Infantino Play Time Activity Center is for 3 months and up. It can be used for traveling (folds up easily) or at home. It is a great educational toy that uses your childs different senses like sound, sight, and texture. The Activity Center consists of four activity-packed sides with a peek-a-boo mirror, put-and-take bird's nest, large water pouch fish tank, and peek-and-see leaves. It is a wonderful toy whether your child is doing tummy time or seated play.

The only thing that I don't like about this toy is the backings of the birds (from the put-and-take bird's nest) are made out of felt. After pulling the birds off of the Velcro so many times, it can rip or thin out.

Our daughter has reflux and hated tummy time. This toy interested her enough to distract her from the discomfort. She went from barely being able to hold her head up on the floor to holding up on both elbows, to reaching out to crinkle the peek-a-boo leaves on the side over the space of two weeks.
This is still a favorite toy even though she is sitting up now. I'm not sure why it is so hard to find in stores - thank god for amazon or we wouldn't have found it.
If your child is having trouble with tummy time or just gets bored and frustrated with it no matter what you do, this is the toy for you!

This item is cute and my child likes it however I feel it's entirely too small to condone a thirty dollar price tag. I got it on sale and I can't see anyone paying more than twenty with shipping for it.

I bought this for my son because he is in PT and needed to increase his tummy time. However, he is less than wowed by this activity center and just rolls off his tummy and away from it whenever I try to get him to play with it. The actual product that I received doesn't even include all of the pieces that are shown in the picture. Don't waste your money!

I bought this set because of its portability and the 4 different sides: a mirror with noisy cat ears, a birds and a nest, a "singing" fish in a bowl, and a hide-and-seek little bugs side. It's indeed very portable.
My son was about 4 months old, so it was for tummy-time, then for sitting-time. My son was first interested only in the mirror, and not for long, while on his tummy. When I bought it, it didn't come with the teethers on the mirror side. Only much later, by 8 months, did he decide to play a little more with it, the ringing fish, discovering the bugs under the leaves... Mostly, he likes to put the birds in the nest - now at 11 months, he actually likes to put them wherever he finds a prospective place for them.
Overall, while it seemed interesting to me, I was expecting more interest from the baby in this set, and I am a little disappointed. I would not buy it again, although we still use it on a regular basis.

I am very disappointed with this item, its really small, and the picture portrays the size totally wrong, we are really unhappy with the item, I could have bought something much nicer from the store for 25.00 much better than this item.

I would not recommend buying this itme.

My son is 3 months and HATED tummy time! I was searching for something to catch his eye to help him enjoy it a bit more. I found this and was willing to try anything to help - plus this had a multi surface and multi age feature. We used this (in conjunction with a Boppy) to see if this would help him stay on his tummy longer and SURE enough it did!! It was so great to see him looking in the mirror and smiling and playing with the goldfish. The other plus is that when tummy time is over and he starts sitting up he can play with the birds and the peek-a-boo sides as well. I also love the fact that it can fold up and go where we go without being big and bulky. Overall I love this and feel it was a great purchase for a desperate Mom during tummy time!

I purchased this when my daughter was 2 months old (now 5 months), and it has yet to engage her significantly. Part of the problem I think is the angle of the sides. Flat on her tummy without pushing up with her arms, she can't see herself in the mirror or the view the activities. If she does lift herself up so she can see things, then her hands aren't available to manipulate the 3 activity sides! She DOES like to push up and look at herself in the mirror, but a crib/floor mirror is half the price and would do that same job.

This product is not worth the money. You can find a better quality toy than this one. It's flimsy and just wasn't what I expected at all. My son just threw it out of his way and never touched it again. He was already 5 months old but I thought this would help him with tummy time beacuse he hated being on his tummy.

Do not buy this, first of all it says "not for children under 3 years" due to choking hazard. I didn't see that but thankfully that is not my issue. However what 3 year old would want to bother with this? This item is pointless and flimsy. My 6 month old had no interest in it and there is not much to it so I don't blame her. It may work for some but for $60 you can by 2-3 other more entertaining items.
