement sit in toy to take it's place from this age upwards. Not a fan of babywalkers (due to the risks associated and the fact that I want to keep my baby away from most things, her moving around this house to me would be a complete nightmare!) my choice was very limited. Then I saw activity centres in the Mothercare catalogue. These are excellent devices ...

Review of LeapFrog Learn & Groove Activity Station

My sister in law bought this for my twins for christmas, I thought it was a bit expensive to be buying them but I didnt argue and now I am sooo glad I didnt. My children love this activity station, They go in it at least once everyday and they have so much fun. We got ours from Early learning centre and it cost around £80, which is quite expensive but definately worth every penny, I owe my sister in law big style for buying the babies this. ---Assembly--- ...
...together and it took them around ten minutes - it comes wth easy to follow instructions. The station requires three AA bateries to function, I changed the batteries mid-march for the first time, which I think is very good to say it has been used at least twice every day since christmas! There are three height potions as your child grows, the height is very easy to adjust. ---What it does--- Your child sits in the activity station like sitting ...

Review of LeapFrog Learn & Groove Activity Station

We bought the Leap Frog Activity Station as an early Christmas present for our almost 4 month old son quite recently and I have to say it is our most valued item for him the house! The station itself looks a bit like a traditional sit-in baby walker but it's not. It is a stationery activity centre in which the baby sits/stands in the middle and is surrounded by an array of things to play with. It has five items/toys for your baby to play with: ...
...Record Player - Microphone - Song Book Baby can get at all of these because the seat in the middle rotates 360 degrees. The station has two modes of play so when you flip the song book over it changes from music to learning. So for example the piano keys either say the numbers and colours when you press them or play a specific type of music such as salsa. The record player works by the baby pulling down the record players arm across the record ...

...first Christmas and found the LeapFrog Learn and Groove DJ Activity station - ideal as both her parents are DJs. It is a lovely activity station with 5 basic toy elements - record player, number piano, microphone, mirror ball and juke box which I will explain individually shortly. Alex hates lying down now and wants to be upright all the time - a bit of a pain when you are trying to do other things such as the chore that is housework - and this ...
...a quick telephone call to Leapfrog I have been tol they will send a replacement out as soon as possible although there may be a bit of a wait. Excellent customer service. Next Addition: THe replacement microphone arrived last week (they did say it would be a bit of a wait) and with a couple of pinches taking the old one out and a push in of the new one and the learn and groove is as good as new. Alex now has a renewed interest in the learn and ...

My dad bought this for our 7 month old girl's Christmas. She loves it! Unpacking and building*************** The 'donut' as i call it is very easy to set up, just click the three legs into the top part and thats the main bit done. Click all the music sections into their spaces on the top and hook the fabric seat onto the frame. Bingo! All set. Oh... batteries, three AA is what you will need, they are not supplied which was a bit of a bummer. If ...
...and you find it doesnt work have a wiggle at the music sections that you had to plug in yourself, if one isnt plugged in right it wont work. What's it do then?****************** First you have a yellow and blue microphone, made of rubber and plastic it's great for babies to have a good chew on. As they tug and pull it either sings 'ba ba doo wha' or 'sing it baby' depending on which setting the 'donut' is on. Next we have a disco ball which baby ...

Review of LeapFrog Learn & Groove Activity Station

When my son turned 4 months old he started to get very frustrated because he was becoming more aware of the world around him, but wasn't able to participate in the way that he wanted! He hated lying on his back at this point; I would have to walk him around the house shaking toys at him, and I was running out of ideas. Then I found the Learn & Groove. This toy is absolutely fantastic. It is a complete playcentre for your baby that is suitable from ...
...in the picture, it is a doughnut shape and baby sits in a soft padded seat in the centre. The product has 3 height settings and can be adjusted as your baby grows, giving them the option to sit or stand as they play. The seat swivels so that baby can access all of the toys once they figure out how to move themselves with their legs. The upper ring of the doughnut features the toys - a piano with 5 keys, a DJ deck, a microphone, a disco ball and the ...

Advantages: Allows baby to see the world from a new angle, bouncy, lots of music and noises Disadvantages: Expensive A must have buy for any busy mummy!

Review of LeapFrog Learn & Groove Activity Station

This toy is excellent and we were lucky enough to get it new in a 'sale' for £55. I would suggest parents buy this from as young an age as possible or that they feel comfortable with (around 4 months) as it will entertain baby and stop them getting bored or frustrated with lack of movement. It certainly has a short life span for such an expensive toy because as soon as baby can stand/walk alone it is no good. It gives 360 degree mobility and has ...

Review of LeapFrog Learn & Groove Activity Station

The grand parents bought this for our little boy for Christmas when he was 5 months old. He absolutely loves it. We call it the UFO. It gives my partner time to do jobs as he can't get out of it. The other thing we have notice is that it has helped him to get stronger and his concentration has got better from using this. He would start off only 5-10 minutes in this before he would moan and lean to the side. Now he can stay in it well over half an hour and he supports his head and back better. It is not cheap but worth every penny. ...

Review of LeapFrog Learn & Groove Activity Station

We got this after seeing our nephew in a similar thing. Our little boy didn't know what to do with it at first but soon it was the best thing we ever bought for him. He had outgrown his rocker but we had so much conflicting advice on baby walkers that we settled on this. It was pricey for us but totally worth it. There aren't too many knooks n crannies so it wasn't too hard to clean and although there are only 4 or 5 main items to play with, our ...
...each new stage of development. For some reason he loved the page that turns from numbers to letters and would flip the page over and over... The main issue we had was that he pulled the microphone out of the base when he got older and stronger, Then he snapped the little arm on the record player but he is really strong... Not sure if this was a problem to anyone else. You WILL find yourself singing "ABC duh duh duh da duh... A B C!" over and over ...

this is my fold away baby sitter, when my baby was old enough to sit up she came with me where ever i needed to clean, she even play in it if i needed to have a bath or shower. it is very entertaining and educational. my daugters first word was ba- ba-do-ha one of the entertaining phrases the activity station sings, it is very musical and has 2 settings one a-b-c and he other is do-ray-me. it sings the a-b-c and my daughter already knows the basic ...
