I thought that I'd start off writing guides & reviews on things that I know about & love. Things that I use &/or buy often. If I have something that I LOVE & CANNOT live without; I want to share that with people. I am an information hound & a shopaholic. These are a powerful pair! Knowledge is everything! I figure if I need or want it I have to know about it. Most everything that I purchase; I research online or in the stores first. I also read product reviews & guides such as this one that are from the consumer. Manufacturers guides are helpful, too. But I like to know what the customer likes or dislikes about that product. Pros & Cons. So with that said, I will start off here on my reviews of the things I know, use & cannot live without:

Baby Toys....That's a topic I know TONS about. I need to narrow this down a lot because I can go on for days. Let's start with the Fisher Price Rainforest Jumperoo.

This is an awesome toy. My husband & I were just saying that the Jumper was one of our "Best Baby Buys". We have three kids so we know our toys. I purchased ours when my son was around three months old. He was just getting entertained at the idea of the world around him. I already had the Rainforest swing & baby Mobile over his crib so I knew he'd love this fun design. 

Assembley: It was a little tricky to put together but it was okay because I had my 4 year old help me. He's a whizz. :o) 4.5/5 STARS

Usage/Safety: There are three height levels on this Jumper so that it can be used for a long time. You will get your money out of it trust me. We are still using it and my baby is 9 months & 20+ lbs. It is very simple to change the height to your growing baby's needs. Just a few quick snaps & it's done. At first you'll probably need a pillow underneath his/her little feet because they won't be able to touch. But once they realize that they can bounce....GAME ON! You can then remove the pillow underneath because they will bouncy like a maniac. So funny. 5/5 stars! 

Entertainment/Exercise: The toys on this Jumper are very entertaining!! Lots of bright colors, textures & sounds. Electronic toys & jumping activate sounds music & lights!! These are great for all baby's developmental growths. I admit that the sounds can be annoying when the adults are trying to have a conversation. But luckily there are several volume levels & an on/off switch. I haven't had to replace the batteries yet, either. There fun toys attached such as bobbling elephants, monkey from a vine, parrot, Peekaboo Tiger, Ball of Beads, spinning lizard rattle, tree frogs, & dragonflies. There are even soft ones that hang above baby so he/she can bat at them. Too cute! Now that my son is getting bigger he can catch them. :o) All of the toys can easily be removed to wash. You can also remove toy sections to use that area for snacks. The seat is a red tree frog with big eyes. It swivels all the way around & back again in a 360. Super! I liked the fact that it has a high back as well. It helps when baby is still a bit wobbly. The seat cover also comes off easily to wash. Which in my house is about once a week. 5/5 Stars!!!

Travel/Storage: We have taken this thing everywhere. Anytime we are going to family picnics, parties, get togethers, etc etc. we always had out Jumparoo. My son just loves it. At first I didn't know how to break it down for traveling or storing away. (I never needed to store it) I lost the directions & it seemed to be a hassle to try to find copies online. Luckily, I drive an Expedition & it fits in the back with no troubles. I found out how by mistake when moving the darn thing into the bathroom so I could have a peaceful shower while my son was 'exercising'.  :o)  It isn't that big of a deal. Although it is tough to get through doorways it you ever want to move it from room to room. I always managed though. 4/5 Stars for Mobility due to it being cumbersome even after you figure out how to break it down. :o) 

My overall rating is 4.7 out of 5 Stars. Super Toy for the money. Great Entertainment & Exercise for Baby. And Mostly it is SAFE!
