> 24 hourOur twins love this playmat, they would instantly stop crying when we placed them underneath it. Perfect for various play, toys can be exchanged which helps entertain the kids over time. Additionally, our little ones love to play with the toys individually. An added plus was the option to be able to toss the mat in the laundry machine, it does not fade.

> 24 hourPLEASE READ! I hate giving one-star ratings just to flag attention, but I feel this is important. We loved this play gym for several months. My daughter took a liking to it at a very early age. That said, as a first time parent, the design of it never struck me as a problem until today, when my 9-month old very quickly and easily pulled a button off (They are used to secure the cross-supports to the base of the play-gym) and popped it in her mouth. Luckily, she was being supervised at the time and I was able to scoop the button out of her mouth before she could attempt to swallow it. It would have only taken three seconds of me turning my back or not paying attention for things to have gotten worse. I inspected the other three buttons and found two to be pretty secure, the the third was loose and I was able to pull it right off. A product made for a baby should NEVER contain buttons or parts that small, especially if they could potentially come off. I have already contacted Genius Babies to ask them to immediately remove the buttons from this design. If you are the happy owner of one of these, Id advise you ditch this play gym altogether or at least remove the buttons. Edit: A representative from Genius Babies called me the day after I sent feedback from their website. He was very apologetic for the problem. He asked me several questions about the incident and assured me that my message was being forwarded to several different departments and they would do everything they could to fix the problem in future production as well as follow protocol for warning current owners of this flaw. Though Im still irked about the buttons being there in the first place, Im at least happy they are taking this incident very seriously and are doing everything they can to avoid a potentially hazardous situation from occurring with one of their products. 2nd Edit: Im really disappointed to read a more recent reviewer mentioning that Genius Babies left the buttons on the design and simply used larger ones on this play gym instead of foregoing them altogether. I find that to be a poor solution to the problem at hand. PLENTY of play gyms/infant toys dont use buttons and other small parts because theyre just not necessary. I cant say that Id ever consider supporting this company as it seems like a haphazard attempt to fix to what could be a very serious problem. As for those who have dismissed my review saying it seemed like their buttons were sewn on well, this goes to show that quality control is lacking in Genius Babies products. I recommend Fisher Prices Luv-U-Zoo Play Gym, which we received as a gift and my daughter really loved it. And NO small parts on it.

> 24 hourProbably my littles favorite toy. Super easy to wash, dry, and put back together again. After 10 washes or so it starts to fade a bit. However the fantastic colors are totally engaging for my daughter. Weve taken this with us on trips and appreciate the bag it fits so nicely in. We change out toys pretty regularly, so most of the included toys have been found less interesting than bigger toys, but were fun for a few days. Would absolutely recommend this product for any kiddo. Also, I love that this is a gender neutral toy built for babys actual development and not for a boy or a girl.

> 24 hourGreat product for the price. I was hesitant buying something for so much but it was worth it and I would definitely purchase again. I bought the product because of its white, black, and red colors since that is what babies can see at a young age. Very easy to clean and set up. I didn’t realize that one of the toys sings “twinkle twinkle little star” until after it went through the washing machine and dryer. It still works great though!

> 24 hourMy 1 month old absolutely adores this playmat. She was intrigued by it at 2 weeks old and now can spend up to 30 minutes hitting the toys and observing all the patterns. The only reason I took one star off is because the material on the mat is pretty rough so its not ideal for tummy time.

> 24 hourThis play gym is awesome. Not only is it red, black, and white for baby to see, but the toys are interactive. It starts on one end with a teether, a caterpillar that squeaks, a flower that has a soft mirror, a panda that has a music box that sings Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, and a ball that has a bell in it. All of these toys are removable too. So baby can play with them in other places. The mat is approximately 30 wide, but its plenty of room for baby. I am very pleased with this product.
