Playnest and Gym Galt

We bought the playnest when baby was a few weeks old as she didn't seem comfortable on the other gym. The playnest is perfect, it semi inflates for newborns and they can be safely propped up on it, it's a lovely place to pop her in and have a chat with her, as she prefers to move freely and doesn't like to be held for too long! It has lots of different textures and sounds, we go around the different animals on it and do the sounds for her, she loves it and is always happy when she is in there. She is three months old and I know I will get lots more use out of it, great value for money.

As others have already said, the playnest itself is wonderful but the overhead gym will not stay up. Being the crafty mum I am ; ) I'm going to get some bendy plastic hose pipes to replace the poles they provide, since LO loves the hanging toys.

Comments from other mumsnetters: "Perfect for popping in a baby that has starting to roll over". "The overhead mobiles keep them amused once they start trying to sit up". "Great for when they are beginning to sit by themselves but are a bit wobbly - instead of landing with a crash on a hard floor - they land on the padded cushions" plus there are "lots of different patterns and textures to amuse them while they're in it". "The most useful item I have for my six month old".

Great value!

A playnest ring is fantastic for when your baby can't quite sit up alone, because you can prop them up. Then when they can sit up, you can pop them in there with a couple of toys if you have to nip to the other room for a minute. Very handy.

The inflateable ring is great as there is lots to look at and different textures to explore. The overhead baby gym however is useless!! The poles are very hard to join together and the slightest tug from your baby pulls them out too so we just removed them and use the ring by itself.

These inflatable rings are well worth the money - perfect for young babies, up to about 6 months, especially when they are starting to sit up but need some support behind them in case of falling. Everyone should have one!

Gives you somewhere else to put your baby and later on doubles as a rescue boat/fort/instrument of balance. Excellent value!

My duaghter loves her tiny love playgym - i can leave her on it for ages & she keeps herself entertained - she's now 6 months but has loved it since she was about 2 weeks.
