Fisher-Price Colourful Carnival Spacesaver Jumperoo

Product Information

We are getting our little one this activity center. There’s one at his in-home daycare that he’s doing really well on!” Jumpers provide great fun for babies and a break for their parents. They allow your child to play independently, see the world from a new perspective, and often include some new toys. Rolling down the stairs: Children who roll down stairs in baby walkers, the most common type of injury, can suffer broken bones and even severe head injuries. My little one loves his Rainforest Jumperoo. He goes totally bonkers in it, jumping and squealing. He only usually lasts for 15 to 20 minutes in it, but do you know how long that is in Mom time?"

Also, if your baby falls asleep in the activity center, move them to a flat, firm surface as soon as possible, following the American Academy of Pediatrics' (AAP) safe sleep recommendations. Opens a new window What to look for when buying an activity center Wherever you are, your little one will delight in the bouncing seat and toys that spin, rattle, and move every which way. There’s also an included mirror and book for added fun. The seat, which adjusts to three heights, is machine-washable, too — ideal for inevitable mishaps, like diaper blowouts. Some activity centers extend their useful period by transforming into play tables or small craft tables, which will last through the toddler and preschool years.To create this roundup of best baby jumpers, our experts at the Good Housekeeping Institute tested a variety of both freestanding jumpers and those that hang in doorways. We looked at the top brands and gave preference to jumpers that have been on the market for enough time to get month-over-month reports. We examined 15 baby jumpers in our Lab and sent those same jumpers to parents for use with more than 10 energetically bouncing babies at home. Activity centers of all kinds have another perk for parents and caregivers: Since your baby is largely contained, they afford you the opportunity to multitask — to cook or do the laundry, for example, while your baby plays. But it’s worth noting: You should always follow the safety recommendations of the model you buy and never leave your child unattended or unsupervised. Safety recommendations for baby activity centers generally state that:

If your child has special needs, you may be looking for a jumper that outlasts the baby years. Often kids with special needs will continue to use equipment like carseats, strollers or even jumpers for long past the usual timeframe, making it harder to find the appropriate sized products. The Jolly Jumper doesn’t include any toys or other features, so if your baby needs more entertainment this might not be for them. It also doesn’t have a bumper, so there is always the possibility that they could bump into the door frame if they are really bouncing around. Otherwise, this jumper is really sturdy, well-made and great for babies who love to jump. Jolly Jumper With StandThis activity center is solid and sturdy, as well as heavy and on the large side. It doesn't collapse for storage. Since this jumper comes with a stand it’s a little bulky, which some parents might not like. But if you have the space, the easy assembly makes it possible to take it down and store it out of the way at times when your baby isn’t using it. Like the original Jolly Jumper, it also doesn’t include any toys, so it’s a great option if your baby will be using it just for jumping and you want them to get a little exercise. What we like about the Baby Einstein Journey Of Discovery Jumper is the rotating music playing globe of the world along with the easy to adjust height settings. How to Find the Best Option Although these baby products are designed to help babies develop stronger leg muscles, some experts suggest that overuse of jumperoos can actually hinder your child’s development and delay walking.
