Fisher-Price Ocean Wonders Aquarium Bouncer

@ From a Real Customer Experience …

My 2 month old son has tons of fun in his bouncy seat. I can put him in it and he will be entertained for at least 20 minute stretches which allows me to shower, make dinner, etc. He loves to kick and bounce and I actually caught him smiling at the little fish! It was EASY to put together and does not drain batteries too quickly. I would (and have)recommend it highly…

Editorial Review :
Baby spent nine months floating around in her/his own "aquarium," listening to the deep-sea sounds of Mommy’s tummy--so why wouldn’t she love to tune in to the gurgles and splashes of this Aquarium Bouncer?

Four selections of music and sounds allow ocean waves, a babbling brook, summer rain, or lullabies to wash over Baby.

The lightweight bouncy seat features an ocean-themed fabric seat with harness restraint (machine washable), calming vibrations, a baby- (or parent-) activated toy bar, and a pretend tank filled with swimming fish, bubbles, colored lights, and music. Infants can bat at fish and seahorse to activate music, lights, and sounds (and stimulate sensory development, by the way).

Four selections of music and sounds (with volume control) allow ocean waves, a babbling brook, summer rain, or lullabies to wash over Baby. The removable toy bar features brightly colored toys with spinners, teethers, and textures to stimulate baby’s sight and touch.

Baby’s going to be a veritable genius before s/he is through with this seat! Discontinue use when baby reaches 25 pounds or can sit upright unassisted. Four D batteries required (not included). Phillips head screwdriver needed for assembly (also not included). --Emilie Coulter

Features:
  • The tank features two lights and two air jets so that two fish kiss and a starfish spins
  • Two hanging toys feature bright colors, textures, a spinner and removable teethers to develop baby's sense of sight and touch
  • Two modes of play with volume control: baby can activate three sound effects and short songs when he bats at toys
  • Age range birth to 3 Years

Satisfied
My son is not a big fan of being stationary. So anything that I have to buckle him into is not his favorite. However, he has spent a considerable amount of time in this seat while my husband and I eat dinner or whenever I have a less time consuming task to take care of.

I do like the bouncer myself. It's very cute and now that my baby has figured out how to turn on the music, he might be more willing to spend some time in it.
Also it would be nice if the attached toys were interchangeable with other toys.


Ocean Wonders
Every bouncer has its pros & cons:

pros:
* my 3 month old loves staring at the bubbles and seems mesmerized by the spinning starfish
* has a 10 minute self-timer so it acts as a good reminder to switch activities for your baby

cons:
* battery compartment is located underneath the seat making battery changes awkward
* uses 4 D-batteries and we were constantly going through them!
* toybar needs to be completely removed every time you put the child in & out of the seat -- if they could make the toybar swing out, it would make life more convenient!


One of the best bouncers you can get
This is for the Ocean Wonders Aquarium Bouncer. I love all the Fisher Price bouncers and toys in general, but this has to be one of their best inventions yet. This bouncer keeps my baby enterained for HOURS, allowing me to easily get things done. When my 3 month old is feeling active, he loves to sit in the bouncer and grab/kick the hanging fish and seahorse. When he's in the mood to relax, he will lay back and stare at the swimming fish/bubbles. When he wants to sleep, simply switch on the vibration and he's out in a few minutes. If you are looking for a good bouncer that will actually keep baby entertained without you constantly having to "bounce" him/her, look no further!


excellent baby item, only one complaint
Love this bouncer! On our 3rd baby and all 3 of them have loved this seat. I have washed the fabric seat dozens of times and it has not shrunk, faded or worn in any way. It's very easy to slip off for washing as well. My ONLY complaint is the water level has dropped to about half what it was when purchased 6 1/2 years ago. It's unfortunate that Fisher-Price makes such a great product that lasts the test of time as far as the fabric, construction and electronics go. Wish they could make one that doesn't lose water. I figure the star and the fish will stop spinning/moving as the water level continues to drop.


great for fussy babies

I absolutely love this bouncer. I looked at alot of bouncers and found this one to be the cutest. My very fussy newborn loves it. She used to cry all of her waking moments but now she is like a different baby and I believe this bouncer made the difference. She loves looking at the fishes and starfish, and the vibrations really calm her down. Some reviewers have said the bubbles are noisy, but I find the sound very pleasing and baby likes it. The music that it comes with is very nice also. This aqaurium bouncer is the best thing I own and I highly recommend it for very fussy babies.
