We bought this for our granddaughter and placed her in it when she was 5 months old. Now 7 months, she can turn herself all around to play with the different activities. Everything that is on this activity center is fun & exciting for a baby! The colors are great & it is easy to clean. It is also very portable which is nice not to mention it was easy to put together…

Fun That Engages Their Imagination
A 2006 AMBY design award winner, the Discover and Play stimulates and entertains your baby by introducing her to colors, shapes, textures, animals, nature, language and movement. Nine interactive toys also aid development of age-appropriate sensory and motor skills. As she gently rocks and spins herself around in the 360 degree swivel seat, she'll build muscle strength and improve balance while exploring the pleasure of physical movement. This play system also encourages bi-lingual learning by introducing basic vocabulary words in a fun and interactive way. There's even a dragon hand puppet to let you get in on the fun, too.

Encourages Independent Play
Although adult supervision is recommended, the Discover and Play gives your baby the opportunity to independently play and explore in a safe, upright position. Baby will love pressing buttons and listening to music, or exploring different shapes and colors. He can even take a break and enjoy snacks placed on the circular tray--all when and how he wishes. Parents will also appreciate how easy it is to move this portable activity center from room to room, a real bonus when it's time to cook dinner or clean up.

Safe, Durable Construction
Intended for babies four months old and up to 30 pounds and 32 inches tall, the Discover and Play is sturdy, durable and safe. Three height positions make it a snap to adjust the activity center to fit your growing baby, and stationery kick-stands help limit mobility when it's time for more focused play or a quick snack. The Discover and Play is also easy to care for. Simply machine wash the cloth seat pad in cold water on the delicate cycle, and line dry. To clean the plastic or metal parts, just use a mixture of soap or detergent and water.

The Discover and Play has a 27-inch diameter and an overall height of 30 inches. It also weighs 14 pounds, and requires three "AA" batteries (not included).

About Graco
In 1942, Russell Gray and Robert Cone formed Graco Metal Products, in Philadelphia, PA. For 11 years, the firm fabricated machine and car parts for local manufacturers. In 1953, Gray left the firm, leaving Cone as sole owner. Cone decided to manufacture his own line of products, but had trouble coming up with ideas. Enter David Saint, an engineer, tinkerer, and stained glass artisan who worked for Graco. Saint, himself a father of nine, was intrigued when an associate told him how his wife would soothe their tired and cranky baby while swinging in a backyard glider swing. Acting on this inspiration, he went to the drawing board and 18 months of hard work later, the world's first wind-up infant swing, the Graco Swyngomatic, was born. Graco sold millions of Swyngomatics in the coming years, becoming one of the world's leading manufacturers of juvenile products in the process. Today, Graco is a Newell Rubbermaid company, with 1500 associates worldwide. While a half-century has brought many changes to Graco, their dedication and commitment to designing and manufacturing top-quality products remains, and continues on.

My 4-month-old cannot get enough!
I bought the "office" when my son was 3 months old. He was too little, so I put a wii board underneath his feet and placed him in the seat, stabilizing him with my arms while he practiced standing and only stared at the toys. He mostly enjoyed the standing part. A few days later, he started grabbing the yellow sun and "talking" to it. As time went on, he warmed to the other toys. And, the day he turned 4 months old, the flip SWITCHED and he suddenly fell IN-LOVE with the entire center. He figured out how to activate and interact with all of the toys, he spins himself around, he gets so excited that he starts yelling with joy! When I play with him, he will play in the activity center for 20 or 30 minutes. And if he is playing by himself, he is entertained for about 15 minutes, which is far longer than any other toy or activity.


Baby Einstein Discover
Grandson took to it immediately and looks for it as soon as he comes over. Even though he was 4 months when it arrived it reduced down low enough he could sit up in it and touch the base as long as I put a towel or blanket for his feet since he's not into wearing shoes yet.


Great Product
Very satisfied with this product. Did a lot of research before buying it and compared to the others that are cheaper, this is way much better. Colors look brighter in the pictures, but still cute and nice. Toys are nice and the circle part has sounds, music and talks both English and Spanish languages.The seat seems comfy and rotates, I actually feed my daughter while playing with the toys sometimes. Very easy to clean.


Best exersaucer I've seen
My daughter loves this! We started using it around 4 months (when her back and neck got nice and strong) and now at six months she still loves it and uses it every day. She plays happily in it while I am getting ready in the morning and when I am working in the kitchen in the evening. It gives her the opportunity to be upright and see what's going on, but have a good way to entertain herself as well. The older she gets the more she enjoys it because she can do more of the activities herself instead of needing me to show her how. I shopped around a lot and this is the best one I saw. Some of the activity centers really don't have much on the tray for the kids to do, play with, or learn. This one is really great. Oh and for some reason my daughter loves the alligator puppet. She will sit and kiss and talk to it forever.


First Timer
I wanted my son to have a variety of materials to touch while playing. All of the exersaucers I saw in the stores had objects made only of hard plastic (probably to make it easy to clean). This had soft toys and hard ones that all made different types of noises. I am very pleased with it!! The volume on the music/animal sounds is kind of loud even on the lower volume setting.

@ From a Real Customer Experience …

My daughter loves her bouncy seat. At first, it was the only place (other than our arms) that she would sleep. After her 3rd month she started using the toys and at 5mos we are still enjoying it. The vibration feature is another plus. One tip though the music has two settings, motion activated and continuous play. The continuous play wears the batteries down quickly. Bouncy seats really are “must haves” for parents…

Product Description:
Whether home or away, this Pack 'N Play Playard helps you give Baby a safe place to play. It has a strong, stable frame and airy mesh walls so Baby's comfortable and 4 interactive bug toys to keep him entertained. The roomy square design gives him plenty of play space to crawl, explore, and figure out what to do with all those developing muscles. It sets up and folds in less than a minute and comes with a handy carry bag, so you can easily bring it with you to your yard, the beach, Grandma's, or anywhere the day might take you.
Amazon.com Product Description:
The first thing to note about Graco’s pack ‘n play is that it is larger than many playards. This colorful, mesh-sided pen unfolds to a 38" x 38" square, rather than the rectangular shape of most others on the market. While this equates to needing more space, it also means that baby is provided with a bigger (and sturdier) area to play in. The playard’s stability comes from a four-footed metal frame, which-along with the four corner feet-gives it eight points of contact with the ground.

easy portability
The included bag makes storing and carrying easy.
Setup takes one person only minutes, from snapping the frame in place to securing the rigid, padded-top floor (cutely decorated with a fun bug pattern) with the Velcro fasteners. Breaking it down again is just as simple, and there is a convenient nylon storage/carrying bag included for easy portability. Bundled up, the pack ‘n play measures a compact 38 inches long by 10 inches square, but at nearly 24 pounds, it might be heavier than expected.

Baby will appreciate the extra space, the friendly bug motif, being able to see mom and dad through the soft mesh walls, and the four interactive toys-one on each side. There’s a sun with a mirror at its center, teaching baby self-awareness. The ladybug’s body houses a squeak toy. Show them how to beep it to teach ear, eye, and hand coordination. Both the bee and the butterfly have wings that "flap" inside the playpen-one set creates a rattling noise when moved, while the other makes a crinkling sound. Baby will enjoy the different sounds, textures, and stimulations the toys offer, while parents will enjoy not having to pick them up or losing them.

Care for the pack ’n play is easy: use a damp cloth or sponge with household soap to wipe vinyl, plastic, and metal parts; the bag can be machine washed and either line dried or tumbled on low. Should you need to replace the bag or floor pad, both are available for purchase separately.


Features:
  • Large and roomy 36" x 36" square play space for little one to play
  • Sets up and folds in less than a minute for use anywhere and everywhere
  • Durable frame weighs less than 25 pounds and airy mesh on all sides provide maximum ventilation
  • Convenient carrying bag for no-fuss travel and storage
  • Easy to clean

I love it.
It really is super easy to open and close.
I regularly watch my 10 month old nephew (couple times a week), so I don't always have the playpen open. Every time nephew comes home... matter of 2 minutes... out of the closet, out of the bag, open... DONE.

He loves it too.

Very spacious and it certainly looks nice.


Convenient
I like the bright colors that this has to offer. I also like the convenience of it being a fold up play yard. Would definitely recommend to a friend!


playyard
Our little guy loves it. So much more room for him to move around than a pack and play. Each side wall has a different activity for him to play with. He is so content playing in it! Great price at amazon too!


Well made, great value, and the black option looks great!
Roomy, very well built, easy to set up and break down. Decent padding for a playard.

I bought the black colored option ($[...]) because I wanted something more neutral than the primary-colored one, and the pastel version is quite expensive for some reason. It does not have the play toys on the side, but I was looking for open views as well. I also purchased the fitted padded sheet (acts like a mattress pad) and regular green cotton jersey fitted sheet....Looks fabulous and is plenty cushy for napping!


Love It
I got this for my grand daughter and thought I was getting the other graco play pen - the playard one. Not sure if it's Amazon or my mistake. Anyway was going to send it back but reading the reviews, seems that the playard one may be smaller. So kept the one I was sent. My daughter was adamant that she did not want her daughter imprisoned and she would hate it - whereas I said, I need to put her somewhere safe when I can't be watching her or I want to be out in the garden working. The new generation seems to thing that everything should revolve around the child, versus the child fitting into the family environment. Turns out I was right - granddaughter loves it - for 15-20 minutes, I get to cook dinner or do other things and my daughter is using it as well - realizing the advantages. Plus Baby K is just starting to pull herself up to a standing position and this is a safe place to do it. Would recommend to anyone.

Great Product
The engineering on this is really good. We use it for visiting baby's and it is very compact when not in use. Setup is easy and not complicated.


Great Simple Pack & Play with what you and your baby need! :)
I love this pack & play. We wanted to find something to match the Graco Melbourne Swing, the colors of this Match PERFECTLY, just without the pattern, and no infant changer... So we saved over half the cost with this choice, and it still works and looks great :)
I def recommend this! :)


served the purpose
We were very happy with the pack n play, we needed a crib for our new 3 month old grandaughter who was visiting for a couple of weeks. We don't have a lot of extra room and the pack n play was just the ticket. We used the bassinet and it worked fine. I'm hoping to use it as she gets bigger and comes for more visits. The only problem that I had is when you put the sheet on the mattress it makes it bump up where the pad would fold for storage. It wasn't a big issue for an infant, but might not be too comfortable for her as she gets a little bigger.


looks cute
Good simple play pen. The base is a bit weak, so when baby is standing up, the base crumples a bit through the bars that hold it open, but it works well enough. I would have been upset if I'd spent more than on it though.


Easy to fold up, baby sleeps like ... a baby
Folds up and packs compact with little effort. Sturdy construction. The enclosed pad works great too. Not much more I can say.
