After reading all the various reviews on the Bright Starts Play Mat, I decided to purchase this for my 3 month old. She likes it, but not as much as some of the babies that get mesmorized by the ladybug! I bought it because we needed more "tummy time" with our baby. It made the dreaded tummy time go very smoothly. My baby liked the colors and the crinkley sounds on the mat. It's very nicely designed and I really like all the options I can create for my baby. The toys and mat itself are of nice quality, and she likes the hold on to the rings, look at herself in the mirror and is using the teething ring right now. Someday, when you're baby's done with it, you'll hand this down to one of your "good" friends!

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful for the 1st Year, September 28, 2010

This review is from: Bright Starts Baby's Play Place Play Mat (Baby Product)

I was excited to receive this playmat as a baby shower gift. I loved the bright colors, assortment of toys, ease of assembly, and its ability to "grow" with baby. We started putting my son in it when he was just a few weeks old, and it was a beloved staple in our nursery until he turned one. When he was pretty immobile, he loved listening to and batting at the bee, grabbing at the other dangling toys, and kicking his feet over the crinkly materials. The mat was great for developing early his abilities to track objects with his eyes, grab objects, and pass objects between his hands. He also tolerated the mat for tummy time and we used it to encourage him to roll over. As he got more mobile, we had to take off the bars and open up the sides of the mat so he could scoot, push up, etc. Towards the end of his first year, the mat became his little play nook--he would push toys and books into the mat, crawl over the side, and sit in it and play/"read".
The only cons are that the toy bars are pretty low compared to some of the other activity mats on the market, and they pretty much have to be removed if you want to open up the sides to give baby some room to roll and crawl around.

We had received this as a shower gift for our first baby, and we couldn't be happier with it! When she was only 1 or 2 months old, she would lie in it, just staring at all of the toys and colors around her. Later, she would bat at everything and try to grab them and put them in her mouth. Now that she is 7 months old, she doesn't use it much anymore, but she still loves the musical bee. I will put it on and place it in her pack and play with her. Overall, this product has great durability, washabilty, and is engaging for a baby.
