Enjoy Tummy Time With Your Little One
Tummy time is an important developmental activity for newborns. During the first months of life, babies learn how to move their bodies and gain the necessary physical strength for rolling over, sitting up, and crawling. Besides the physical benefits of tummy time, giving your infant playtime on his belly will help minimize any flat spots on his head that may have come from sleeping on his back. The Spin and Explore offers both you and your baby a soft and safe space to make tummy time a pleasurable part of everyday activities. Baby can gently and comfortably spin around on her tummy, stretching and strengthening her upper and lower body while enjoying lots of squeaky, crinkly, tactile fun. After your baby can sit up on her own, you can remove the spinner and let her take advantage of the other visually and physically stimulating features, like the peek-a-boo leaf flap and mirror. Fun, Innovative Design
Winner of Redbook's "Hottest Toys of the 2007 Holiday Season," and a Toy Insider 2007 Top 20 pick, the Spin and Explore provides an innovative platform with a unique shape and rotating motion to encourage exploration and give babies the confidence they need to try new things. As his coordination grows, baby is more likely to want to attempt new skills--like twirling around on his tummy to visit his garden pals for tactile play, interaction that motivates him to hold his head up, use his legs, and spin on his stomach. The Spin and Explore can be used with or without the platform and also includes little loops to attach other toys to the play mat. It measures 28.0 x 5.5 x 28.0 inches (WxHxD) and comes with a garden-theme play mat, spinning platform, and ladybug platform cover. It also includes a 90 day limited warranty.

Great help for tummy time |
|
I bought this hoping it would help the little one enjoy tummy time more. He hated being on his tummy and face planted whenever we tried. Because he has a mild case of torticollis, the pediatrician emphasized how important tummy time was so he could strengthen and stretch his neck. This item has made tummy time easier on him and has help strength his neck quite a bit. It's nice because he is up a little higher and is forced to lift his head. The only draw back, which is noted in almost every review, is the fact that the mat doesn't stay put. While on it, he will grab the toys or mat itself which will cause it to scrunch up. Overall, I think it was a great buy since it's helped so much with his neck. |

Great for Special Needs Kids, too! |
|
My daughter has cerebral palsy and this toy has helped build her neck and back muscles quite a bit. She also seemed to have fun and it didn't seem like exercise to her at all. It did take some getting used to, but by about the 4th or 5th time, she was loving it. |

Mixed feelings |
|
my 4mo old loves the mat and cover...yet doesn't love the spin feature. He's ok -not great- with tummy time and I was hoping this would help. Sometimes it works for a few minutes, other times not at all. It also seems to bother his tummy a bit- can be a plus if you just can't get that burp out...after he comes up from this there it is! But again, he loves staring at the mat while sitting on my lap...or even if i hold it up for him to play with he is excited...would love it more if he used the spinner... |

Awesome for tummy-time haters |
In order to get my baby into the "front to play, back to sleep," I bought this toy. My daughter HATED tummy-time, but the spinner elevated her, so tummy-time became bearable for a couple minutes, then 5 minutes, then 10 minutes, etc. Two days ago, she was happily on the spinner for 20 mins. However, yesterday, she started turning over, so we removed the spinner. The mat is fun too, lots of contrasting colors to catch baby's attention!

Nice idea, but not very practical |
|
I loved the idea of this product, and could not wait to get it home. Once I put it on the floor, my daughter was quite interested in the different colored "petals" and the different fabrics and textures, but the twirling ladybug just did not work out. When she was young enough to need tummy time, the ladybug was very uncomfortable, and she would cry after less than a minute of being in it. It didn't matter if she was gently spinning or not, she wanted nothing to do with it. We took the ladybug off (hooray that it's not attached!) and she loved the mat. Now that she can hold her head up easily and is old enough to start scooting around, she's more interested in the ladybug, but it's not a tummy-time toy for her anymore. Without the ladybug spinner it's just like any other play mat - bright, colorful with different textures and toys to play with, but it's a bit smaller than standard. I'd recommend going with a normal-sized mat and skipping the awkward ladybug. |
