Fisher Price Precious Planet Happy Giraffe Bouncer: A Product Review

The Fisher Price Precious Planet Collection of baby gear is one of the cutest collections I've seen. All of the items in the collection feature bright and vibrant colors, and adorable animals. Most of the products are also fairly gender neutral, which will allow for more versatility and also enable parents to hand down items to future children of a different gender.

No matter how cute a particular collection of baby gear is, it must also be functional and durable. I have to say that the Fisher Price Precious Planet Collection is of exceptional quality and should make any parent happy. The Happy Giraffe Bouncer is one of the cutest items in the collection. It is a lightweight, yet very sturdy bouncer designed to keep baby entertained and give mom a little break. It's perfect for those times when you have to put the baby down to do something, but you don't want baby to get bored.

The bouncer features a removable toy bar which includes a lion who plays music and makes fun sounds, a monkey that jingles and a hippo rattle. The toys have rings attached to them which make it easy for little hands to grasp onto the fun animal toys. The colors are bright and cheery and the pad is machine washable which makes clean up a breeze. It also features a soothing vibration mode which I've found to be helpful to soothe a fussy baby or even help your little one fall asleep. The bouncer requires 1 "D" battery for the vibration mode to work. One important thing to note is that I've noticed that the bouncer does not drain batteries quickly. I've been using this bouncer for 3 months now and I have not yet had to change the battery. I've even been known to forget and leave the vibration switch on overnight, but still have been happy to find it working in the morning.

Your baby will love to bounce in this fun and colorful seat. I've found that unlike many other bouncers, it is completely safe for baby. My son is very active and really can get himself bouncing quite energetically, but he's never bounced too high, or gone too fast like he had previously in other bouncers. The design of this particular bouncer seems to be very safe and sturdy. The product is suggested for babies up to 25 pounds, so you will have a long time of fun and safe bouncing with this product.

If you are interested in purchasing this product, it is available at Target, Babies R Us, Amazon.com and other major retailers.
