The Total Playground Kick 'n Play activity gym by Tiny Love won't rock your baby to sleep. It won't sing lullabies or give her a backrub. But it will keep her entertained in a safe, colorful envirionment from birth through about ten months, beginning with a duck chime, which newborns love. Five cute hanging toys stimulate vision. An extra-large mirror encourages baby to exercise her neck as she tries to see her reflection. Tiny Love's reputation for details is evident in this product--even the mirror is edged with pictures to capture your little one's attention.

The family of Gymini activity products is celebrating its 15th birthday, and this multi-sensory mat is a step in the next direction. As baby grows, she'll reach out to bat the toys, or kick the Kick & Play™ response pad, strengthening her leg muscles. The kicking action rewards her with music or flashing lights.

The award-winning gym (Parents Top 5) is designed with a Noah's Ark theme, and offers a generous 17 developmental activities, including rattles, bells,3-D kite, lift-and-discover sun, squeaking sheep, and a mirror for tummy time play. Baby is challenged to discover many cause-and-effect actions, which helps in the development of sharp cognitive skills. Soothing classical music provides a restful, calming effect, too. What's more, read what its developer has to say about the carefully chosen sounds incorporated into this mat:

The classical music selections contribute to baby's language development. Both are made up of a sequence of sounds that together compose "musical sentences."
Both verbal and musical sentences are received by the brain as a sequence of sounds, and baby learns to process and organize these sequences into a meaningful form.
 
 
On-the-go parents will appreciate its fold-and-go capability. Plus, the edges of this spacious padded playmat snap securely into place, creating a cozy play enclosure.
