ETA Tint love is brand Gymini Super Deluxe Light & Sound Playgym
Tiny Love make cute play gyms!
DD loves her Fisher Price Rainforest one, its on sale now at Big W. It has lights music and calming naturesounds...Very cool!!
I have just bought a Bright Stars playmat with a tummy time cushion. It is not all bells and whistles but why I loved it is the size- it is actually quite compact so i am going to put it in my baby bag and take it everywhere so I can put bubs on the floor if I need to... it was only $20 at the Big W sale
May be a good 2nd playmat if FIL's budget is $100. I have some large ones too for home with toys and lights/music etc
Happy baby shower!
Thanks everyone! I'll toodle off to the BigW baby sale (if it is still on???) and check out their playmats.
We just purchased the Fisher Price "Rainforest" from the Big W sale. It is on special for $88. The sale is on until Feb 25...
Happy Shopping!!!
the biggest one possible. Once they start wriggling those little ones are almost useless.
scope out Deals Direct - i got a huge one (prolly similar to a few together), has a water play mat (so mat with water and floaties in it) at one end, tunnel with toys in the middle, and touch mat at the other with light up things and music. even with delivery it was less than $90.folds up into a bag for transport so we'llbe able to take it other places as well as at home.:
DH also grabbed one from Big W last week for $98 - is in the catalogue - looks like a little box with two arches over it but the mat bit has heaps of different ways to fold it for different activities...
doh' double post!
BG, was it anything like this?

oscaroscar I have the jollybaby one, only mine didn't come with the arch with hanging toys (I wish it did). The toys hang from the tunnel on mine. My DS hated the tunnel as the floor is that crinkly material. He loved the round part of the mat though with the music. The water part of ours is now filled with mould and had to be thrown away.
Thanks for the info Ozstar :D.
oooh wow that ones awesome!
BG I saw that box one, very cool!
Ohhh I've seen the Big W box type ones... BG have you unwrapped it and played with it? I like the pink one but I wasn't sure if it was going to be big enough??? It was $99 in Brissie but only two left.
My mum layby'd the box one for me yesterday!! Looks cool and mum pulled it out of the pack and played with it and thought it was awesome!
OK I am almost convinced to get the pink box one... if BG says its favourable!
I like the fact that you can use it as a bed as well when you go to other ppl's places. 2 in one really. Also with a toddler running around and a baby on the floor, the box kinda is a protection!!
I just wonder how long til she outgrows it???
we have the jolly baby one at home already, the big w one is on layby:
i figure, being able to be used as a bed and things, it would be great to throw in the car as an extra take along (it doesn't seem "chunky") so that we can have something when out if she doesn't want to sleep in the capsule... or if, like lots of kidlets, she falls asleep while playing! lol
i honestly can't pass any judgement as i haven't played with it yet
Thanks BG. My gut tells me to go with the biggest one I can find, probably the Jolly baby one, because we already have a portable cot. Thanks for your help!
