4.0 out of 5 stars A winner with baby and big sister, October 6, 2004

This review is from: Baby Einstein Baby Neptune Carrier Toy Bar (Toy)

When I first brought this home, my almost 3-year-old daughter was attracted to it like a magnet. I think she recognized the tunes from her Baby Eienstein DVDs. She was so enthralled with it that she took it to bed with her that night!

When I was finally able to get it back and give it to the baby, who is 6 months old, she liked it a lot too. She likes the music but also looking at the water part and batting at the fish that dangle down. I've actually been using it in the high chair as a diversion while I get her bottle or food ready. I've also attached it to the side of her crib occassionally and she really likes it there.

I do agree that with other reviewers that it could attach to the infant carrier seats in a better way -- it sits too high up on the handle so that the baby is looking at it from the wrong angle. I ended up attaching it to a different toy bar that suspends in an arch over the right part of the seat and it works great that way.

I have not experienced any issues with leakage (mentioned in another review).

4.0 out of 5 stars So much fun!, September 21, 2004

This review is from: Baby Einstein Baby Neptune Carrier Toy Bar (Toy)

My daughter first saw this a couple months ago at babies r us while we were shopping. She immediately fell in love with it! The music is not loud or obnoxious in any way. She loves to watch the turtle and dolphin bob inside the toy and play with the toys dangling at the bottom.
I was hesitant to get this because I would soon be taking her out of the infant seat and she would be sitting upright. But now I just give it to her to play with on her lap while we are in the car and she still enjoys it.
The only reason I didnt give this 5 stars is because I wish there were a better way to make this toy "grow" with my baby. But she still has a blast with it.
A great toy for the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Safety tip: Don't attach toy bars to car seats, March 16, 2006

This review is from: Baby Einstein Baby Neptune Carrier Toy Bar (Toy)

Those who complain this toy doesn't fit well onto a car seat - it shouldn't be there in the first place, at least not while your child is in a car. Also, it says in car seat manuals that the car seat handle has to be all the way in the down position. Think about it, and it makes sense.

So the problem is not with the toy bar, but with the incorrect way it is being used.
