so cute!,
i love this! unlike a lot of gyms it doesnt have obnoxious music, jangly noises, flashing lights, or any of the other things that often annoy me in baby-entertaining items.
there are nice surprises in the mat– crinkly sounding leaves, a soft kind of velour-ish leaf, a flower that squeaks if you press on it, a mirror in the trunk of the tree (very nice for tummy time!)
the hanging toys seem pretty high quality, and are very cute! the owl makes a chiming noise and the apple is velvety to touch and has a mirror in it. my son also seems to like the pillow that comes with it, especially for tummy time.
the only thing i wish was different was the thickness– i would like a little more cushion in it.

Best looking activity gym.,
I picked this activity gym over the hundreds available on the market mainly because Amazon states under its material type as cotton. I really try to avoid purchasing baby products that are polyester. When I received it, it’s 100% polyester, which is why I took two stars off. But I kept it because out of all the activity gyms out there, I think this is the one that is the least of an eyesore in my living room. My daughter absolutely loves laying on this and staring at the animals. She actually did her “tummy time” the longest she’s ever done with this. It gives me 20 to 30 minutes a day to get things done and she even fell asleep on it once. Overall, I think when it comes to picking activity gyms, it’s more the parent’s preference than the baby’s. Babies aren’t too picky about how things are designed and can be amused by the simplest things. Parents like to “overstimulate” their babies with the toys that light up and play music and it’s really not necessary to keep a baby happy.

Love It,
I love this activity mat. It is so cute and modern. The baby loves it and it looks good in my house; it’s not to crazy colored for my taste. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because you can’t fold it up. I had the Fisher Price Jungle one and you could fold up the bars so it wasn’t open, and easy to store. This one, if I have to put it away for any reason, I would have to take it apart. It is easy to do so, but kind of a pain in the butt.
