Entertains baby and buys free time for parents, May 8, 2008
Length:: 0:25 Mins
Our son has been in love with this mobile since he was about 4 weeks old. (He's now 12 weeks.) He started off wriggling around to the music, then began staring at the moving shapes, and now smiles, shouts, and coos at his little animal friends as they come and go. Because the volume can be set to silent, he has even fallen asleep while watching it a few times, although he's generally so excited to see it that he's more entertained than soothed. (In the video the volume was turned all the way down so that we could hear the baby.) By the way-- the mobile no longer starts automatically at the loudest setting; this seems to have been a problem with earlier models. Also, even though there is no "music only" option, it's easy to remove the bar with the rotating parts from the rest of the assembly, leaving just the music box attached to the crib. This allows you to play just the music (although it leaves you with the problem of figuring out where to store the rest of the mobile in the meantime).
As parents, we have a great time watching him having so much fun-- but we also LOVE the fact that this mobile enables us to leave our son safe and happy in his crib for 10-20 minutes while we go do the laundry, eat dinner, take a shower, etc. We gave this mobile as a gift to a family member before we had our own baby, and she said she wept when she had to take it down (once her son had started pulling himself up in his crib) because she had just lost a good chunk of free time from each day. Yes, we love spending time with our kids, but to preserve our own health and hygiene, this mobile has been a lifesaver.
