Ugh long reviews are the worst! If you want to know if this toy is awesome—IT IS. BUT for those of you who want to know how awesome it is—read on :)
This is so dang cute!! We bought this when my little guy was 4mos and couldn't quite touch the floor. We improvised and put some things underneath so he can reach and it is the cutest thing watching him figuring out his mechanics. It’s now part of our daily, morning exercises and he gets giddy to get in it! And he is so proud when he takes steps! It encourages him to use different muscles and independence. I also like that I can have some time to coach him in front and motivate him to walk and play as opposed to having to balance him myself and not be able to see all his smiles and reactions. So worth it!
UPDATE: my son is almost 7months and he has taken off in this thing! He can go round and round for what seems like forever. It’s been awesome to see him go from not being able to touch the floor to running; and not being able to spin the ball or move the gadgets, to now being able to do so! I also put things in his reach so when he goes by he can grab it.
It is AMAZING for when I need to do anything and have my hands free. When I’m cooking in the front, doing laundry, outside on the porch or just relaxing I just bring his toy along or I just set him in it and he is perfectly happy. It’s so light weight I don’t even have to take it apart to move it.
One thing this has greatly encouraged is independent play. It’s interesting, because this toy is so engaging, that it’s obvious when he wants to be left alone and do his own thing, or if he wants us to play along or if he wants out.
It’s amazing—don’t hesitate. The 2 base pieces don’t quite go smoothly, and you need a long skinny screwdriver that could probably get at the dollar store, for the battery piece, but all this is a total non issue—especially once you see how much fun your kid will have. It’s just common sense, figure it out, make it work. If you can’t figure this out theeen Yikes.
