Mamas & Papas Lotty Ladybird Playmat & Gym

***LOTTY LADYBIRD PLAYMAT*** We had one of these in the nursery for the very young children who could not yet sit up mainly. However those who could sit up also used the mat to play with the toys. All the children used to love the playmat. I completely forgot about this toy until I went to visit my friend who has a ten week old child. At the moment they don't have many toys but this one is the number one favourite with the baby and the parents. And I have to completely agree not only does it interest babies but adults can be amused too! ~~~The Playmat~~~ The playmat is quite big for a baby therefore giving them a lot of room for the baby to ...  Read the complete review

This brightly coloured playmat has been a permanent feature of our living room for some time now! The playmat has a soft padded surface which is really comfortable on our wooden floors. The mat has various different patterns and textures, and each of the ladybird feet has either crinkly material or a bell inside. One of the ears has a squeaker inside and the other plays a tune when pressed. In the centre hangs a large flower with a mirror underneath, then two hanging ladybirds have smaller mirrors and two hanging caterpillars have a squeaker. The arches are removable and can also be moved out of the way. We were given this playmat second hand by some friends ...  Read the complete review

My son loves his Lotty Ladybird gym. The playmat is pretty thick compared with a lot so it is good if you do not have particularly thick carpets, as it adds some padding. Our carpet in the lounge is thin and I do not like my son to lie on his back on it for long periods. This playmat solves the problem. I think with gyms it really does depend on what your baby likes. Fortunately I have a very chilled out little boy who is happy to entertain himself. He gets a lot out of this gym. However, friends have tried it when they have visited and although their baby has taken an initial interest, if they do not like to lie on their back and play alone, they soon ...  Read the complete review

I love Mamas and Papas baby equipment. When I was pregnant I wanted everything for our baby from Mamas and Papas, I had chosen a neutral theme for the Nursery as we did not know the sex of our baby. I went into M&P to look at the baby gyms and was going to buy the Barnaby Bear gym as it was beige and browns and would have matched our Nursery. However one of my friends pointed out the Lotty Ladybird, and said the colours would be a lot more appealing to a baby. I thought she was right and so we purchased Lotty. It has proven to be a fantastic purchase. The base of the gym is thick padded fabric in the shape of a ladybirds back, on the 6 feet ...  Read the complete review

This is a very nice bright and colurful playgym.It is very soft and very well padded in a nice bright red colour. My baby seems to be very comfortable in it due to the padding however the lush covering is not easy to clean ( a must with a baby)It also comes with la great assortment of toys which can be arranged at various points on the overhead arches. They are all brightly coloured and provide lots of stimulation for your baby and they love to lay and watch them. I found this gym really easy to put up although the velcro on the arch was rather difficult to get to stay in postion. Size wise it is quite a bit bigger than some of the other gyms so takes up more ...  Read the complete review
