Tiny Love Symphony In Motion Mobile

Advantages: A nice change of tunes!
Disadvantages: Batteries need replacing fairly often

...the Symphony -in-Motion Mobile, by Tiny Love. It was by far the most colourful one in the shop and I loved the animal characters with googly eyes. It also had the most varied tunes , and the most exciting things to look at on it. I didn't really want to be driven bananas by one annoying tune for months on end! The particular one we purchased has a jolly frog, bird and monkey, dangling from rotating discs with a black spiral in the middle. The discs ...
...`````````````````` What Tiny Love say about the Symphony -in-motion Mobile ```````````````` After looking at the Tiny Love Website, I have discovered that there are various differnt types of Symphony-in-Motion mobiles. The one we have has animals on it. A monkey, a bird and a frog. This was the only variety of Tiny Love mobile that was on sale in the shop we were in. The Tiny Love Website will be able to help with stockists. This is what Tiny Love ... Read review

Advantages: great fun for scarlett, stimulating, visually bright, aids development
Disadvantages: the novelty will wear of, a little flimsy

...time with the music. Tiny love has a range of soft developmental toys which can be viewed at www.tinylove.com. This mobile cost £34.99 and can be brought from mother care and I’m afraid I don’t know of any other stores. We’re glad that we brought this for her. I think the booklet made it sound a little bit like this mobile will make your child a genius. However, I think that at nearly four months Scarlett has reached the stage when she needs more ...

Advantages: Battery powered, no more winding
Disadvantages: No flashing lights for bedtime

...amused. Fear not, however, the Tiny Love Symphony In Motion Mobile takes batteries, which means you need only press one button for fifteen whole minutes of peace and quiet, save the choice of three classical tunes that it plays. I have to admit it seems rather psychedelic, and possibly disturbing to adult eyes, I found that I couldn't watch it for more than five minutes without being concerned that the little animals were staring at me, but it seems ...
...box which clamps with a large plastic screw to the side of the cot. This contains the batteries (three AAs), a speaker, two sound options - reasonable and loud, an on/off button and three music choice buttons. You can choose from Mozart, Beethoven or Bach, each has different qualities which, allegedly, stimulate different part of the brain. I find that Beethoven is good for when she's playing and Bach good for when she's going to sleep. It will automatically ... Read review

Advantages: put my daughter to sleep without fail since she was newborn; she loved playing with it when she was older; it plays nice, memorable melodies; bright, eye-catching design that most babies will be attracted to
Disadvantages: None - may seem a bit costly at first, compared to other more traditional (or boring!!) mobiles

Bought this for my daughter 3.5 years ago when she was just a few days old and have never regretted buying it since. During her first year of life, this mobile would soothe her to sleep every day and night. My daughter suffered from colic and was crying a lot more than usual, hence anything that could help us put her to sleep for a couple of hours was godsend! This mobile comes in 4 varieties - Geometric shapes, Animals, Farmyard animals, or like ...
...daughter's is the Animals version. All versions are manually-operated except for the one shown in the picture above, which is remote-control operated. I'm not sure if the other manually-operated ones are still selling in the UK, but according to the manufacturer's American website, all versions are still in production. You can view all the mobile's versions on the manufacturer's American website at : http://www.tinylove.com/developmentaltoys.aspx ... Read review

Advantages: Entertaining for 15 minutes at a time, introduces classical music, remote controlled
Disadvantages: push buttons were faulty on my original mobile, expensive

I originally bought this mobile when I was about 5 weeks pregnant, I had seen it beforehand and had heard of the benefits of classical music on babies. The mobile plays 15 minutes each of Mozart (for cognitive development), Beethoven ( for stimulating) and Bach (for relaxing) and can contribute to a baby's spatial, logical-mathematical, linguistic and emotional intelligences according to the booklet that comes with the mobile. I actually bought it ...
...and the music. My little boy has always loved looking at his mobile and I find that I can put him down under it and go for a shower in the morning and he will be happy. I don't find it useful at night time though, because of the bright colours and many movements, it tends to keep him awake. You can however remove the animals and just have the music box attached to the cot, this actually has a volume switch with two settings so you can turn it down ... Read review

Advantages: Volume Control (including mute), Fits cots with chunky end panels.
Disadvantages: Heavier. C cell batteries. Expensive.

...I owned the Symphony in Motion Farmyard Animals mobile, but the motor stopped working so I returned it. They (babycity - who were very helpful about the return and refund) weren\'t expecting new stock for 2 weeks, so, as I use the mobile to babysit while I shower, I nipped out and bought this one instead. This is very similar to the symphony in motion mobile. The main diffrerences (that aren\'t obvious from the product descriptions) are: 1) This one has a light, so it is quite a bit heavier, and takes C batteries (rather than AA) 2) This one has several volume settings, including mute (Hooray! And I mean Hooray Hooray Hooray!) though it always starts at the same volume so you have to adjust it every time. 3) Different composers - and the Debussy tune comes with \'nature sounds\' which drive me crackers. I actually... Read review
