Luv U Zoo Musical Activity Mat

We LOVE our Fisher Price Luv U Zoo Musical Activity Mat! ... er... Let me clarify... My 4 month old son, Cameron, loves it!

Last month we were selected to review the Fisher Price Luv U Zoo Bouncer, which we had an amazing experience with! So when I found out I had the opportunity to review the Luv U Zoo Activity Mat I jumped all over it.

The mat was delivered to us a few weeks ago. Upon deliver, I cracked open the box and set-up the mat right away. The set-up was easy-peasy. It took not even 10 minutes to get everything in working order. The only problem I had once I set it up was that a part was missing. The musical mirror that hangs from the middle of the overhang structure was missing. We notified Fisher Price. They were quick to rectify the problem, and sent out a new part!

My son loves this mat. He loves to lie in the center of the mat and stare at himself in the mirror. He also recently discovered the art of rolling. He loves to roll on to his tummy and chew on the monkeys attached to the side of the mat. The monkeys are perfect for teething infants!

This mat is geared towards infants of all ages. The toys are in easy reach, and if your baby is rolling the bright colorful mat is sure to keep them entertained.  I've encountered one too many playmats for infants that have toys attached to the overhang structure that are ridiculously out of reach for the infant. With this playmat you don't have that problem.

If you are looking for a shower gift for an expectant Mom, I would highly recommend purchasing this mat. There is a deluxe version at Babies R Us for $99, which is an amazing deal!

My family and I love this product, and I'm sure you will too!

Why I Love The Fisher Price Luv U Zoo Bouncer

Right before the birth of my son, my husband and I spent a good portion of an afternoon lugging out my daughters old swing and bouncer from storage, and setting it up. We had clearly remembered how much our daughter had loved them both, and just assumed that our son would share that same love. Our assumption couldn't have been more wrong.

Since birth our son has dealt with colic and silent reflux issues. He never  liked the swing or the bouncer. Wouldn't sleep on his own. Didn't like being put down. The only place he wanted to be was either on the breast or being held. Showering in peace just wasn't happening.

One day I was at my wits end and decided to head out to the store... I wound up coming home with yet another bouncer. Except this bouncer was different then the traditional one, it had an aquarium attached to it. The bouncer while it lulled Cam, it didn't soothe him the way it should have.

When I found out I was being sent the Fisher Price Luv U Zoo Bouncer to test out, I'm not going to lie... I felt skeptical. It wasn't that I didn't have faith in the product. I did. I just was at that point where I didn't think there was a means to an end.

The day the Luv U Zoo Bouncer arrived, I rushed to put it together. I can't even begin to tell you how easy this bouncer was to assemble. It had a limited amount of parts, and the instructions were straight forward and to the point. My son was having another one of his off days when I received the bouncer, and his mood was quickly enlightened upon being put in the Luv U Zoo Bouncer. He was so enthralled with the monkey, koala and giraffe.

He doesn't care much for the chair vibration or the music, but he loves to smack the koala and monkey to hear them rattle. It's adorable to watch him play and thoroughly enjoy himself in this bouncy chair!

The Luv U Zoo has truly been a lifesaver. I can finally get work done, shower, clean or cook dinner without having to hold, bounce or rock him. Who knew this bouncer would've become my extra set of hands?! Certainly not me!

I would highly recommend this product to anyone. It's the perfect baby shower gift or toy for an infant. You can pick it up at a lot of major stores, including Babies'R'Us; and it's fairly inexpensive.
