Designed for use from birth up to five months, the Fisher-Price Precious Planet Two-in-One Projection Mobile is unique among mobiles, because it combines music, plush animal figurines, and movement with a soft projection of light. Both entertaining and soothing, the Projection Mobile is perfect for playtime and rest time. It includes a remote control and requires two "AAA" and four "D" batteries.

Fun, Colorful Design with Music and Lights to Keep Your Baby Entertained
The Projection Mobile features a colorful animal-themed design, sweet music, and a fascinating light show that dances up above. The delicate canopy keeps images close, making it easy for young babies to focus. And when your baby grows, you can remove the mobile and project the show directly on the ceiling, with music or sounds playing along to add to the fun.

Four Plush Characters Promote Brain Development
To help your baby learn to focus and to support healthy visual development, the Projection Mobile includes four plush animal toys with spinning antics that are sure to delight and calm your baby. A teal whale, white polar bear, green alligator, and yellow lion keep your baby interested with their detailed designs and friendly faces. Babies will want to reach up to touch one or all, and parents can join in the fun by naming each animal and explaining where it lives.

Three Musical Settings to Match Your Baby's Moods
As your baby watches the animal antics, you can choose up to a full 20 minutes of music to either soothe or engage her senses and to help develop her auditory skills. Customize your baby's experience and match her mood by choosing from classical lullabies from Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart, nature and ocean sounds, or heartbeat and white noise womb sounds.

The Projection Mobile measures 23.5 x 17.0 x 18.0 inches (WxHxD) and weighs just five pounds. It attaches securely to any crib with an improved, stable mechanism, and it comes with a remote control. To operate, the mobile requires four "D" batteries, while the remote requires two "AAA" batteries.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product! May 2, 2009

By Kimberly R. Shaw

We moved our baby girl into her crib at 2 months, and it was also her first night with her projection mobile. She loved it! She's 3.5 months now, and she still talks to her animals every night as she's falling asleep. We always put her to bed while she's still awake, and she falls asleep talking. This is one of the top 5 baby items I wouldn't want to be without!

1.0 out of 5 stars Great, if you can make it last longer than a few weeks August 17, 2009

We purchased this for our newborn daughter and in the beginning I loved it. It calmed her down for bedtime and was a great part of our bedtime routine. 2 months after I bought it, the motor burned out-the mobile stopped turning and the projection stopped moving RIGHT BEFORE BEDTIME!!! Great timing! I thought I had just bought a lemon, so I purchased another on the next day. 4 weeks later it did the same exact thing, right before bedtime again. I don't know if it's some cruel joke the company is playing on me, but I'm not laughing. I did find out that Fisher Price offers a one year warranty on their items, but it's still a pain as they won't send me a new one until they get my broken item, so the entire process will take about 4-6 weeks.

I bought this in hopes of soothing my baby at bedtime. I chose it because of the positive reviews stating it held babies' interest so well; and that's part of my problem. I've only been able to use this mobile a few times because it really does hold my baby's interest. He is mesmerized by it. When I first bought it, he was not yet sleeping through the night and we were using a classical music CD to soothe him. When I tried to put him to sleep I turned on the mobile and he'd stare at it then start to cry as soon as it stopped, even after restarting it.

My other issue is the volume. The lowest setting is a lot louder than the CD we had playing before and the music stops suddenly at the 20 minute limit, jarring baby awake. There is also no way to use this mobile without music or other sounds. Unless you remove the batteries for the speaker (and I'm not sure if there are separate batteries for them), you are stuck with the noise.

Now, I only use the mobile when I have to distract my baby for a few minutes to do something around the house.

EDIT: Now that my baby is a little older, he drifts off while watching the mobile and it is fast becoming the preferred way to get him to sleep... with a little help. The mobile itself won't make him drowsy, but it will distract him from wiggling too much and wanting to fuss, which wakes him up.
