Fisher-Price Colourful Carnival Spacesaver Jumperoo

Product Information

This interactive activity bouncer is packed full of lights, sounds and music that will keep baby occupied as they jump and play! Looks like a great investment, I considered one of these when Monkey was little but they were so big I think if I had, had found a foldable one I would have been sold! There’s a light up keyboard-esque panel on the front of the Jumperoo, which features a variety of tunes. Being able to fold it up and pop it in the car for a short holiday proved to be very useful indeed as we have never taken any large toys away before.

I love the fact that we were able to reclaim some of our lounge space once little one had gone to bed. It is also square-ish in shape which would make it easier to put in a corner or up against the wall, whereas others are usually round. Keeps my little boy entertained for a good while, he loves it that much he’s never happy when it’s time to come out! Instantly noticeable is the fact the Jumperoo is really light and no where near as bulky as the original.Updated space saver styling lets you easily fold the whole frame flat for portable play or space-saving storage. The arch seems quite a distance away from the seat so I think smaller babies would struggle to reach forward to grab at the animals. The original doesn’t only take up a lot of floor space but it takes up a lot of space when it is dismantled.

The interactive command centre has colourful lights, sounds and music that keep babies entertained while bouncing. The other thing that I was slightly disappointed with, is the fact that there is only one spring, at the back. However Evelyn still seemed to thoroughly enjoy it and really liked the fact when she bounced it set of the lights and music on the little piano at the front. Instructions are included but to be honest, it’s pretty self explanatory, it’s quite obvious just from looking at the parts where they need to go.It would be great to see the original rainforest design which has two suspension wires but in a foldable capacity, other than that this product is fantastic. This meant that whilst away from home, baby still had something to entertain her when she didn't have access to any of her usual toys and was in a space that was not particularly baby-friendly! It has offered us everything we need for this stage and beyond – it gives me a little bit of time without a baby in my arms to get some work done or cook the dinner. A lot of the features are the same though such as adjustable spring, musical buttons and attached teethers.

Whilst this did make the room tidier at the end of the day, I did find myself leaving it up most of the time so not sure the sacrifice was worth it. Also I had to actually use scissors to force the other joints apart as I couldn't get them off any other way. L liked jumperoo but not for long, we put it in the corner and it was there for couple of month storing it though was a nightmare, so i like the fact that this one could be folded! By providing the opportunity to be hands free for periods of time, safe in the knowledge that your baby is entertained and happy!

You will have also noticed that they take up quite a lot of space, which if you don't have an abundance of space or your living space is already taken up by little people toys this can be a little off putting. There are many reasons behind it like music, good battery, soft not only that babies feel comfortable while playing with it. However my husband who loves doing things like this decided to assemble it and it was all up and ready in about 5 minutes. Not only did it give my baby the opportunity to become more independent, it also developed her motor skills with all of the activities available at her fingertips.
