Kick and Whirl Carnival Gym Fisher-Price

Comments from other mumsnetters: "This gym has toys to bat at and plays lots of tunes, accompanied by flashing lights". "I like the fact that you can change the angle of the keyboard, so it's suitable when she's lying on her back and also when she's in her door bouncer". "The music is quite complex so won't drive you too crazy". "It seems to help hand-eye co-ordination a lot" and "it later converts to a 'piano' for toddlers".

This is probably the most irritating toy I have bought. The music is very annoying and the 'off' position is difficult to select with one hand! It is also difficult to move from the 'baby' position to the toddler setting, and requires a lot of self assembly.

Despite its hideous plastic apearance and the fact that it takes up a good deal of floor space, this toy is by far one of my 17 week old son's favourites. The kick activated gym is simple and yet he never tires of it. The only downside is there is no mat to this gym, but I use a lambskin rug which fits underneath just fine. 7/10
