Advantages: Attractive to look at.

Disadvantages: Falls down., Plastic hurts baby's head., Expensive

This was one of those items that you see and simply must have. It was top of my baby wish list and ...... it was a disaster buy!!

This attractive looking toy is a playmat that has 2 arches over it with toys that hang down. The mat is beautiful, it has lots of lovely bright picures of fish and flowers on it and also a black and white pattern that fascinates newborns. The mat is quite narrow meaning that once baby can roll he is straight off it. Also down the side of the mat are strips of thick platic that are used to attach the arches to. This plastic used to catch my son's head.

As for the gym, I found that as soon as by baby hit it the whole thing collapsed onto him. There was no chance of him being hurt as they are made from material but I spent all day fixing them back upright! Once he could kick with any force it was game over.

The toys haging from the gym were platic and attached with velcro. They look like some sort of strange flower with eyes.

This toy then converts into a tunnel for a more mobile baby. The mat fits between the arches to provide a canopy and the toys hang from the entrance and exit. I cannot comment on this as I lost my temper with it well before my son could crawl and packed it away.

This looks like a wonderful gym but believe me I bought the Toys R Us gym for under a tenner and it was much better. Anyway if you still want one of these you could buy mine for a fiver at the car boot on Sunday.

Thanks for reading.
