This gym comes with three arches, making it different from most other play centers, which typically feature four arches. Three arches allow for easier access to your baby, so you can pick him up or position him comfortably on the large, circular mat without interrupting his fun.
Fun Toys, Textures, and Sounds Stimulate Your Baby's Growing Brain
The Musical Playtime Gym features two soft pancake character panels, including a monkey with a crinkly leaf and a lion with felt grass. These panels offer interesting textures for your baby to explore and easily attach via their Velcro backs. To help introduce the concept of cause and effect, music is activated whenever your baby bats at the plastic polar bear--for extra delight, his nose lights up too! There's also a large plastic sunshine mirror that can be attached overhead or directly to the arches, and two each of fabric clouds and stars hang from the mirror like a mini mobile. Additionally, other repositionable toys include three connecting teethers--a red crab, purple octopus, and green turtle.
Supports Tummy Time Exercise
Daily time spent on the tummy is vital to your baby's healthy physical development. This gym provides a soft place for your baby to practice lifting his head. To encourage him, you can link the polar bear and two pancake panels together to create a three-character panel with music and lights to motivate and entertain.
Compact and Portable Enough to Take Anywhere
Fully assembled, the Musical Playtime Gym measures approximately 38 x 20 x 38 inches (WxHxL) and is lightweight enough to move from room to room or to take with you on picnics or to Grandma's house. Everything folds up easily inside the mat. To operate, this gym requires three "AA" batteries (not included).

Exactly what we needed,
By
This review is from: Fisher-Price Precious Planet Deluxe Musical Activity Gym (Baby Product)
Our son was born 4 weeks prematurely. Because of this he is behind in several physical milestones. His physical therapists suggested we get a gym like this. We bought this gym last night at WalMart and I just put it together. It is SUPER cute! It was really easy to put together.
The mat is large enough for my son to lie in the middle of it and his big sister (who is 17 months old) to crawl around on. The top of the mat and the fabric that the poles are covered in is a soft fabric that reminds me of a windbreaker, but not nearly so noisy or rough. The bottom of the mat is made so that it won't slide. There are three slits in the mat for the gym poles to go in. They are small enough that you kind of have to maneuver them in, so babies aren't going to be able to get them out or have anything roll around if you're pulling on the poles. There are two loops on each pole, one high and one lower to hang the toys on, so you can adjust the toys for whatever excercise you're working on (ie tummy time, side time, kicking, rolling over) The loops seem to be really sturdy and sewn in really tight. I don't forsee anything pulling them out, not even my daughter whose nickname is "destructo". The toys are SUPER cute. My son has a problem raising his arms when he's lying on his back, but as soon as I put him under the gym he immediately reached up and was playing with the toys. (I don't know if the toys vary)We got a penguin and a monkey that have spinners at the bottom. And then two rubber things for teething that can hang from the hooks. They are really heavy duty, but not too heavy that our little one can't lift them. They are all very brightly coloured. But you can hang anything with rings. The musical bear is so fun. We love noisy toys around here and I've noticed that a lot of the music sounds the same. However, the music on this bear has a calypso beat to kids songs. It's not out of tune like a lot of baby toys. You can set the bear to two volume settings, and unlike a lot of noisy toys, the lower setting really is soft. And the louder setting is not so loud that you have to leave the room to answer the phone. There are also two music settings. One keeps the bear going through all the music. It seems to be about 20 minutes worth of music. The other setting stops the music until you move the circle in the middle of his tummy. Also, the switches are set into the back of the bear and little fingers wouldn't be able to move them. Another thing that I like about the bear is that on the back there is a strap that holds it to the poles. You are able to loosen or tighten the strap with a button on the back. It took me a minute to figure out what the button was for (heaven forbid I read the instructions), so I was pulling on the strap. It really doesn't budge. The mirror above is also really great. My son was reaching for the baby in the mirror before I put any of the toys on. The mirror isn't too fun house looking, and you can hang it from any of the hooks. We didn't get the cloud things to make it a mobile. It might be a difference in packaging from different retailers. The last thing that I like is that the toys around the bottom can hook together so you can still play on the mat when you don't need the gym parts anymore. I love this gym and recommend it to anyone, especially if you have a child with special needs. :)

Fisher-Price Precious Planet All Around Musical Playtime Gym,

This review is from: Fisher-Price Precious Planet Deluxe Musical Activity Gym (Baby Product)
I like the gym. I purchased it for my newborn, now 4 months, but my 2-1/2 one likes it even better (she couldn't stay away from it). The music could have been better selection, even better if we could load our own music. The play mat should be thicker and softer since we have a tile floor. It's a big gym so it does take space. The arches really make it easy to get the baby in and out. I moved the toys around as his interest developed. Baby likes to look at themselves so I fixed the mirror on top like a ceiling and the penguin at the bottom of the arch. He can look at himself and making noise kicking the penguin. When he was a little older he started grabbing the bear and turned the rattle or light on. By the time he learned to sit up and crawl (at 9 month), he lost interest as he sat up taller than it is.

my 8-week old LOVES the mirror, especially when you wiggle it. hasn't mastered the rattle yet, tho.
all the parts of this toy seem safe, too. edit: It's now March 2009, six months later. The play mat has sat unused since the Christmas, because once your kid starts walkin' (around six months) the last thing they wanna do is lay on their backs looking at the same thing they've been lookin' at since birth! Still looks brand new, tho! So keep in mind, while this thing is great, it will only get about six months of use. Everything's washable except the electric-musical-polar-bear (which is hard plastic and easily wiped), so you'll be able to pass this on to the next kid, or a friend or neighbor pretty easily. And yes, he mastered the rattle. :)
