Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Turn baby's nursery into a soothing underwater environment! A dancing light pattern of bubbles, fish and swirls projects onto the ceiling, and the light softly glows. Soothing lullabies and ocean sounds play as fishy friends float gently overhead. Inside the crib, baby can press on a squishy pad "fishbowl"! Then as baby grows, the mobile converts for dresser top use, so sweet dreams can continue right into the toddler years!

Product Description

The Ocean Wonders Mobile with Remote Control bathes the entire nursery in a calming environment of underwater soft lights and sounds. The mobile projects moving lights throughout the room. Parents can select from one of 5 selections to play (lullabies and underwater sounds) as the three plush fish characters swim around above. The base has a soft clear front containing water with fish and glitter that swoosh around when the bowl is pressed. Handy remote control means parents can activate everything without disturbing a sleeping baby. The "grow with me" mode allows you to place the mobile on the dresser when the crib years are over, where it will continue to soothe toddlers. Requires 2 "AA" and 4 "D" alkaline batteries, not included.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not just for babies, October 22, 2006

By	Dana (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Fisher-Price Ocean Wonders Mobile with Remote Control (Toy)

I actually bought this product for a teen whose past history makes him quite afraid of the dark. It was suggested we get this mobile because it has a way to set it up on a dresser top, it plays music to cover over the things that go bump in the night, it has soft lighting, and a durable remote so my child can turn it on from under the covers. He was skeptical at first, because he is picky about the quality of his music, but the music is very well done. The lighting has four settings (ceiling show, glow downward which lights the fishies up, both, or neither), the sound has two volume settings, so if we have a particularly noisy night, we can turn up the volume for him. Because it's designed for babies and young children, the parts are durable, and the remote is easy to use, even when he's trembling in a darkened room he can find it, point it the right way, and push the oversized button. The only issues I have are that the remote does sometimes take a few tries to work, and I would have preferred an AC jack, even if I had to go buy a separate AC adapter, instead of it chewing through 4 D batteries. If this thing was designed to sit on a dresser and outlast a child's infant months, it would be nice if they'd thought of other options for power.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is an AWESOME product!!!, August 10, 2006

By	Kawika "honest2u" (San Diego, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Fisher-Price Ocean Wonders Mobile with Remote Control (Toy)

Worth the time and effort to read the manual, pick up 4 D cell batteries, put it together, and start it up. This isn't just for baby. The music and light show are just relaxing for the parents too. My wife, baby, and I all love the product. It is harder than most products to put together...but worth it! Some of these reviewers need to RTFM before trash talking this thing. Last night, our baby was screaming her head off until I swaddled her and turned the mobile on.

I purchased this mobile for my daughter before she was born. I tried several mobiles with my son, and never found one that I liked; either the motor was too noisy, or the songs were annoying. This mobile though, is GREAT!! There are four light settings, 1)light show and mobile-illuminating light, 2) just light show, 3) just mobile-illuminating light, and 4) no lights. You can change the song that plays, just in case you get sick of hearing the same thing over and over again like I do. All of the songs are nice-sounding though, and play for a long time. No tinny music-box sounding noises here. My daughter has slept in her bed every night by herself from just a couple of weeks old, and I have to credit this mobile for a lot of that (as my son refused to sleep in his crib at all). She still, at 20 months, watches the fish light show every night while falling asleep. She still loves to look at the cute stuffed fish too, in fact, "fish" was one of her first words thanks to talking about this mobile every day. I just can't say enough good things about this mobile, and it would be a great addition to any baby's nursery.

As a side note, we have used this mobile just about every night for 20 months and we are getting ready to change the batteries for the second time.

One warning, though not terribly major. We used this mobile in our bedroom for the first 7 months (as our daughter was rooming with us) and every time we changed the channel on our television via the remote control, the mobile would turn on/off. This only happened when the mobile had been turned on or off recently (i.e. it didn't happen if we were using the tv in the middle of the day). Our remote just appeared to be on the same frequency as the mobile.
