Product Reviews

I thought it would be a good idea to write some product reviews of things we have gotten , and used with Molly.

AVENT bottle system- This is the top of the line for bottles these days, and on the high end of the price range. While, they are a good bottle, they have one flaw that I have found, and that is if you don't screw the rings on *just* so then it leaks like a sieve.

Fisher Price Link-A-Doos Musical Play Garden- This is a cute little play mat. I have found that most play mats here run in the $60-$70 range. This was on the high end of the range. I felt it was a bit overpriced, but she has enjoyed it. It comes with a few attachable toys, which she really hasn't played with. You can buy additional toys to attach. It doesn't travel well.

Tiny Love Noak's Ark Gymini Deluxe-this is a great play mat. It was given to us as a gift on the same day I purchased the Link-a-doos Play Garden. It has detachable toys, and folds up nice to go into a plastic cover with a handle. This mat travels really well. I highly recommend this mat. It is a bit pricey as most of the mats are. You can buy additonal toys to attach.

Fisher Price Brilliant Basics Line of toys- We have several toys from this line, and are quite happy with our choices. Molly seems to enjoy these the most. They are very reasonably priced.

Fisher Price Link-A-Doos Infant to Toddler Rocker We have really used this product. We don't attach the toys to it so much anymore. It has come in handy for so many times, and it can be used throughout the house. You can use any of the link-a-doos toys with this or the play garden. It was reasonably priced, and considering you can use this from infant to toddler it is worth every cent.

Baby Einstein DVD's & VHS Tapes- These are the greatest. Molly just loves watching her Baby Einstein DVD's & Tapes. She only has about 4 of them. We will definitely be getting more of them. You can rent them from the library, and find them used online on craigslist.org if you don't want to spend full price. She has some of their other products, but these are her favorite.

The Original Jolly Jumper Molly loves to bounce in her jolly jumper. It is a bit awkward getting her in, and out of it. We got her jumper second hand, but they are priced a bit high to me for what you get. We don't use the door clamp, as we don't have a proper door frame. I don't think we would use it anyhow, as it looks like it wouldn't be stable. We have hung it from a very sturdy ceiling hook. If you child loves to jump, and bounce then I do recommend getting one.
