Best Toys

There are a few essentials that you need to have on hand when your baby comes home from the hospital for the first time:  clothes, diapers, blankets, and the Baby Einstein Seek and Discover Activity Gym.  This bright, cheerful activity mat provides fun and stimulation for newborns and older babies, and combines several great features in one convenient package.

When you buy the Baby Einstein Seek and Discover Activity Gym, you will receive a large mat (32 inches).  By itself, this is one of the top toys made today.  It allows your baby to have tummy time, which is essential for building strong neck and shoulder muscles.  It is also features fun Baby Einstein characters.  Babies respond to the bright, bold colors and shapes.  You also get a toy bar that fits over the mat.  You can attach any or all of the ten great toys that comes with the Activity Gym.  These include a safety mirror, a sun with rattle, an apple-shaped teeter, a duck with squeaker, a red bird with beads, Baby Einstein characters (which correspond to those on the mat) that crinkle, squeak, and rattle, a book with animal pictures, and more.  It wouldn’t be a Baby Einstein toy if it didn’t involve classical tunes!  Your baby can listen to nine classical selections by Bach and Mozart.  When your baby presses the center of the yellow star toy, he is treated to lights and music that soothes, entertains, and fascinates.

The Baby Einstein Seek and Discover Activity Gym allows your baby to explore to his heart’s content.  You can mix and match the accessories so your baby always has something new to play with.  The toys can also be attached to your child’s car seat or diaper bag handle – this way he can take the fun on the road.  There are so many uses for this activity gym and so many ways your baby will find to entertain himself.  Use it for play time, tummy time, bonding time, and even nap time.

In addition to fun, your child is also developing essential skills:  he’ll practice his gross motor skills, hand-eye coordination, cause and effect relationships, develop visual and auditory processing, be exposed to a variety to textures, sounds, and sights, and develop his most important tool, his imagination.  If you could only have one toy, this would be the one to own.
